Going to Charlotte Engineering Early College is a privilege. How the school works is, you take 4 classes each semester for freshmen and sophomore year. Earning majority of your high school credits through those first two years. Since the school is more focused on earning college credit, they don’t offer sports you have to do that through your homeschool. They also don’t offer electives. For the early college the elective would be considered the engineering class and the computer science class. Then in junior year you get to take college classes, and only one high school class. You have a lot of freedom out on campus. Kids that go to early college save a lot of money. You get two years worth of free college, because the school also offers a 13th year which is earning free college classes. The 13th year is optional. Depending on the college you go to sometimes the credits transfer and sometimes they don’t. Overall I 10/10 would recommend Charlotte Engineering Early College.
Charlotte Engineering Early College has prepared me for college and my future career. I will be graduating with almost two years of college credit from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. We are always told to start with the end in mind and this school truly lives that saying. The classes are rigorous and mainly STEM-based, preparing students for a second-level education. The dual enrollment is amazing compared to other high schools because we are affiliated with a university instead of a community college.
If I didn't go to CEEC, I would not be as ready to attend college. Going here has given me confidence in myself and I learned that as long as I put the work in, I can do anything possible.

Charlotte Engineering Early College (CEEC) is a high school located on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte (UNCC). CEEC has an engineering focus, and most of my high school education has been focused on project-based learning. Taking the majority of my classes as university courses at UNCC has opened up many opportunities for me. I was even able to become a UNCC Calculus Teaching Assistant, meaning that I tutored university students as a 16-year-old. Unfortunately, our school does not have any sports teams or the opportunities for music and arts classes.
