I loved UNCG for a multitude of reasons. My ability to do education credits for working and observing in the on-campus audiology clinic was pivotal for my career as it gave me a real taste of what patient care could be like. Additional, being a university clinic, they saw very obscure, rare cases that gave me the motivation to specialize.
The campus is easy to navigate, very social, and diverse. There is somewhere and someone for anyone here. Non-judgmental students make it an easy place to be yourself.... Read More
One drawback- the surrounding areas and some professors have that certain "southern" feature of prejudice. Beware if you're from out-of-state like me!

I loved going to UNCG. They offered a great variety of classes, allowed me to take some classes online, and had a beautiful campus that I enjoyed in person. They also had excellent student support in terms of mentorship and counseling. There were always open computer labs all over campus for my study and printing needs.

This degree was basically useless to me. Looking back, I learned no real-world, useful work skills. It was all indoctrination into a specific ideology and mindset. Even when prompted to give my own ideas or opinions, it always felt like there was only one acceptable answer. I even feared at times that my grade would be impacted if I had the "wrong" viewpoint on something.

UNCG is a pretty good school. Most of the professors and other staff are nice and knowledgeable. Campus is generally nice as well, it is very walk-able and crime is never really an issue. There are a lot of majors to choose from, and financial aid is available as well. Tuition costs are little lower than some of the other UNC schools which is nice.

UNCG is a school where the professors genuinely care about teaching their students how to make an impact on their communities. I was extremely satisfied with my experience at this college because it showed me how to go out into the world I live in and make a difference as a sociology major. I enjoyed every moment there, especially the on-campus classes I attended.

UNCG was okay for what it is. At the time I didn't realize how big of an impact that fact it is a commuter campus would be on how the campus felt on weekends. I know a lot has changed since I was there and I think the updated dorms probably help how the campus looks visually because the constant construction didn't help the lack luster vibes on campus. You can make the experience at UNCG good but it's a lot more work than I think it would be at other colleges.

I graduated from this university as a means to an end. I needed a degree and this was the best way to get one. It was useful for what I needed and wasn’t considerably difficult. I enjoyed the classes and my professors. I would certainly do it again because I was able to get what I needed

The MSIA (MS in Informatics and Analytics) program at UNCG is a complete mess. I cannot recommend strongly enough that you avoid it. What became very obvious to me within my first two classes is that this program aggressively recruits international students (I was one of very few Americans in my cohort) for the purpose of raking in as much money as possible. They do not care about instructional quality or even if you graduate. This is purely a "credentialing" program. I learned more from DataCamp... Read More

Worst academic experience of my life. Previous degree in related field. Transferred in from another design school to finish this degree. Design majors need heavy software skills and projects for a portfolio. Almost all the work consists of writing papers. No design firm is paying you to write a paper after graduation unless you are in journalism or research. Very little software and hardware experience so I took classes at yet another school to learn that side. I was in groups with seniors who didnt... Read More

Do your research. This school does everything BUT let you know of their policies until you are in a situation where that policy affects you. It took them a year to send me my degree because I was never told by anyone to email a specific department after my account hold was cleared to verify. This school does not support first year students whatsoever, they expect you to automatically know every little in and out of college as if you have been attending all of your life. They allowed me to re-take... Read More

Not academically rigorous or intellectually stimulating in the slightest. The professors are nice, but the information is a joke. Everything is shallow. I suppose some 7th graders might struggle with the material and some of the project assignments, but by 9th grade, most would be capable of getting a B. The monetary value is really good compared to other schools. But what you get out of it is significantly lower value. If you just need a diploma and don't care about potentially regressing your intellect,... Read More

Terrible school. Definitely do not waste the time or money. They claim to 'help' their students. They don't. The professors are unprepared for class, take forever to respond to your emails, and the classes are chaotic at best. Financial Aid office is rude. Online classes were a joke. They were at early hours in the day which conflict for those of us who work. Just, overall, a terrible school and horrible experience.

- [ ] If you have any health problems, “physical” or “mental,” do NOT attend this school. UNCG will not be able to help you. One student felt ill and went to the Student Health Center. He was told to sleep it off. He died in his dorm of breathing complications from bronchitis. My friend reported hearing voices. The Health Center did not provide any assistance. My same friend struggled with addiction and begged for help. The Center did not help him at all. (My friend is now free from addiction but... Read More

UNCG offered their art students a variety of courses to choose from and although at the time I was not interested in taking that variety, I am glad I was required to. In the end I completed drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, and ceramics classes, as well as art history courses. Through this multi-pronged approach, I was well-prepared for my MFA in Photography and confident in my career to respectfully speak my mind and foster collaboration and innovation.

UNCG is such an amazing school! With so many opportunities with staff and administrators that are truly invested in the students. UNCG is also well connected in the Guilford County community which allows students to have access to jobs and other networks. UNCG also has faculty that do amazing work abroad and with collaboration with other schools. No matter what your major is, there are opportunities in your department to do so much more outside of the classroom. As someone who graduated from the... Read More

I completed a majority of my degree online at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I felt that the coursework was challenging and the professors had very high expectations of students. I thought that the online classes were set up very well and easy to follow. I would recommend their online program to anyone. However, when it comes to dealing with any office on campus, good luck!

The campus of UNCG is very diverse. The university is beautiful and located relatively close to popular spots around town. All of the staff Ive encountered during my time there have been nothing less than knowledgeable and super helpful. The gym is beautiful lol and campus living is really good as well.

I LOVE UNCG! Attentive professors, small graduate class sizes, opportunities for assistantships and internships, and so much hands-on experience. I couldn't have chosen a better school.
