University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Report Card

Overall ExperienceWhat's This?

Students who attend Carolina are often happy with their choice—even if it wasn’t their first. UNC is surrounded by a great college town, is one of the most prestigious public schools in the nation, and is one of the most diverse schools in the nation. The list goes on and on. What more could a college student ask for? At times, yes, Carolina can seem a little redundant and repetitious, but so can any other school. However, if you find a good group of friends and find your niche at Carolina, you’ll always find something new around the corner.

This book is proof that your good experiences will outweigh your negative experiences by a ton at Carolina. Yes, there will be run-ins with teachers, failed midterms, pop-quizzes, parking catastrophes, shallow people, and messy, annoying roommates. However, that’s a part of college life at any school. It doesn’t take long to adjust to Carolina. It’s mainly common sense—hang out with old friends, make new friends, party, take a weekend trip or two (but don’t forget to bring along your books). Students who attend UNC realize that they are receiving a great college education and an even better college experience.

It Can Get Hot

Typical for the south, it is hot and muggy from June to September. The winter's aren't too cold, but there is the occasional snow fall. Spring is gorgeous, just beautiful, Carolina blue skies.

Usually Pretty Nice

It gets pretty hot in August and it can get cold in the winter, but overall the weather is pretty moderate. There are definitely seasons, so it can get up to 100 F and it does snow occasionally, but overall not so bad. The campus is kind of spread out though and it's a large campus, so you do walk outside a lot. As long as you prepare for the weather, it's usually not that big of a deal.

It's Improved

There are late night patrol people and other safety precautions. However, when I attended, there were rapes on campus and our student body president was murdered about 1.5 miles away from campus. Durham (the area surrounding Chapel Hill) is very unsafe. Chapel Hill itself is pretty safe but there are people who wander in from Durham so you always have to be cautious.
