| I'm instate and yes Elon is a good school with a beautiful campus, but it is not academically as prestigious as UNC, Wake Forest, or Davidson. Also the town it is in (elon, nc) is near Burlington, NC...there isn't much to do there...its about 45 minutes from UNC-Chapel Hill I would say, but Burlington area is boring.
Elon is known to be "rich" "frat" oriented community, at least from what I've heard. and yea, not many people turn down UNC for Elon unless they have a big scholarship.
I know 10,000 is a lot of debt, but u have to consider ur future. I would almost say that Elon would be a safety for me (and my stats are above average instate, but probably worse than urs if u got into UNC oos).
just something to think about. I mean u won't go wrong either way, but if I had to choose... |
