My son had a tough decision....State, Wilmington, Elon. He spent several days at State checking out the school and the department he was interested in, spent a full day at UNCW and met with the department head, and spent a full day at Elon ( who he said has the BEST food lol) . He chose State because he was most impressed with the department, and felt that although State was huge, his department was small and he would not feel like a "number". He also met with his advisors there and liked them.
Personally, I loved Elon, it's beautiful and I liked the size and green campus. I did not like what seemed to be little diversity. (I thought UNCW was pretty, but too spread out and no football, so I wondered about school spirit. ) I have heard great things about all of these schools.
To sum it up, there is no advice I can give you but to take the time and spend a day if you can at both places. You can't go wrong with either, which is what makes it even harder! ANd like my son, you will probably love which ever you choose once you get there!!
Good luck!
