University of Maryland - College Park had a new discussion posted by spmetz

My son is coming to UM as a freshman on the basketball team this summer. Will he like it there? How are the athletes accepted by the other students?

who????

People love Maryland Athletics, especially basketball. They support the athletes well and he will certainly be accepted by other students, he'll practically be a celebrity.

University of North Carolina - Wilmington Academics had a new discussion posted by spmetz

My youngest son is considering UNCW for pre med. Does the school do a good job of preparing students for medical school and have a high rate of Med School acceptance?

very hard to get into, almost need a 4.0

East Carolina University Campus Housing had a new discussion posted by spmetz

My son is a junior at ECU and housing I'd the biggest negative we experienced. Rooms are small and outdated compared to many other schools and roommate matching is non existent except if you know someone to match up with via a direct request. My son had a horrible roommate as a freshman and would have transferred had he been required to stay on campus.

The good news is there are tons of nice, affordable off campus housing options that are close by.

The province is a very nice housing option which is walking distance from campus they offer great perks for living there but it is very pricey.

I stay off campus. Its cheaper, I had the option of choosing whether or not I wanted a roommate, and there's free transportation.

Just recently ECU made it mandatory for non local Freshman students to live on campus.
