Once A Niner, Always A Niner

Becoming a Niner is a journey that doesn’t end at graduation. The mission of the UNC Charlotte Alumni Association is to inspire current and future Charlotte alumni to engage in lifelong relationships with Niner Nation. Together with our alumni, we work to build lasting connections, strengthen our community, advance our institution and drive impact in Charlotte and beyond. As a graduate, you’re automatically a member of the Alumni Association—no dues, just pride and tradition.
