Hello! I applied to and got in both UNCC and UofSC. I applied as a Communications/Journalism major, and I’m having difficulty choosing between the two schools. They’re around the same, but I know that UNCC is more known for it’s Comms/Journalism dept than UofSC is. I want to be able to go study abroad in Europe and Asia down the road, but I’m not sure which school would be best for that as I do want to eventually work outside of America.
I visited both campuses and personally loved UNCC a whole lot more - even though I’m in-state for UofSC. I also think that there are more opportunities in Charlotte than there is in Columbia, which only makes me lean more toward Charlotte. Though I didn’t get through the first round, I was a Levine Scholar nominee as well.
I applied to UNC as well but decisions don’t come until 2020 anyway. As for now, I’m in a real bind as to what school would be the best investment! I also applied for UNCC Honors but didn’t for UofSC.
Please help! UNCC has been my top pick because of my major, but finances are worrisome.
