I thought that I was dead-set on Carolina. I would be a 7th generation legacy student and come from a big Carolina family. I love the atmosphere at the school and Chapel Hill. It was my very first choice until I got my financial aid package from Wake Forest. Wake Forest has been my second choice due to their smaller class sizes and appreciation for the IB program which I am a part of. I am a communication major so their programs are both good for that. They are similarly ranked in terms of academic rigor and sports and both check a lot of my boxes. I was hoping that current students or alumni of either school would be able to provide me with some insight? Thank you!
Go to UNC, wfu is not even close to the prestige of UNC.
Not sure where you’re getting that. In fact, US News would beg to differ.

US News has its flaws. Everyone knows that us news favors wake. Literally everyone I know picked UNC CH over wake and its not even up to debate.
Both excellent! Completely different feels. Large state university (not OSU large but still pretty big) vs. small liberal arts type college feel. Depends on what you prefer. Full disclosure, S attends Wake. Very easy to get involved in lots of things at Wake. Hard to be anonymous. The professor / student relationship is a real thing and the profs really want to help you find success.
