UNCC is a great school! The campus is beautiful and and the academic and residential buildings are amazing. UNCC has the feel of a big university without it becoming overwhelming. Now with the light rail stop on campus we are connected directly to uptown Charlotte giving us great internship and job opportunities. UNCC has every restaurant, sport, club or activity that you could think of, giving students ways to get involved. We have excellent professors and staff that truly want to see every student succeed.
I am currently a sophomore at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and I honestly love it! The atmosphere is so inclusive no matter what background you have. We have students from all over the world here because they hear how advanced our campus is. Everything is so new and kept up it really makes me proud to say I go here. Most of the professors I have had have their Ph D and are very knowledgeable in their subjects. There are many student apartments in the area so it gives you the option of living on campus or off unlike other campuses where you are required to live on campus until junior or senior year.
We have the lynx light rail so you can literally go anywhere in Charlotte, and uptown is only about 15/20 mins away if you want to do something fun!

I will be transferring to UNCC during fall 2019. I took a tour there and also live around 15 minutes from campus. I sometimes drive through the campus, which is really nice and HUGE! When I took a tour, we couldn't even tour the entire campus because it was so large. But everyone there, student and staff is very friendly and welcoming. I noticed the campus was also very diverse and students take their work very seriously although some do still party. This is an awesome school and I can't wait to attend!
