<p>I am debating between the elementary education program at Clemson and NC State. Both programs are small and I love that you stay with your class of 60 for the entire four years. I have visited both. Love the over the top school spirit at Clemson and the location of NC State. I am OOS for both school. Any help?</p>
<p>Both schools are about the same in that they both have excellent elementary education programs. You’ll have to decide which environment you like the best - the small town of Clemson or the bigger city of Raleigh. (They’re 2 different places for 2 different type of people). I will say that the school spirit at Clemson is unbelievable and you’ll form a bond with the university that stays with you for the rest of your life. While there isn’t a whole lot to do outside of the university, there are a lot of activities/organizations on campus and there are 21,000 students so you’ll have no problems making friends and finding some people to hang out with.</p>
