[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i am an alum and have a bunch of OOS friends and IS friends (though I got in IS) and here are some of the things they did:

in my graduating class I knew of one Rhodes and a handful of Fulbrights -- most of those were OOS.

many went to law school and now practice, often in-house somewhere. I did have one big law friend, but she only did that for 5 years before going in-house.

a few went on to get PhDs in Humanities fields, some from Ivies (Yale, Columbia)

many of the high-achieving Instate students I knew were pre-med and are now doctors. Like, a huge number. For some reason, I know more in-state kids who chose this option than OOS... maybe there is a calculation that those people made because they knew they would also have to pay for med school, so paying $4,000 per year for tuition for UNC-CH was extremely prudent.

one was a CS major and is now high up at Apple and works in Cupertino

I was OOS state at UNC and a good friend who was also OOS went off to grad school at Stanford and then started a start up with some peers….now it’s called google. She cashed out several years ago and is living an amazing ($$$) life.
