UNCW Seahawk Links provide a support system to new students through weekly meetings, they work in conjunction with UNI class instructors to bring new students campus news and events and programming, they assist new students during Move-In, UNCWelcome, and Family Weekend, and they serve as an excellent resource for campus events and information.

Are all incoming students paired with a UNCW Seahawk Link?

No. Only incoming freshmen are paired with a UNCW Seahawk Link.

When will we find out who our UNCW Seahawk Link is?

Freshmen will be notified by the start of classes.

What can I do if I have been assigned a UNCW Seahawk Link and we don't get along, can I be reassigned?
