DO NOT, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME AT UNC CHARLOTTE!!! I am being nothing but honest when I say that this is not the school for anybody wanting a degree and wanting to be competitive in the real world. This should be your last resort school, besides the excellent social activities (i.e. parties and binge fests) the academics suck. You couldn't get help on this campus if you were on the ground with a bullet in your back. Re-evaluate the reason why you want to go to college, I know when I came here I was excited about all the freedom and drinking, and yes it was fun for the first year, because I would party and not go to class, then I saw my grades which were average (the professors let you bullshit your way through, any excuse will work and passing everyone in the class looks better so that when they achieve tenure, because most of them are associate professors, they will still have a job) NO JOKE! But when I decided to get serious about school and my future is when I ran into problems, I stop letting them administration do whatever and charge me whatever. FINANCIAL AID HERE IS BULLSHIT!!! They will deny you any assistance as long as you let it happen, if you're stuck here speak up for yourself!!! Or you will be graduating with a lousy degree from a ill respected college with a mountain of debt (lameness shouldn't cost you anything). I have a job on campus and the faculty and other staff that I work with are on some serious bullshit (seriously) so watch your back or you might find yourself in a compromising situation or position (LOL). Also a large population of the faculty are foreign and have impossible to understand hand writing and speech, but take them for stupid because these are some of the most difficult professors. They feel they have something to prove by sticking it to you personally, (advice: don't get an African professor angry, you will never feel safe in your skin again)!!! You are extremely limited to the organizations that you will be accepted into, alot of them recruit openly but once you visit a meeting you will understand that just because you are on the email list doesn't mean they will accept you, DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE BOGUS ASS DUES!!! I pay around $200 every month for dues for two clubs and pay additional dues for greek life (I'm not disclosing which one so you can track me down!!) My greek organization does absolutely NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING but meet and gossip and hug and eat and gossip oh and PARTY!!! I am becoming enraged as I think about how wack UNCC is, it has nothing to offer compared to other state run colleges and universities. GO SOMEWHERE ELSE and DO YOUR RESEARCH, JUST BECAUSE YOU GOT ACCEPTED HERE DOESN'T MEAN YOU BELONG HERE, take it from me I graduated at the top of my class and could have gone anywhere but I settled for what I thought would be a good experience in a up and coming city. NOPE!!!

responseI graduated from UNC Charlotte in 2009. I am starting medical school in less than two months. Admission into medical school is extremely competitive… My UNC Charlotte transcript did the job.

If you think I'm an exception, two of my friends who recently graduated from Charlotte as well will be starting a doctoral program at Duke in two months.

If you find that even more unbelievable, two more of my friends are doing research at WakeMed and CMC… both are UNC Charlotte graduates.

I could keep going to disprove this ridiculous claim, but I won't. An education is 90% what you make of it. Don't expect a school's name to do the job for you.

responseThis review is completely wack. College is what you make of it. Your degree is only worthless if you don't apply yourself both inside and outside of the classroom. I know plenty of people who have graduated from UNC Charlotte(not UNCC, that was 30 years ago) and have gotten GOOD jobs out of college. I have plenty of friends who have applied themselves during school and have positions waiting for them at Bank of America. Like I said to begin with, UNC Charlotte is what you make it. There are plenty of opportunities to accomplish whatever you want to and more.
