Equestrian team?

<p>Hi,</p>

<p>I am considering applying to UNC-Chapel Hill as a transfer student for next year. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience w/ the equestrian team? I'm considering a few other colleges (UVA, Vanderbilt, W&M, JMU) and very interested in joining/trying out for the team. I do not come from a lot of money but worked as a working-student at a barn in exchange for lessons and travel to some local shows while I was in high school, so I do have experience, but I was never part of the showing-every-weekend-on-my-$100,000-horse crowd. Would I have a chance/be welcomed, do you think? </p>

<p>Any input appreciated. Thank you!</p>
