Graduate Admissions Application Portal Gets a Makeover

Beginning Monday, Jan. 29, visitors to the Graduate School’s student application portal will find a redesigned site with simpler navigation that is more mobile-friendly. 

The change also replaces the unique user name with the applicant’s email address and sends a confirmation message to that address for validation as part of the registration process.  Note: Existing users will need to use their old user name the first time they sign on to the new system.

The application portal allows prospects and applicants to:

  • Submit information
  • RSVP to an event
  • Ask questions
  • View emails
  • Apply for admission or re-admission
  • Monitor application status
  • View the decision letter
  • Confirm intent to enroll

Effectively Recruit McNair Scholars

Categories: AdmissionsFeatured

The Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program helps prepare eligible participants for doctoral studies through involvement in research and scholarly projects. Participants are typically from disadvantaged backgrounds, generally from underrepresented segments of society, and have strong academic potential.

Staff in the Office of Graduate Admissions actively recruits McNair Scholars at the McNair regional conference each summer, and routinely waives their application fees. Note that the fee waiver must be requested by the applicant prior to submitting the application for admission. Applicants should contact Maryanne Maree-Sams at MaryanneMaree-Sams@uncc.edu or 704-687-7243 to request the fee waiver; they must also email her a letter of participation as a McNair Scholar.

Maryanne Maree-Sams also has access to the McNair Scholars database of participants. If you are interested in recruiting exemplary students to your graduate program, please contact Maryanne directly.
