OOS Admission at UNC-Asheville

@Schadret App State is set in the mountains often covered in snow, in Boone NC. Great vistas and I do think there is a variety of winter sports. My son did part of his away clinicals for med school (UNC-CH) in that area and the snow there and in Asheville can pile up. Again their majors are varied and the location of the school is beautiful and OOS tuition isn’t too pricey.

The UNC system with its many unique campuses is a hidden gem for OOS.

Yes, App State is a hugely popular school here in NC. Boone is a great college town, and I think it’s an under-appreciated college OOS. Now that their football team just hit the top 25 maybe that’ll change?

I think it’s a bit similar to JMU in Virginia in terms of selectivity and student profile – but that’s based on things I’ve read here on CC about JMU; I don’t have firsthand knowledge of the school.
