SCHOOL LOCATIONS

Charlotte is the business center of both North and South Carolina, and from 1990 to 1998 was one of the fastest growing cities with a population of 500,000 or more.

It is a city rich in both business ( Charlotte is the nation's second largest banking center, home of Bank of America, First Union, and other financial institutions) and culture. The area's natural attractions and scenery include three lakes within a 30-minute drive. Canoeing, kayaking, boating, hiking, mountain biking, and whitewater rafting will help you to relax and recharge your creative batteries. For more cosmopolitan entertainment, try Charlotte's Cultural District, a haven for the arts community that includes art galleries, theaters, restaurants, and clubs that reflect Charlotte's lively spirit. Sports fans will no doubt find their way to a Panther's game. Thanks to Charlotte's recent growth and its residents, this is a place you can feel welcome as you pursue your education.
