Legacy Alumni Network
What is a UNC Charlotte Legacy?
Any student who has at least one parent, step-parent, grandparent, or sibling who is an alumnus/a of UNC Charlotte (undergraduate or graduate program) is considered to be a Legacy.
What is the Legacy Alumni Network?
Alumni and students are the most important people in the UNC Charlotte community, and this program is designed to honor them as well as encourage their family to become part of the University’s proud tradition. The Legacy Alumni Network recognizes families for making a 49er education part of their family tradition. The program is offered to encourage the 49er spirit in students who are children and/or grandchildren or siblings of UNC Charlotte graduates. Families have passed on the 49er tradition to their children and we want to help celebrate this special relationship.
The Legacy program helps these very important members of the Niner Nation family stay in touch with the University and with other legacies through special programs, events, activities and networking opportunities, and rewards families for their continued generational support of UNC Charlotte. This program is just one more way that we’re strengthening the bond between the University, our alumni, and our students.
