[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is the campus? We'll be visiting this summer with our son.[/quote]

Two of mine went there from MD. Because we used to live in Raleigh and they felt they wanted to go back. They both love sports and intramurals are huge at NC State. They both took PE all semesters. That they loved, LOL.

I will be honest i was not a fan.

Dorms, food, and campus itself yuck period there is no reality that is not true. Football games off campus also sucked.

What was great was internships and job prospects. Changing majors wasn't difficult, most academic counseling was pretty good in the engineering school, not the business school that is awful. Supply Chain is a huge major for Business students.  Mine were Electrical Eng/CS double majors. Then one got a graduate Degree in Textiles. Amazing program. What i will say is both got great jobs upon graduation. Both got great acceptances to fabulous higher-ranked schools for graduate work, which DS took advantage of. Both had internships that gave them great references years later. One of mine is 34 now she just became a CTO in Colorado on a reference from someone from her internship from NC State.

Campus isn't far from Downtown Raleigh, getting to airport at RTP is a pain at breaks.

Just like any college it has it's ups and downs. My kids felt they were very prepared for the coursework and maybe had one or two professors during the course of their time there that sucked.

Good luck.
