As an office that employs quite a few proud Seahawk Alumni and with Gary Shipman as a new member of the Board of Trustees at the College, we would like to recognize UNCW for its latest accomplishment.  The University of North Carolina at Wilmington has been awarded 17th on Forbes Magazine’s 2010 list of “America’s Best College Buys.”  Landing in the top 20 for the most affordable yet high quality education program out of all colleges in the United States is a huge accomplishment for UNCW. 

UNCW is proud to be among the colleges in the nation that have battled through the rough economy to keep costs from skyrocketing for students while, at the same time, staying true to excellence in their academic program.  This can be seen as a huge tribute to the UNCW faculty and staff, ranking above many colleges in their athletic conference and bordering states such as James Madison University, Georgia Tech, University of Georgia, William and Mary, George Mason, College of Charleston and Virginia Tech to name a few. 

Go Seahawks!

    If you take away WestPoint and all 7 other academy and free colleges UNCW would be 9th in America.
