Admission Guide
North Greenville University uses a rolling admissions process, so you can apply throughout the year rather than meeting a single deadline. Submit your application through the NGU website along with your high school transcripts and SAT or ACT scores. The school also requires a pastoral recommendation letter, reflecting its Christian mission and community focus.
Your nursing program application requires additional steps beyond general admission. You must complete prerequisite courses in biology, chemistry, and anatomy before entering the nursing sequence. The program limits enrollment, so apply early even though the university overall admits most students who apply.
NGU requires all unmarried students under 23 to live on campus unless they live with parents within 50 miles. Housing applications open in February for the following fall semester. You'll choose between traditional residence halls and apartment-style housing, with newer facilities available on the upper campus area.
The campus sits in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains near Greenville, giving you access to outdoor recreation and internship opportunities in the Greenville metropolitan area. Many students participate in the school's extensive music and theater programs, which perform regularly both on campus and in the surrounding community.
Financial aid processing begins after you submit your FAFSA. The school offers merit scholarships based on your academic record, and you can stack multiple awards. Work-study positions are available across campus departments, including opportunities in the school's broadcast facilities and athletic programs.
