<p>Okay. So I got back from Chapel Hill yesterday, and my opinions of UNC were very favorable. </p>
<p>I was technically supposed to make a decision on whether or not I would attend by today, but since my financial aid package isn’t ready yet I don’t need to make a decision until Monday.</p>
<p>It looks like the big difference between the two is cost. WM costs me about $27k a year with all financial aid and small scholarships. UNC on the other hand, if the financial aid office’s projections hold true, will cost me about $8-9k.</p>
<p>I have a pretty low EFC, and UNC promised to meet it all with about 90% grants and 10% loans. The difference in price is about $20k a year, which adds to $80k in 4 years. </p>
<p>So, it looks like I will be going to UNC in the fall. I’ll be honest though, if the prices were even I would rather go to WM. </p>
<p>I definitely won’t be suffering at UNC, though. My only concern is what 18k students will look and feel like in the fall.</p>
