What Students Love about UNC Charlotte
"Campus is packed full of amazing experiences for all-- there is never a dull moment! I love cheering on my friends at Charlotte athletics events, mentoring future 49ers as a Niner Guide and competing for Niner Nation on the track team. With so many outlets to network with professors and meet like-minded students, Charlotte is the best home away from home." - Lori
"The student organizations!" - Enny
