At ECU, commitment to our passionate and loyal community underscores everything we do. We want you to be a part of that community, even if traditional on-campus learning doesn’t make sense in your life. Our online programs provide the same academic quality, expert instruction, and robust student support systems as our on-campus programs, empowering you on your road to personal and professional success.
Online undergraduate students are required to have a minimum of 24 hours of transferable credits for admission.
Please note:
The Residency Determination Service (RDS) has been established by the North Carolina State Legislature as the centralized service for determining residency for students. If you are a student applying for admission and claiming in-state residency for tuition purposes, you must visit NCresidency.org NCresidency.org to verify your residency.
If you’ve already completed the residency verification process and obtained your Residency Certification Number (RCN), you can enter your RCN when filling out our application. If you do not already have your RCN, you may submit your application and then come back and enter your RCN once you have it.
For more information, visit the Office of the Registrar’s Residency page , or contact RDS at 1-844-319-3640 or rdsinfo@ncresidency.org .
