| I totally agree with Jack and eadad. All 3 kids from my d's school (in NC) who are going to Elon, applied to UNC, but did not get accepted. One kid also applied to N.C. State and was denied there as well. I also agree that you should visit the schools if at all possible. We started out over a year ago thinking that my d would probably be happier and more successful at a small private university. After a few visits; Duke, Davidson, Furman, W&L, etc. she knew that type enviroment wasn't what she was looking for in a college. We visited several large universities after that and she felt and liked the difference in the large campus enviroment, but as soon as she attended Carolina 101 last spring, she pretty much knew, like her dad has always told her: She's a Tar Heel born & bred! |
