Need some more insight/help to make a decision (ASU, ECU, UNCC)

Alright, so I currently live a little north of Charlotte, NC and have gotten into the three schools I applied to (Arizona State, East Carolina, UNC Charlotte)

I plan to major in something business related. Although academics of each college is important, I would also like to have a good time wherever I decide to go. Atmosphere, traditions, social, sports are all factors in helping me decide. I’ve got a pretty decent idea of what each school would be like, but would like more insight on any of these schools to help me decide - I’M STUCK!

How I see each school currently:

ASU- “Dream school” (grew up following their sports and a fan of the college my whole life. Used to live in Mesa, AZ), overall pretty good business college, good campus and sports teams, atmosphere and student life there seems like it would be great. May be hard dropping everything in NC that I grew up with to take a new path across the country

ECU - Another great choice in my eyes, great campus and pretty good football team, and the atmosphere would be great. Business school is the worst of the three (to my understanding) but still not bad. In state and a lot of friends will be attending.

UNCC- Closest of them all,30 min drive from home, worst atmosphere overall compared to the three, but still in consideration due to them being the better business school and intership possibilities of my college choices in NC.

Also, cost is not a factor - all three are pretty much the same due to a scholarship from ASU cutting down the out of state cost. If anyone has anything to add insight on to help me decide it would be great… I really feel stuck on a decision. Thanks!

I live in NC so I may be able to give you a little help. Im a junior so I will be making a decision very similar to yours next year. Personally, I would pick ECU. It has the big college atmosphere as many flagship schools. ASU is very far away, and UNCC is a suitcase school. Also, assuming you want to stay in NC/SC after you graduate, I don’t think many companies will defer between UNCC and ECU.

ASU is a mega party school. Some people find it hard to stay focused there…very different social climate and lifestyle than in the South. Others are very successful there.

Yea I plan to stay/come back to NC after college, not sure if that would make a difference between ECU/ASU or not
