This place is completely miserable. UNC thinks its awesome and so do most of the students?in regards to the university and themselves. That is, it's pure arrogance. Super Liberal and full of people who think they are open minded, but so far left they are pretty much a different version of the TEA party. Chapel Hill itself also sucks. People have compared it to Athens, GA which is completely unacceptable. I was told by my college counselors that UNC was the same thing as Athens, just a better school. FALSE. I've visited UGA and people there are happy, the campus is honestly nicer in my opinion, and Athens is a much better town than Chapel Hill. The school thinks it's some Southern gem, when in reality it's not. UNC wishes it had the same southern feel as SEC schools but tries to act like like harvard. For the record, North Carolina is not southern and the excessive ways people try to prove they are southern is pathetic. Accept your roots. This school will never be southern and neither will the state.

The brochures and propaganda of the school are so far away from the truth, they may as well have given you a brochure showing pictures of Hawaiian beaches and calling it UNC. I was told by few that undergrad doesn't really need the attention some give it. UNC is not a good place to be an undergrad as you will be miserable, hence why most people spend their weekends getting wasted to the point they forget they are in Chapel Hill. That's probably the only way you can survive here without losing your mind, if you haven't already while attending. UNC students assume they are great because of their acceptance to this once-amazing university. The main office tries to pretend they are the same school they were eons ago, and it really bothers me this false prestige is still accepted by the general public and ignoramuses who publish top university rankings. What goes around comes around, UNC. One day the truth will be exposed and you will be placed lower than alabama for academics and quality of life will be reviewed as a joke. I came here expecting some true university life and experience similar to those who went to college before me. I guess i am an idiot for not considering that most people who have really enjoyed their college experiences went somewhere else. I cannot wait to transfer. UNC is not what brochures, school tours, US news rankings, college counselors, or anyone tells you.

Furthermore, as a disclaimer, I have had a very good social life here with many friends but nothing is worth the misery that comes with attending this university. Misery loves company, and it's area code is 27599

responseWhere do you get the idea that North Carolina is not southern? Also, if most of the students think that the college is great, maybe you are the one with the problem and not the college or it's students.
So, you disliked UNC because the classes were too hard, or just because you're conservative?
responseAgain this sounds like a political critique, politics are debatable, but one says no to 90% spending cuts and a 10% tax hike has no right to define what is centrist, one's center right is or centrist is tomorrow's far left it seems.

Universities are not supposed to be "southern" as monotonous, if it was then its generally a negative, nevertheless give NC is south and most of in state student

population is there, it is a southern university, not sure what you mean by wanting it be more southern, it makes your review sound less credible, if your saying UNC is far left, having your roots and the city as some sort of patriotism can be seen as a negative.

A comparison review to other colleges would be welcome, how the campus is , or certain degree requirements, I am not blessing UNC, but a moody whiny comment without any specifics other than one's political beliefs or defined heritage is not credible.

Now if you had a more detailed review rather than sounding moody perhaps its more credible, such as a detailed experience about the major, course load, life,etc

questionSo…I shouldn't trust the students, experts, admissions advisors, or my own perception!?
commentI used to live at 27599 area code where this university is. I moved to Indiana to 317 area code https://areacodes.net/317 because I didn't want to enter this university. According to the reviews I see I did everything right.
commentThe most annoying thing about the university is responsibility and research work. I hate writing and that's why the most significant goal for me is to find dissertation writers for hire. I know that there are many of them but I need a credible person who is 100% professional because it is crucial for me.
commentHey, friends, and what exactly is the problem, because no one pulls you to go to study, and if there are problems in training, then probably many already know about the wonderful academic writing service and it really helps many.
