Not an expert but am a UNCC alum living in the Charlotte area. My husband and son are NCSU grads (not architecture). I would guess that the UNCC degree would be very good if planning to locate in/around Charlotte and the western part of NC. Otherwise, NCSU is a much bigger “name” that’s known farther afield. Even though the UNCC program might be a better in many aspects, the name recognition doesn’t go very far. NCSU is known nationwide while UNCC is still considered a “branch” university…just my opinion.
