Run With the Wolfpack
Getting started on your application to NC State is easy, but how you apply depends on who you are — and where you’re coming from.
The undergraduate application opens on August 1. Once submitting your application, you’ll receive login credentials to wolfPAW, our applicant portal. That’s where you’ll track your application status, manage documents and get your final admissions decision.
NC State Virtual Summer Series
Current high school students and families are invited to join us this summer for a series of virtual sessions designed to help you navigate the application process with confidence. Take the next step toward your future at NC State.
Application Tip:
When completing your application, please provide a personal email address. Do not submit your school-issued address or a parent’s address.
