UNC Greensboro looks to cut 19 academic offerings - Natalie Schwartz, Higher Ed Dive

The University of North Carolina at Greensboro unveiled recommendations Tuesday to slash 19 bachelor’s degrees, graduate programs and other academic offerings in the wake of recent enrollment declines. More than 140 students are enrolled in the undergraduate majors slated for elimination, while around 70 students are enrolled in the affected graduate programs. Affected students in good standing will have the ability to complete their programs at UNCG. The university’s leadership plans to determine which programs to discontinue over the next two weeks and share the final results with the campus on Feb. 1. Any programs slated for discontinuation will no longer accept new students starting this fall, according to a university notice.
