The Tar Heel Experience

At UNC-Chapel Hill, we think the best education includes finding ways to explore your passions. There are hundreds of opportunities to connect with fellow Tar Heels, get involved in activities, develop your talents and leave your heelprint at Carolina.

Tar Heels join student organizations, explore Franklin Street, relax on Polk Place, cheer on the Tar Heels in the Dean Dome and Carmichael Arena, and give back to our community.

Learn more about the Tar Heel experience and how you can get involved in campus life.
