The University of North Carolina at Pembroke will be offering up to $1,000 in tuition payments to incoming freshmen this school year. 

For freshmen to participate in this offer, applications must be received by August 5 and be enrolled for the fall semester to qualify. 

“One of the major concerns for potential students is cost and how they are going to pay for college,” said Tim Sampson, director of Financial Aid.  “As a university, we want to make college affordable. In addition to being an NC Promise campus, which reduces in-state undergraduate tuition to $500 per semester, we offer these free payments to ensure everyone who wants to attend college has that opportunity.” 

The payments are made possible by the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund, which the university received as part of the CARES Act, stated the press release. 

The tuition payments will be awarded on a first-come first-served basis. For more information, call 910-521-6255.
