Are you a community college student interested in transferring and majoring in education?

If you are transferring from a community college to a four-year institution in order to complete a teacher education degree, you are smart to consider enrolling in UNCP.

Becoming a teacher means that you will become a part of UNCP’s School of Education.  And becoming a teacher means that you will not only make a difference, you will be the difference to every student you teach.  With the teacher shortage in North Carolina, there is a huge demand for teachers and many terrific opportunities await you in classrooms across the state.

UNCP’s Office of Admissions is ready and prepared to offer you any help you need as you work through the requirements for admission. The information for transfer students will be invaluable to you.

Please look at UNCP’s Educator Preparation Program website to learn more about us.  Our commitment is to provide the very best preparation programs for teachers, administrators, counselors, and other education professionals in partnership with public schools and other agencies. Please come in and explore the many undergraduate and graduate programs we have to offer. The Educator Preparation Program website gives you valuable information about the admissions into the Educator Preparation Program requirements and other relevant information.
