[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]

UGA and Texas are a bit too far away from the DC area (and NY/NJ/PA/CT). Not driveable in a day, and just a bit too "southern."

UVA and UNC a peer schools for those of us in NY/NJ/PA/CT. My sense is they're seen as quite comparable.

But for many in DC/MD, UVA feels too . . . common . . . . while UNC is a way to spread wings a bit more.

And for UVA residents, it's a whole other equation. Choosing UNC OOS over UVA in-state would be madness unless UNC offered enough money to make the cost equal. [/quote]
