Welcome to the Pirate Nation!
I would recommend staying at the Best Western ..2310 Greenville Blvd. NE...(800)780-7234
It is a nice hotel and very easy to get to ECU from there (if you're not familiar with Greenville).
My S is a freshman at ECU. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'll be glad to answer if I can.

Sopranodad819.....Parker's is eastern NC style BBQ(chopped pork) complete with all the great sides including brunswick stew and cornsticks and great slaw. They also have fried chicken if some in your party don't like BBQ.
Harriet...I pm'd you

My husband and daughter stayed at the Quality Inn during their campus visit the first weekend of October.
D really liked the college and she applied a few days thereafter. I tried to find a status check of the application online but it appears that the only way you know if you are accepted/denied or missing any documents is via snail mail?

ECU notified us that my D was missing transcripts from her HS 3 weeks ago so if you have not heard anything your file is most likely complete. Good luck,let me know if she gets in.

JerseyShoreMom, My S applied to ECU last year in the first week of Oct. He got his acceptance in the mail in the first week of November! I couldn't believe how fast it was. The search was over and senior year was stress free, such a relief. Applying early really helps. Some of S's friends who waited later to apply had a much longer wait time on acceptance letter. I guess all the apps. start to really pile up as the semester goes on. If (eventually) you feel like too much time has passed with no word, you can call admissions. One of S's friends did and they told him over the phone that he was accepted.
Glad your D liked ECU.
