NC Countdown to College (C2C) is a year-long initiative to help high school seniors learn more about taking three important college enrollment steps: residency, applying for financial aid, and college applications. Many North Carolina colleges and universities participate in C2C by waiving application fees during College Application Week (CAW) - a great way to save on college costs! This year, CAW begins on October 21 at 7:30 a.m. and ends on October 27 at 11:59 p.m.
Complete your NC residency determination to be considered for in-state tuition (a significant savings in the cost of going to college), state grants/scholarships, and certain financial aid!
