The five-year Strategic Plan calls on the UNC System to achieve ambitious goals. Progress toward these goals and metrics will be achieved through the hard work and commitment of institutional leaders, faculty, and staff.

Fayetteville State University is fully committed to providing increased access to higher education for residents of rural counties; increasing degree attainment by low-income and rural students; raising five-year graduation rates; and increasing undergraduate degree efficiency.


Historically Minority-Serving Institution

The UNC System Board of Governors created a special Committee on Historically Minority-Serving Institutions in 2018 to study and assess six institutions’ unique challenges and promising opportunities. The goal of the committee is to create strategies that will ensure these institutions’ future growth by promoting investments, opportunities, and awareness throughout the state.
