A real person reads every message. We are a volunteer organization, so we are not instant, but we do answer.
Email us, the fastest way
We aim to reply within 2–3 business days. Please include your full name and, if you have one, your member number (it looks like PCO-2026-001) so we can find your record quickly.
01Other ways to reach us
-

@pcouncc. DMs are open and usually quickest for general questions

UNC Charlotte students: our official channel
-
In person
Come to any PCO event and find an officer. Everyone is welcome.
For anything involving your personal information (a correction, a copy of your record, or a deletion request), please use email rather than social media, so we have a written record and can confirm it is really you.
02Common questions
I asked for a sign-in link and it never arrived
Check your spam or junk folder first; that is where it usually is. The link is only valid for fifteen minutes and works once, so if it has been sitting a while, request a fresh one.
If nothing arrives at all, the most likely reason is that the address you typed is not the one on our roster, or your membership is inactive. For your privacy we show the same message either way, so we cannot tell you from the page itself. Email us and we will check.
My sign-in link says it is invalid or expired
Each link expires after fifteen minutes and stops working the moment it has been used once. Opening it twice, or having a security scanner in your email open it first, will both do this. Just request a new link.
The name on my membership card is wrong
Email us with the correct spelling and we will fix it. Any officer can update a name, role or join date. Once corrected, remove the old pass from your wallet and add it again to pick up the change.
I need to change the email address on my membership
Email us from your current address if you still have access to it, and tell us the new one. If you have lost access to the old address, write from the new one and include your full name and member number so we can verify who you are.
My Apple Wallet or Google Wallet pass will not add
Try these in order:
- Open the page in your phone’s own browser (Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android) rather than inside another app’s built-in browser.
- Make sure your device software and the Wallet app are up to date.
- Confirm you are signed in to the Google account you actually use for Google Wallet.
- Delete any older PCO pass and add it again.
Still stuck? Email us and say which phone and operating system version you have, and what the error said. That detail is what lets us actually fix it.
I lost my phone, or I think someone else has access to my account
Email us immediately and we will end your active sessions, which signs out every device. There is no password to reset, because we never had one. Access comes from your email inbox, so secure that account too.
Take my photo down, or delete my information
Email us and we will remove it. A photograph is always optional and removing it does not affect your membership. You can also ask us for a copy of everything we hold about you, or ask us to delete your record entirely. We respond within thirty days and usually much sooner. See the Privacy Policy for the full list of what you can ask for.
How do I join, or renew?
PCO is open to every student and community member, Palestinian or not, Arab or not. UNC Charlotte students can join through Niner Engage. Community members, alumni and neighbours: message us on Instagram or email us and we will get you on the roster.
I want to volunteer, sponsor a table, or partner on an event
Please do. Email mshawar@charlotte.edu or message @pcouncc with a sentence about what you have in mind.
I found a bug, or a security problem with this website
Thank you, genuinely. Email us with what you found and how to reproduce it. If it is a security issue, please tell us privately first and give us a reasonable chance to fix it before sharing it publicly. We will not pursue anyone who reports something in good faith.
03What we cannot help with
We are a cultural organization, not a university office. We cannot assist with UNC Charlotte enrolment, financial aid, housing, immigration or legal matters. For anything involving your studies or student status, contact the university directly. If you are in immediate danger, call 911; on campus, UNC Charlotte Police can be reached at 704-687-2200.
