Wilmington, NC (November 10, 2025) – Cape Fear Community College and Campbell University have signed a new articulation agreement. The Campbell Assured Admission Program provides CFCC students with a direct and seamless pathway to continue their education at Campbell University. Through this partnership, CFCC students will have access to early transfer resources, including academic advising, financial aid counseling, and orientation opportunities designed to ensure their success.

To qualify for the Campbell Assured Admission Program, students must:

• Be a currently enrolled student, in good standing, at CFCC in a degree-seeking capacity
• Submit a Campbell University application for admission and required records by Campbell University deadlines
• Earn an overall GPA of at least 2.0 and a grade of “C” or better in all transfer courses
• Successfully complete an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree from CFCC
• Enroll at Campbell University within one academic year of completing an associate degree

“We are proud to partner with Campbell University to create new opportunities for our students,” said Jim Morton, CFCC president. “Our goal is to open doors and remove barriers, and this pathway allows our students to move forward with confidence as they pursue their bachelor’s degree. This partnership is another way we are preparing students for the future and helping them achieve their goals.”

“North Carolina is renowned for its impressive array of community colleges, and whenever students at two-year institutions desire to continue their education at a four-year university, we want them to see Campbell as a destination of first choice,” said Dr. William Downs, Campbell University President. “The agreement we sign with Cape Fear Community College creates new opportunities for our neighbors in the region, and it enhances access to something that we feel is very special – the Campbell experience. This is a win-win for both schools and, more importantly, for degree-seekers who will go on to strengthen our workforce and lead in their communities. We are indeed grateful for this new and meaningful partnership.”
