I love UNCC. The professors are understanding and considerate, as well as everyone in the community. I never imagined myself surrounded by such cool people until it happened when I moved here. It's very socially welcoming, there isn't a need to remain in the shy stage. Not only are the people welcoming, but the campus is as well. The buildings are beautiful and modern, and they keep coming! UNCC, they say, stands for Under New Construction Constantly. It grows so rapidly, and lays out nicely to make navigation of the campus easy. The food options are great, the study places are perfect, and the academic buildings are conveniently located near center campus. There is only one thing I'm not fond of about UNC Charlotte, and that's the hills. I'm tired of stairs. Other than how much exercise it takes for me to get to class, the university is perfect to me!
Overall, UNC Charlotte is an outstanding university! I just completed my first year and I am so glad I ended up at this school! The environment on and off campus always feels so welcoming even when I am just walking to class or driving to IKEA! Diversity is very important to UNC Charlotte and it shows just by stepping on campus. The professors are so welcoming and are always open to helping their students! I love everything about UNC Charlotte, everything from their academics to sporting games! They take great pride in the way the campus looks and the dorms are always so clean. I have never had an issue with anything not being clean and I never expect that to change!
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.
