University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Top Questions

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?

Abigail

When I tell my friends about my school I brag the most about the opportunities it presents. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill offers extraordinary opportunities to students both inside the classroom, to learn the importance of responsibility, integrity, and hard work, and to learn how to work well with others, and also outside of the classroom, by providing an array of activities and experiences meant to foster creativity, cultural diversity, and life-long learning.

Classes, friends made here, sports, opportunities

Grades, by far. I worked hard in high school but easily made good grades. At Chapel Hill, I work my butt off and everytime I get an A I want to frame it. It's made me value hard work so much more.

School spirit, sports teams, basketball, famous alumni like Michael Jordan, Mia Hamm, Marion Jones, Vince Carter, etc.

Bethany

Our basketball team. If there's one thing Carolina students can all agree on, whether they care and follow it closely or not, it's the fact that our basketball team is good. It brings the school together. Carolina pride is manifested in the attitudes of students towards our basketball team. Games are a community event, students bring friends, families bring their children, and alumni come together - Tar Heels born and bred enjoy this sport and the spirit of pride it brings to our community.

Nicole

We have a beautiful campus with old trees and forest trails. UNC is also becoming very dedicated to environmental conservation and sustainability.

School is large and it will be difficult to get to know all students of your class before you graduate Science courses may be tough Roads are slightly colonial, need to get used to campus area University of Never-ending Construction Rising tuition costs for out of state students, but still awesome tuition, relatively Depause they sometimes get tired Nice school newspaper Renovation and construction has its merits Transition system is okay Neighborhood is relatively safer and has a nice environment

basketball. greek life.

Our chemistry department, and sports.

Taniya

That I am so dedicated that I drive 75 miles everyday one way to school. I also like to tell them that I am not driving that far to get B's; I want all A's. Being a Tarheel gives you automatic bragging rights anyway.

Ryan

Athletics, mainly men's basketball and women's soccer. I also brag about how well known and academically centered the school is.

Sarah

The overwhelming school pride/spirit of current students, faculty and alumni would be number one. Next would be that it is a campus town in Chapel Hill. I love being able to walk to stores and restaurants. I love the campus surroundings: the Carolina Blue sky-the huge old trees, and the beautiful flowers.

Cara

That UNC has a great atmosphere, and I feel very welcomed when I walk on campus, never feeling out of place.

Mecca

The sports teams!

Derrick

The basketball team which is great.

Ian

It's easy to brag about Carolina because it's the best school in the country. So, I usually brag about Carolina on the whole. The students are all very intelligent and well-rounded, down-to-earth people. The friends I made there are invaluable to me. Moreover, the academics are challenging. I learned a lot at Carolina, and I feel confident about getting a good job after graduation. However, most of the bragging definitely happens over sports. Things get pretty heated during basketball season, especially with Duke, NC State, and Wake Forest just down the road.

Christopher

How beautiful the campus is.

Sierra

We are the number one University in North Carolina...
