The flat terrain and temperate climate of the North Carolina Coastal Plain is particularly well suited to those with mobility limitations and to wheel chair users.
Physical facilities on the UNCW campus are fundamentally accessible. Classroom buildings and all student services buildings are accessible throughout. There exists an on-going effort to remove barriers and increase safety on campus. Students are encouraged to report any difficulty with accessibility or safety to Disability Services.
On-campus housing includes modified accommodation for students with disabilities. Residence halls have elevators and are accessible throughout. Student apartments and suites are first floor accessible to students with mobility impairments. Special housing needs should be discussed with the Housing Office well in advance of enrollment.
