<p>Even with the money and admittance into the Honors Program, my state school (UNC-Chapel Hill) is still cheaper; this means I will most likely not attend Clemson. But congrats to everyone else who has been accepted for Fall 2010.</p>

<p>Which is better , getting waitlisted or getting bridge?</p>
<p>This year I think you are better off getting bridged. At least you are guaranteed entry as a sophomore with almost all the benefits of being Clemson student (while saving a good chunk of money). Wait list this year is likely very long after the big mistake they made last year. Would not count on many getting a chance as I bet this year they will take a smaller than normal freshman class, especially when you consider they are growing Bridge to 550ish this year which means around 400 extra transfers coming as soph’s in 2011. </p>
<p>Just my opinions, may not be right. Then again I may be!</p>
<p>I have no problem with Clemson taking more students and expanding the Bridge Program but we are starting to get to the point on campus where it’s starting to feel crowded. The problem is that with all the budget problems, Clemson needs all the tuition money it can get but there is not enough room for everybody. </p>
