"I truly enjoyed this class and really liked the student-professor interaction. I get nervous when I take online classes because you just never know. I appreciated your fast responses to all the questions that I asked. It was a pleasure to be in your statistics class this semester."

"UNCC is a very diverse and forward thinking environment. The professors are very well qualified and take a personal interest in the students. The technology is state of the art and the facilities are very impressive. As an older student starting a second career, it is very satisfying to see how diverse the campus is age, gender, and ethnicity."

"This school shaped my career for the better. At the university I was challenged to be my best, to think differently and to exercise integrity and judgement of self and of others. I learned to be a steward of good works in my community and within the nation."

"The College of Education at UNC Charlotte prepared me to be the teacher I am today. I would not trade my undergraduate experience for anything. I was challenged by every course to think critically about who I am as an educator. The program made me who I am today in the classroom. I would recommend this program to anyone looking to go into teaching, especially in middle grades."

"This was a good online distance program. The professors were helpful and information learned was connected to what I am teaching at work. I learned a lot and was not overwhelmed. Presenting at the NC Reading conference in Raleigh was great practice for leading teachers. The online systems for classes worked most of the time and were easy to navigate."

"The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is a wonderful school for any and all levels of schooling! I completed my undergraduate career at UNCC and I am completing my Masters program in May of 2016. I loved UNCC so much during my undergraduate career that I couldn't think of anywhere else that I would rather be for my graduate career. This phenomenal school has taught me a lot about English, teaching, and much more about myself. I would recommend my school to anyone looking for a school that motivates its students to be great leaders and future discoverers. I love the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and I look forward to seeing how much my school grows and creates new leaders."

"I attended UNCC in the distant education Special Education Masters program. The experience was wonderful. I learned a great deal and the support of every instructor was outstanding. The work load was very manageable for me as I was working full time while I work on my masters. The Special Education Department at UNCC is AWSOME! I am prepared to be an outstanding teacher."

"The University is fantastic for collaboration and learning. It is an atmosphere that is very inviting to new students whether young or old. Many opportunities to work on and off campus as well as gain invaluable tools for your degree program. The School of Education is preparing teachers for the new classroom where there is intense collaboration with colleagues, clinical experiences in real classrooms so you can get a feel for the day in and day out life of a teacher, opportunities to do a semester long internship at a school that provides you access to the CMS School System and build relationships and contacts before you even applying for opportunities. It is a book education with an actual apprentice education all in one. You know what you are getting before you start working as a teacher."

"I loved my time at UNCC so much that I went back for another degree. The campus is great and is growing at a quick pace. It still has a small university feel because there is no major road running through the middle. The kinesiology program is very demanding and competitive, so make sure you are ready to work hard. Building relationships with the professors is the key to having a smooth ride."

  • Degree: Healthcare Administration
"As an aspiring healthcare administrator, I believe UNC-C's MHA program is a great bang for the buck. The program itself is considered average, it recently ranked 8 spots according to US News and Report which clearly indicates that the program is in it's way to further improvement. Probably the major con is the gap between the local hospital systems and the program. I believe this may be due to UNC-C having not offering more clinical degrees and medical schooling. Other wise, UNC-C's MHA program is a great investment. Students do need to reach out for their own opportunities though to thrive, not just survive the MHA program."

"I am thankful for my UNCC experience. Rich in diversity, UNCC taught me the value to making meaningful relationships and reaffirmed the notion that all are capable of success. I learned the importance of effective communication and collaboration. Professors provided high-quality work, but were approachable and readily available during office hours to assist students. My experience prepared me to successfully transition and thrive in my career field."

"I enjoyed attending UNC Charlotte. The quality of instruction was very good. The cost of tuition was also very good compared to other schools. The education I got was very good. When I attended UNC Charlotte several years ago, there was not much of an atmosphere of student life on campus. People mostly went home on the weekends and the school turned into a ghost town. From what I gather, that has gotten a lot better now. People are much more willing to stay on weekends and watch football games or soccer. The school has added a new student union that seems to be very popular. The thing that I enjoyed most about my degree was the study abroad program that I participated in. I was able to go to Freiburg for a month and that was an absolutely wonderful experience. The biggest issue that I had and still have with my degree (German) is that I took a lot of culture and literature classes but very few language ones. I did not study German to become a well-rounded person on German culture, I studied it to learn the language. It is super embarrassing now to meet people who know that my major is German and be unable to speak the language very well. My German is truly horrible. I wish that there were more classes offered in the actual language. I did not like how many of my classes were taught in English and did not help me learn the language. I would love to be able to take more German classes, even now as a Graduate student, that would help me get a better grasp of the language."

"UNC Charlotte department of Earth and Geology is an amazing collection of great professors. They all love what they do, and they know more than I could hope to ever learn about all the things I am passionate about. Charlotte was close enough to home that I never felt worried or scared about my choices that I made as a first time on my own college student. Charlotte has grown so much since I attended and it continues to grow based on student needs, wants, and interests. They listen to our problems and they correct them."

"My experience at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte was one of the greatest of my life! I truly learned a lot about my field of English and about life. Every professor that I had took an interest in me as a student and taught me everything that they knew. I never felt as if I was being cheated of my education at UNCC. No matter which subject I was taking at UNCC for my credit hours, every teacher reached out to me and made it known that they were there for my advancement. The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is one of the greatest institutions in the South!"

"I was very pleased with the academic aspect of the university including the majors/minors and courses offered, class sizes, and faculty. I did wish that the university didn't have the reputation of being a "commuter school" meaning that most people lived locally and were not around or involved on campus other than attending classes. During my time there, I felt that the university could have done more to engage students and encourage them to stay around on the weekends instead of leaving town to go to other colleges to visit and party or attend sports events. However, I do feel that there is strong school spirit and a sense of pride in the students and faculty."
