[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good weather, friendly student body, fun sports rivalry with Duke and N.C. State nearby, cute college town, some good programs. I think hype is just northerners wanting warmth and selectivity for oos based on state mandated percentage to be in-state. This is said as a resident, it’s good they want to educate their own. Mine weren’t interested, wanted to spread wings, but that’s my opinion on why there is perceived hype.[/quote]

Yes, but that’s no different from UVA, UGA, Texas or any other southern flagship that is selective for oos. [/quote]

UVA and UGA aren’t nearly as restrictive for OOS.

If UNC admitted 30% of both in state and OOS…then it would be talked about like UMD (which has same admit rates at like 34%).[/quote]

So you’re admitting all you care about is the acceptance rates? [/quote]

I am saying that people in the DMV think it is exclusive because of the guard rails on OOS and so it has a strange cachet.

If they did not have those guard rails and it had a 30% acceptance rate for anyone it would be thought of as a good school…but wouldn’t assign a strange status to it.[/quote]

But their I’m state rate is higher than UVA and UGA, so who cares?[/quote]
