North Carolina Colleges Waiving Application Fees During NC Countdown to College
If you or someone you know is looking to college, North Carolina high school seniors applying to college might want to target NC Countdown to College. This will be held from October 18th to 22nd, 2021. During that time period, many North Carolina colleges and universities and every North Carolina community college will waive application fees for North Carolina residents. This is a great opportunity for the community.
The application fee for most colleges is $25 or $50, so if you’re applying to more than one school the savings will really add up. To take advantage of the free applications you need to apply through CFNC.org and you need to be a North Carolina resident.
