I don’t want to offend anyone but iI thought Hinton James “mojo” was highly unimpressive. I know the kids like that it is very social but the young man walked us “outside” to show us his room. There were four rooms and an open bathroom. Looked very much in need of some freshening. Just my opinion. My son who had nothing to which to compare it said “well it’s not that horrible”.

You should tour Granville, if you haven’t done so already. It’s a dorm that’s not owned by UNC but they allow freshmen to live there (quite a few do as well as some sophomores). It has its own dining hall and is very close to campus and Franklin Street. The rooms are larger and more updated than many of the older, outdated UNC dorms (like Hinton James).

We actually toured Granville! Thanks so much for rec!!! My son not convinced it’s for him. He doesn’t want to “feel isolated” from the first year experience. Even though it’s 90% freshmen! I keep trying to remember that my 18 year old is an expert…. On everything!!!

if you do not qualify for aid for kids from OOS does UNC give any merit based scholarships?
