It's an in-state school, so it was within my price range, and it's a very prestigious school. It gave me the best value for my education, and it's close to home. I looked at out of state schools, and the quality of education was about the same for double the price.

Course Curriculum

10

The English program recently changed, so it doesn't require as many classes as it used to. I'm currently in the creative writing track, which offers a lot of flexibility. Of course, there are some annoying Gen-Eds I need to take, but overall the curriculum is flexible.

Fees

There's a fee for everything, from your meal plan to LFIT. But since it's an in-state school, it's a better deal than a private school.

Examination Structure

The STEM students are always freaking out during the final season, but as a humanities student, it?s been manageable. The course load generally at UNC is a lot, so expect to work pretty hard on your exams.

Faculty

The faculty is great. Super knowledgeable and caring, especially in the English department. I recommend getting to know the professors through their office hours. Even if you're in a big lecture class, the professors love getting to know students one-on-one.
