Athletic, Activity, and Facilities Fees
Payment of these fees gives students access to athletic events, campus organizations, Elliott University Center (student union), and many other student programs.
Auditing Fees
Current UNCG Students. A registered full-time UNCG student may audit one course per semester without charge. A registered part-time UNCG student may audit no more than two courses per semester and is charged a fee of $15.00 per course.
Visiting Auditors. Visiting auditors are classified as non-UNCG students who wish to take a course(s) without receiving a record of enrollment. Such individuals must apply to register through the Division of Continual Learning. A Visiting auditor will not receive a record of enrollment and is charged a $35.00 fee per course.
Registered auditors (persons not officially enrolled at UNCG) who do require a record of enrollment as an auditor should follow regular admission, registration, and payment procedures. A fee equal to in-state or out-of-state tuition rates is charged for each course audited.
Fees are payable in full at the time of enrollment. See Admissions for details about auditing courses.
Books and Course Supplies
Costs generally run $200-$400 per semester for textbooks and related supplies for full-time students. These are to be paid for as purchased, either from the University Book Store or elsewhere. A few courses may require significantly higher expenditures for supplies and are so noted in the semester Schedule of Courses.
Furnishings (Residence Hall)
All residence hall rooms are furnished with beds, dressers, and desks. All have community bathrooms by floor or wing. All have local telephone and automated voicemail service. Students furnish their own pillows, pillow cases, sheets, blankets, bedspreads, towels, and room accessories such as telephones, study lamps, draperies, rugs, recycling bins and wastebaskets.
Graduation Application Fee
The graduation fee, currently $40 for the baccalaureate degree, covers the cost of Commencement regalia and diploma, and is charged to all degree candidates. It is payable in the Cashiers and Student Accounts Office 30 days prior to graduation. The fee is non-refundable.
Identification Cards (FirstCards)
A permanent UNCG FirstCard will be issued to each student upon completion of registration for their first semester at UNCG. A $15.00 replacement fee is charged for lost or damaged IDs.
Laundry & Dry Cleaning
The University does not provide any laundry or dry cleaning service. Coin-operated washing machines and dryers are located in each residence hall. Students may apply money to their Spartan Express card for laundry and vending expenses.
Telephone Service
Local telephone service is available in all residence hall rooms. Long distance service is also provided at the lowest rate. Personal identification numbers (PIN) are provided to ensure accurate billing.
Transcript Fee
A fee (currently $5 per copy at the time this Bulletin was printed) is charged for release of all official academic transcripts.
Uniforms, Special Equipment, and Liability Insurance
Students are expected to use outfits appropriate to the physical education activities taken. Gym clothing, leotards, and other appropriate outfits are available from the University Book Store.
Nursing majors are required to purchase uniforms and liability insurance. See School of Nursing information for complete details.
Some majors in Exercise and Sport Science are also required to purchase liability insurance. See Department of Exercise and Sport Science for details.
Many laboratory courses require safety goggles and special aprons. Smocks or coveralls are often required in art classes. A number of financial aid jobs require special uniforms. Unless the student has advance information as to exactly what is required, it is preferable to purchase these items after arrival.

Registration and parking permits are required for all student-operated motor vehicles which park on the UNCG campus. See The University Community for details on parking regulations.
