The experience at UNCP is phenomenal! There are numerous resources on campus and off campus for in-state and out of state students, to be successful. They help you in ALL categories that college students need help in such as, housing, job/money opportunities, tutoring, centers to help with assignments, food banks, plenty of fun activities, & shuttle buses for traveling off campus to local stores. Only thing I would like to see improved, to some point, is just more parking areas. Overall, this university is a well-rounded, filled with diversity & outstanding professors that actually help you.

Very Diverse! Great little community surrounding school. Engaging and interested faculty who love to become personal and one-to-one with students as much as possible. School provides a "homey" feel and has something for everyone. Many clubs and activities, including yoga and dance classes after school that can help students feel welcome and included.
My experience was a life changing one because I learned how to adjust to a college setting. I loved the professors and the class room setting because it felt just like high school and they knew your name. I disliked the quality of the food! It needs to be improved. I also don’t like how there is nothing to do here, but that’s what I signed up for.
