Helpful Hints

- Classroom locations (building and room number) will be emailed upon registration, and also the week that Super Saturday begins.  It will be sent to the email address that you provide during registration.

- The first day of Super Saturday is always busy, so please plan to arrive early to find your classroom and pay the materials fee to the instructor. If you know your child’s class location from the email confirmation we send, you may take your child directly to their class.

- We ask that you not attend class with your children unless you are volunteering. Some teachers invite parents to their last class for a recital or presentation and will notify you via email or a flyer sent home with the student.

-  If your child is enrolled in two classes and you're not comfortable with him/her changing classes without help, please stay on campus and escort your child. Please use your own judgment and comfort level. Although UNC Asheville staff do not escort children between classes, the Super Saturday Information Desk in Carmichael Hall is staffed every Saturday for informational assistance. There will also be Information Desks in New, Zageir, Owen, and Robinson Halls, and directional signs will be posted to aid in locating buildings.

Parking and Campus Map

A parking permit is not required at UNC Asheville on Saturdays, and you may park anywhere on campus.  There are usually several parking spaces available on weekends, so you should be able to find a spot near your child's first class.  Click here for driving directions to campus.  Click here for a map of the campus.
