Our Mission

The Levine Scholars Program at UNC Charlotte recruits and empowers high-achieving, service-driven leaders, equipping them to forge legacies of local impact and global engagement.

The Award

The award provides Levine Scholars with full tuition, housing, meals and mandatory fees for all four years. Funding is also provided for four distinctive summer experiences that will develop leadership skills, social awareness and a global perspective. All scholars also have access to a grant to implement a service or outreach project in partnership with a local nonprofit. The current total value of this four-year package is estimated at over $129,000 for in-state students and over $192,000 for out-of-state students.
