<p>I think I have a good chance of being accepted into both of these schools, but I don't know which one I'd enjoy more!! My sister is a year older than me (we're very close!), and she just moved into her dorm at UNCW yesterday. I've been there with her and my parents several times, and it's great there because it's right by the beach! I like the warm weather there and a lot of the people seem great. It would also be cool to be around my sister because we grew up sharing a room, so we have a really close bond. </p>
<p>However, I'm not sure if Appalachian would be a better school for me or not. I've never actually visited Boone, but I know the weather is INSANE in the winter! I'm not sure if I would enjoy dragging myself up hills through blizzards to get to class...Based off of the weather I would definitely choose UNCW, but of course there are more factors that I need to think about. If any of you have any knowledge of NC schools, could you please let me know what the people are like at both schools, what the dorms are like, what the classes are like, etc? I need as much information as possible, preferably from people who have actually gone to these schools!! Thank you!</p>
