Student reviews

Professors

Freshman

Queens University of Charlotte is perfect for students who are looking for smaller class sizes and 1-1 with the professors. It is easy to make connections with the administrators and professors, they make it clear they are there to help you succeed. From my personally experience, Queens has proved time and time again they are there for you and provide you with the resources necessary to grow. They place emphasis on their motto, not to be served but to serve (the community), giving the students the opportunity to participate in volunteering and events to build community.

Campus and vibes

Sophomore

Beautiful campus. School is kind of isolated in the Middle of a nice neighborhood so it’s not very walkable off campus to any place. Class sizes are nice and professors and kind

Student

Queens is a gorgeous campus and an amazing school to take advantage of, from student orgs to personal connections with professors, the school has lots of opportunities available like with the JBIP program but the campus life is highly dependent on the person's involvement, if you plan to be active in the community and your education, Queens is an awesome fit for those looking for a personal connection in many aspects of college life.

Student

Some athletic programs also continue to struggle, while the basketball team received $18,000 to attend a tournament , all in the name of promoting the Queen’s brand. Most professors at Queen’s are outstanding and want their students to succeed, but the poor administrative decisions and declining quality in key services like food hold the school back. Tuition keeps rising—fees increased by around $16,000 over the years I was there. I did enjoy my time at Queen’s and don’t regret choosing to go there, but the decisions made by those in higher leadership positions were often frustrating.
