The University of North Carolina (UNC) requires applicants to meet specific eligibility criteria. For undergraduate programs, students must complete a rigorous high school curriculum, including four units of English, math, science, and social studies. A minimum GPA of 2.5 is required, though competitive applicants often exceed this.
Standardized test scores (SAT/ACT) may be optional, depending on the program. Graduate programs require a bachelor’s degree, a competitive GPA (typically 3.0 or higher), and relevant test scores (GRE/GMAT). International students must demonstrate English proficiency via TOEFL or IELTS. Additional requirements, such as essays or interviews, vary by program.
