There's an upgrade underway, which means now's a great time to stake your claim on one of these two or four-bed apartments!

With a resort-style pool, hot tub, tanning beds and BBQ/picnic areas, it’s easy to forget why you’re really there. If UNCC wasn’t so easy to get to. There’s also a business center and communal study room to remind you.

Or just commit to the distraction of a basketball or volleyball match or clubhouse hangout. You can also catch the free uptown shuttle for a change of scene.
