Wishing you a peaceful and meaningful Memorial Day.

One More week to take advantage of current pricing!

As this year’s application season comes to a close and the school year winds down, it is the perfect time for families to begin planning ahead for the next stage of the college admissions journey.

Whether you are considering comprehensive college counseling, personal statement support, college list development, application strategy, or Summer Application Bootcamp, now is the best time to get started.

College admissions continues to become more competitive and complex each year. Strong planning, early preparation, and personalized guidance make a significant difference.

Join Jodi L.G. Glou, President of Custom College Consulting, on her recent visit to the University of North Carolina Asheville, a distinctive public liberal arts university nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains that offers the resources of the UNC system with the close-knit feel of a small college campus.

With fewer than 3,000 undergraduate students, UNC Asheville provides an intentionally personalized academic experience where students are truly known by name. The average class size is just 16 students; there are no teaching assistants; all classes are taught directly by professors, creating a highly engaging and discussion-driven learning environment with no large lecture halls.

As the only designated public liberal arts and sciences university in the University of North Carolina System, UNC Asheville offers 65 academic programs built around critical thinking, interdisciplinary learning, and strong faculty mentorship. Popular majors include engineering, environmental science, business, psychology, mass communication, and art.

Every student completes a liberal arts core curriculum that includes English, lab science, and thoughtfully designed electives that encourage intellectual exploration.

Student life at UNC Asheville is vibrant without feeling overwhelming. Traditions like Rocky-palooza at the start of the year and the Turning of the Maples festival in the fall help create strong campus spirit.

With some Greek life, 16 Division I sports, and a growing E-sports program, students have plenty of ways to get involved while maintaining the intimate feel of campus life.

Housing is another standout feature, with suite-style and Jack-and-Jill residence halls, no communal bathrooms, guaranteed housing for all four years, and even pet-friendly residence hall options.

The campus is also home to Peak Academy, an elementary school designed to support underserved students, reflecting UNC Asheville’s strong commitment to service, equity, and community engagement.

With its strong academics, personal attention, beautiful mountain setting, and commitment to access and student success, UNC Asheville offers a truly unique college experience for students seeking both challenge and community.
