Overview
“When society needed to expand educational opportunities in the region, Queens rose to the occasion in 1857 and was one of the very first universities to educate women.
When soldiers returned home after WWII and wanted to take classes, we opened our doors.
As banking and healthcare grew in Charlotte – our McColl School of Business and Presbyterian School of Nursing answered the call.
In response to the growing digital divide, we established the Center for Digital Equity, a national leader in increasing access to technology and broadband internet.
When we need to reinvent ourselves after a world-changing pandemic…
We are inspired by our motto, "not to be served but to serve."
When others back away from new challenges,
Royals rise to every occasion.”

Read What Students Are SayingThe teachers and curriculum here is outstanding. You will learn important things to help you further your career.
Brittany from Kings Mountain, NC
I just finished my first semester at Queens University of Charlotte and I absolutely love it! The classes are small - there are no classes with more than thirty students. The teachers are skilled and knowledgeable in what they teach. Teachers and students work together and between the professors and the Learning Center for Academic Success, they are determined to help the student learn.
Megan from Winston Salem, NC
The professors are here to help you. They are very flexible to having meetings if you need additional help and there are even other areas on campus that are here to help you learn as much as possible, such as the center for academic success.
Chanelle from Lanham, MD
The teaching staff seems great, and they have an amazing selection of undergrad programs.
What attracted me to the school in the first place was their international program. Around 90% of students at queens either do a summer study tour, or study abroad for a semester which is an AMAZING oppurtunity!

Queens is a small school with a huge impact. It may seem surreal when you first step foot on the campus, but believe it or not, everyone here is as nice as they seem. Everyone here is exceptionally understanding and the classes are definitely rigorous.
Ash from NC
Queens University of Charlotte is a school where one can flourish. With high academic rigor, inclusive activities, and a strong sense of community, Queens has many things students go in wanting. The school is extremely dedicated in cultivating the best experience for all its attendees.
Caroline from NC
A great place to start as a freshman. Smaller classroom settings and the school caters to the needs of each individual student.
Jalen from Fort Mill, SC
The professors really help you one on one.
