Campus Visit Notes for East Carolina University


Visit Description:

I was very disappointed by my campus tour. It started out well. We had a tour guide who was very funny but ditzy. It all went downhill when she took us to the bookstore about 15 minutes into the tour. It was Freshmen Orientation day and the store was extremely crowded. She set us loose and said we would continue the tour in about 10 minutes. After a while, my family looked around and realized that our guide was no where to be found. We waited a few more minutes and still did not see our guide or anyone else in our group. We left the campus very disappointed and crossed ECU off our list.
