Hey, what's up guys.

You're watching YOUniversityTV.

I'm Sheana, and today we're at
the University of North Carolina

at Pembroke.

UNCP is home of the Braves.

I'm Nicole Erin.

Let's take a tour.

University of North Carolina
Pembroke is located

in the sandy hills
of North Carolina.

It's known for its beautiful
scenic landscaping,

golf courses,
southern hospitality,

and temperate climates.

In the fall and in the spring,
you'll see people out here

laying out, sunning outside.

They show movies outside,
usually right back over here.

Pretty recent movies
they have.

And they'll come and cater food.

UNCP is spread among 140 acres
of beautiful landscaping

and buildings, easily accessible
from one end of the campus

to the other.

North Carolina has
great weather, I think.

I've been here all my life.

I love it.

Most of the time, seasons
are really defined here,

spring, summer, fall, winter.

North Carolina Pembroke
enrolls about 6,000 students,

with a gender makeup of
36% men to 63% women.

The student to faculty ratio
is 17:1,

with an average class
size of 30.

And we have a really diverse
campus, one of the most

diverse campuses around,
because we have

African-Americans and white
Americans, as well as lots

of Native Americans,
Asian-Americans.

We have an increasing
international presence.

UNCP all started with the Lumbee
tribe, who are the largest tribe

east of the Mississippi
and the ninth largest

in the nation.

The Lumbee take their name
from the Lumbee River

that runs through
Robeson County.

The ancestors of the Lumbee
opened the school,

first known as Croatan
Normal Indian School,

in hope of benefitting
tribal members.

The school went on
to be a great success,

and is now known as
the University of North Carolina

at Pembroke.

Serving students from all
backgrounds, UNCP requires

students to submit a combination
of SAT or ACT, GPA,

and your high school class rank.

We have rolling admissions,
so students can really apply

any time as soon as they have
senior classes if they're

a freshman, or whenever they're
thinking about transferring in,

they need to complete
an application, pay a $40

application fee, submit
a high school transcript

with SAT or ACT scores.

Once we get it, we review it.

And if they're accepted,
we actually give them a call.

Students from in-state can
expect to pay around $4,000

a year in tuition and fees,
while those coming from

out of state will pay
about $11,000.

And all students living on
campus will pay an additional

$5,000 for room and board.

In short, residents will pay
a total of about $9,000,

and out of staters,
around $16,000.

UNC-Pembroke offers
44 undergraduate majors

and 17 graduate programs.

The most popular undergrad
majors include business,

education, social work,
and biology.

UNCP has prepared me a lot,
I think, for where I'm going

to be heading in my particular
career field.

They put an emphasis
on hands-on projects

and experiences
here on campus,

in classes and with
extra-curricular activities.

They really do a lot.

They pay a lot of attention
to advising us

for our future careers.

Over 73% of UNCP faculty have
their PhD or terminal degree.

And over 63%
are fulltime faculty.

The faculty at UNC-Pembroke
is extremely caring.

I think that we really
understand the student

population that we have here.

And we work really hard
to engage our students

and to assist students
that need extra help.

UNC-Pembroke is a member
of the Peach Belt athletic

conference at the NCAA
Division II level,

with basketball, cross country,
soccer, track, baseball,

football, golf, wrestling ,
tennis, and volleyball available

for students.

UNCP has several options
for when it comes to where

you put your head down at night.

Male and female freshmen
each have two dorms.

Or you can decide to live right
here in Pinehall, which is coed.

My experience living on campus,
residence life in dorms,

it was fun, they have
activities all the time.

They have competitions
between the houses,

who had the most school spirit.

It was a good experience,
which I definitely recommend

to students when I talk to them
when they come look

at the school.

Definitely think that's where
I met most of my friends,

living on the same hall
with all of them.

There are more than 100
clubs and organizations

at UNC-Pembroke.

Sororities, fraternities
and other organizations

sponsor social and cultural
events for all students to get

involved with, as well.

I'm really active being
a mass communications major

in the WNCP TV here on campus,
our television studio.

Help out a lot with interviews
with guest speakers we have.

We have several student produced
shows here on campus

that I'm involved in and have
helped develop and create

some of them, as well.

And I also had some experience
calling play by play

for some of the athletic events
here on campus, as well.

So if you're looking for
a university that distinguishes

itself from peer institutions
by offering an affordable,

highly personalized educational
experience and a great diversity

of students, the University of
North Carolina at Pembroke

is just what you need.

We hope you had
as much fun as we did today

on our tour of campus.

Thanks for joining us at
the University of North Carolina

at Pembroke.

Bye.
