When I started thinking about studying abroad, one of the first things that I wanted to know was how much it actually cost to do so. At UNC Asheville, students usually pay tuition for their study abroad experience directly to UNC Asheville (the same cost as attending university here). However, if you do a very short-term program or if you follow the same path that I did (attending a university with which...

Study Abroad: Some Background
Before I really get the ball rolling on these study abroad posts, I guess I should tell you a little bit about myself. In my master plan for my university life, I had hoped to study abroad for a semester in the fall of my junior year. However, some unforeseen factors caused me to transfer to UNC Asheville during my sophomore year. ...

As I was thinking about what I wanted to share with you, I reflected on my days as a high school student hoping to study abroad in college. At...
NC Center for Health and Wellness, Part II
The architecture of the NC Center for Health and Wellness is so distinct that it's definitely going to allow the building to become one of the "landmarks" (like Governor's Hall and Ramsey Library) of the UNC Asheville campus. While I think it is very important to show you more of the inside of the center, I wanted first to give you...
Transylvania County's 150th Anniversary
Over Labor Day, one of my roommates, a Brevard, NC native, invited us to her hometown to attend the festivities surrounding the 150th anniversary of Transylvania County, which is located to the south of Buncombe County (home to Asheville). What a day! The amount of preparation that went into this celebration was impressive. We...

Freshman Fifteen.
This is a topic that usually seems to pop up when you talk about beginning your university life. I had this conversation with friends and family, and I'm sure this is something on some of your minds. Today, I'm here with a little bit of hope: the "Freshman Fifteen" can totally be avoided.

- Imagine yourself in a vibrant community where learning is active, multifaceted and above all, personal. At UNC Asheville, classes are small, so you won’t be a nameless face in a crowded lecture hall. Instead, you’ll be digging into issues that matter, guided by professors who take the time to support and motivate you. Our hands-on approach gives you a new way of thinking through an integrated core curriculum — and opportunities that are normally available only in grad school. Here, you’ll engage with ideas, put them in action and use them to launch your own future. Your UNC Asheville experience, both in the classroom and out, will prepare you for a wide range of possibilities. Our graduates say that thanks to their UNC Asheville education, they were ready when new doors opened that they hadn’t expected. And in today’s marketplace, that’s a definite advantage.
