"Alluring" about UNC also, is that OOS tuition is a lot lower than say, Michigan. We allowed our kids to put UNC on the list, but not Michigan.

Legacy is a HUGE hook for OOS applicants. (Even those who are not major donors).

Full pays bias this year? UNC slashed oos financial aid so would think so.

Isn’t it higher than that? I don’t get the appeal either but my whole family is from NC and I barely want to spend the holiday weekend with them.

Nice weather, nice campus, good basketball, seems fun, good reputation. It makes sense that it would be one of a group of public flagships to apply to EA.
