2024-2025 School Year:

Guarantee Scholars Program

This program is called the Guarantee Scholars Program. The program provides its recipients the opportunity to attend UNCG while accruing little to no debt as they complete their degree. The Guarantee requires the following from their applicants:

• Recent high school or early college graduate (Graduated in December 2024 or later)
• Weighted GPA of 3.5 or greater
• North Carolina resident for tuition purposes (determined by the Residency Determination Service)
• Incoming freshman for the Fall 2025 semester
• Have an SAI of -1,500 (determined by FAFSA reporting)

Our program application is open now! If you know students who meet these criteria, please encourage them to complete the application as soon as possible, as acceptance is competitive and limited. The application can be found on our website. We do utilize FAFSA and Admissions application information to help verify eligibility, but students can still apply now even if they are waiting for admittance or FAFSA completion. The deadline for program applications is March 15th, 2025.

For more information about the UNCG Guarantee Program, please visit our website: guarantee.uncg.edu. We hope you'll help us share this opportunity far and wide, and we hope to see some of your students apply to this amazing program. Thank you in supporting students in their journey to higher education!

Guarantee Scholars Program
