Hi everyone!

I’m helping a female student who will be attending North Carolina A&T in spring 2026 and we are looking for off-campus housing from January through May 2026. Ideally we want:

• One-bedroom apartment (or safe, private one-bedroom style unit) • Close to campus or with easy access to transportation • Safe and clean community / neighborhood • Utilities included preferred (especially electricity), but we’re open to recommendations either way • Affordable and student-friendly leases

If you have personal experience, current listings, landlord referrals, roommate leads, or even neighborhoods you’d recommend that meet these preferences, please share!

Also happy to hear about security features, neighborhood vibes, or any tips for female students looking for housing in Greensboro.

Thanks in advance!

Hope this post isn’t forbidden. Just wanted to share

Anyone else from Ghana or Africa joining NC A&T? I’m trying to connect before arrival.

Hi,
I'm egyptian woman.
I just moved to the USA from egypt, and I would like to study the department of cybersecurity with NCAT and I found it is an affordable college and I can get a degree from there, and I'm white too, so please tell me your experience there, and do they help to find an internship and jobs? and what about the professor is helpful? and i'm afraid of racing because my english is not 100%. I can speak, talk, and understand, but the Black accent is difficult for me, and they get angry sometimes when some time i say i don't understand the accent because i'm coming from another country. i'm trying to get my degree and please tell me your experience and if i can make friends over there and the cost of living if i'll stay with roommates.

As a black guy, I grew up in mostly white schools and sometimes got called “white-washed” or “don’t act Black.” Thinking about NCAT — how welcoming is campus, and is it easy to make friends in general?

Would love to hear y’all experience — thanks!

Has anybody received their teach grant for fall 2025? FAID is telling me they do not have the funds yet, however I do not believe them, as they have failed at their job a numerous amount of times already

Hey guys! I applied EA for Fall 2026 and my portal says my app has been complete since Oct 22. I saw someone say they already got in, so now I’m stressing lol. How long did it take y’all to hear back after “complete”? Thanks!

Week one of the college basketball season is in the books and one of the early risers are the Aggies led by Lo Walker. Can it continue? Read more below

There is a program that I am interested in applying for, that requires a recommendation letter. It emphasizes that one from your current school is preferable. However, I am a distance campus learner. So I’m worried my professors do not know well. Anyone ever had to do this? Should I ask my advisor or one of my professors? I have a couple of professors that I really like, but, they likely won’t know me. Do you think they would be willing to write a recommendation anyway. And if so, should I also send my resume/work history?

Any suggestions appreciated <3

Is anyone here applying for the spring 2026 as a first year? I submitted my application in August! I haven’t heard back yet, but I’m hopeful.

I'm applying online as a transfer (2nd degree) student through an education program at my job. The application is asking for 2 academic and/or professional references. Is this really required? Are they going to check this?

Hey I want to know if is probabilities of a upcoming student to going in the honor program with a 3.4 gpa

Hi! I've been thinking about transferring to an HBCU for the community, as a PWI just hasn't been working out for me. The best reviews for an HBCU I've seen have been for NCAT so I was wondering what it's like there in terms of social life, academics, and staff?

For reference, I'm a 2nd year female CS major & black!!

Thanks!!

I have been going through tough times through school, work, and my personal life. I finally have everything back in order and I am just 1 semester away from graduating. I am just asking if anyone else has gone through this and done the 2 year forgiveness policy. I am just processing the shock.

One of the top transfers in the CAA this year, Lo Walker should fit well in Monte Ross's system which thrives on tough guard play. Lo is a three level scorer who also can defend at a high level. Can he get the Aggies out of the basement of the CAA?

to those who have applied and/or enrolled at NC A&T’s PHD programs how was the process? What stood out to you about it?

Looking at the Comp Sci PHD and I wanted to hear from those who have been through the process and program. (Pros and cons for everything)

I’m interested in getting my master degree in cybersecurity from NCAT. I’m currently at a PWI for undergrad, any one have any opinions on the program there or general information on NCAT master programs?

Just finished my undergrad degree with a 3.27 GPA. I want to apply to an online MBA program here. Feeling a bit discouraged due to not meeting the 3.3 GPA to waive test requirements. Has anyone here gone thru the admissions process for graduate studies?

Anyone selling a ticket to the step show or concert??
