The application for the 2020-2021 school year will open on August 1, 2020 for students in grades 6-10.
Visiting your possible future home for your next educational journey is an exciting time as you consider where to apply for your collegiate career. However, during this year and impacts from campus closures, we have shifted our college tours to a virtual platform. Join us throughout the day on October 23 on social media and webinar, to learn more about UNCG! From 10AM-2PM we will takeover our Instagram (@crosbyscholars) covering a variety of topics on college life at UNCG. We will also host a Live College Panel at 4:00 PM where you will have the opportunity to ask your specific questions to current college students.
We know that nothing can replace the experience of physically touring a college campus, but we do hope we can help you connect with a variety of schools through a virtual platform. To encourage you to participate, we will award credit for the College Fair/Visit requirement if you attend 4 out of the Live College Panels offered between now and December. You will need to register for each Live Panel and attend at least 4 to receive credit.
**SENIORS: The college panel will count for 1 our of 4 of the required college visits needed for the College Fair/Visit requirement due October 31st. You can combine these with additional College-A-Day sessions or complete virtual visits on your own to receive credit for the College Fair/Visit requirement.
