Meet SPARK in the Pit!

Student-created and student-led, SPARK is an immersive opportunity for leadership development, dialogue, and self-reflection for first-year students at UNC interested in collective impact and positive change. Learn more about SPARK and meet our Counselor team in the Pit!

The SPARK program consists of a retreat at the start of the Fall semester for undergraduate students in their first year at UNC. All interested students must submit an application to be considered to attend the SPARK retreat, as there are a limited number of spots available.

Retreat Dates: Friday September 11^th-Sunday September 13^th , 2026
