Parking for Cedar Hall

Now that we have moved into our summer residence we have been receiving a lot of questions about where to park for appointments.

If you look at the map below Cedar Hall is building no. 535 on Mary Alexander Road. The closet commuter lot is Lot 12 at the corner of Cameron Blvd and Mary Alexander Road. You could also park in Lot 5 and walk up by the Susie Harwood Garden.  Disability Accessible parking is located in Lot 16A.  If you do not have a UNC Charlotte parking pass there is metered parking in Lots 13 and 16.  Otherwise the closet visitor parking is in the Union or East Decks.

Tips for Finalizing your Fall Schedule

What if you didn't get your ideal spring schedule during registration week? Here are a few strategies to utilize between now and the Add/Drop deadline for fall on August 28th:

  1. Get on a waitlistThis shows us your intent to register for the course and will help us assess the need. If no spots are available on the waitlist, please continue to check the registration system for openings in sections and waitlists.
  2. Do you think you'll need to repeat something? Get authorized to enroll for a second attempt.
  3. Ready to declareAll grades must be posted from Spring 2017 before applying for an upper-level major. 
  4. Can't get into a course you need? Sign up for some non-business electives just in case.
    • Non-business electives include all courses offered by departments outside the Belk College of Business.
Don't forget, you can always meet with your Academic Career Coach to review your schedule! Make an appointment on Starfish and be sure to come prepared with questions and to talk about your career goals!
