A Meredith College license plate.

Wherever You Go, Drive Strong. Your Drive Makes a Difference.

A Meredith license plate catches the eye of other drivers, shows your Meredith pride, and celebrates a place you love!

North Carolina drivers can easily order online at ncdot.gov/dmv. Follow the instructions and log in to your DMV account to locate the Meredith plate. $15 from every plate comes back to Meredith and supports Meredith’s Greatest Needs – helping to fund student scholarships and academic programs.

No need to wait for your registration to come due. The DMV will mail your new Meredith plate, registration stickers, and registration card once your order is processed. Your annual renewal date will remain the same.

It’s $25 for a standard collegiate plate. You can personalize your plate for an additional $30.

Alumnae Referral Program

Alumnae know the value of a Meredith education, are our best ambassadors, and play an essential role in keeping the College strong and vibrant.

Here’s how Meredith alumnae can share this institution with future students.

    • We have streamlined the referral voucher. The digital form is much shorter and easier for you to complete.
    • Once completed, the student you refer will be added to our database, which will also trigger an admissions counselor to reach out to them. The referral will waive the student’s application fee.
    • If the student applies and is accepted to Meredith, we will name their Academic Merit Award in your honor as a thank you for sharing the gift of Meredith with them and in recognition of the relationship you have with your student.

Should you know of any high school-age women you think would benefit from a STRONG Meredith education, please share the following admissions events below. In addition, students and families can schedule a personalized, one-on-one information session at meredith.edu/admissions/visit. In-person and virtual options are available.

Share Meredith College with Students You Know

As a proud Meredith alumna, you’ve experienced the value of a strong education. Now, you can help the next generation discover it too. Invite the college-bound women in your life to attend our upcoming visitation days – where they’ll connect with the Meredith community, ask questions, and envision their future. Families can also schedule personalized one-on-one sessions, either in person or virtually, to explore all that Meredith has to offer. Do you know someone ready to learn more about Meredith’s programs?
