The University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill

You pretty much have to create your own satisfaction, if you're not enjoying what you are doing, you will not enjoy what is around you either.

I've said it before, if you want attention, you better seek it out. Join clubs to meet people. There is not animosity among in-state and out-of-state. According to responses on here it seemed that most of the out-of-state students looked down upon the education of in-state students. I had an out-of-state student ask me what I made on a paper in English class after he told me he made a B+, and when I said A, he said that was what he made too, and said a B+ because he didn't want me to feel bad.

Athletics is a huge part of the UNC identity but you don't have to be a fan to take in what the school offers. Go check out a play put on by the drama department, join dance marathon, watch an acapella group.

It is true that most out-of-state students would most likely out perform the in-state students. The out-of-state students that come to UNC are designated the cream of the crop and UNC is very selective as to who they accept in that regard.

There are definitely cliques. I am a minority who happened to socialize mostly with the majority. If you want to have a good life after graduation, start making your connections now. This is one thing that I regret I did not do. Life isn't just about the degree. As one of my professors said, "It's not what you know, or who you know. It's who knows you!" This is true no matter what school you go to. It also helps if you don't spend all of your undergrad just enjoying the moment but also planning out the future and having a direction.
