The University of North Carolina, Greensboro, “is an amazing place for creatives to come and further themselves personally and professionally.” Students highlight hands-on opportunities such as “hosting my own musical live shows, performing at the NC Music Educators conference, [and an] internship with a prestigious music non-profit.” Students also say that “the arts, 100 percent,” are a major draw at UNCG. To enhance its fine-arts reputation, the university is building a new center for creative practice, featuring “a flexible performance space, gallery, instructional and studio rooms, [and] a digital lab” that will be “a hive of creativity and academic innovation.” In addition to the arts, the business school is very popular, and one student says, “The amount of different classes and majors you can have are definitely a plus. I chose this school specifically for its genetic counseling program; something that’s pretty unique to the school.” And regardless of one’s major, students can count on their professors to be “friendly, inclusive, welcoming, and diligent about teaching well.” In addition, “there’s always a resource or person who’s ready to help you—whether that’s the Office of Intercultural Engagement, your academic advisor, or even a professor who you connected with and genuinely cares about your growth,” as well as “a plethora of opportunities for those who are first-generation or transfer students.” All in all, students love that UNCG “truly encourages students to find their home, their people, and their community.”
