As students prepare for online final exams, UNC Greensboro is offering a variety of virtual tech support and academic resources.
Final exams will take place after Thanksgiving Break, from Nov. 30 through Dec. 5. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, all exams have been moved online.
From extended 6-TECH hours to tutoring and speaking consultation, UNCG is committed to helping students navigate what will be an exam week like never before.
