The University Learning Center is committed to being a vital part of UNCW students'
education. Our academic support services
are based on the principle that quality learning takes place when peers work collaboratively to develop knowledge and build
skills. The University Learning Center provides students a learning environment and
experience that differs from the classroom;
we focus on high-quality individual, smallgroup and large-group student-centered and
student-lead learning. The ULC includes the
