North Carolina State University at Raleigh Top Questions

I always tell people how many great opportunities there are at State. There is always something to do that can fit everyone's interests. I also love our great school spirit and sense of community. If you see anyone if a school shirt on you know you can easily talk to them and get along.

Getting into North Carolina State University alone is something to brag about. It’s a very competitive school and requires a show of discipline. However, I brag because it is one of the top rated schools in Veterinary Medicine and Animal Studies. Seeing as how I wish to become a Veterinarian it is an amazing feeling to know that I have been accepted to a top school.

The psychology department at NC State and the professors I have had and the passion they have for teaching the subject they teach.

How big we are. Although this sounds intimidating it actually has provided me with a ton of opportunities that I wouldn't have gotten in a smaller school. There are so many clubs, sports, and volunteer opportunies on campus. This allows me to pick and choice things of interest to me and its a great opportunity to meet new people of all different backgrounds. The culture and acceptance of students on campus is excellent and I feel right at home.

How often I get to play ultimate frisbee and how even though we are not local to any mountains on which we go snowboarding/skiing, we still have the ski and board club which I am part of and thoroughly enjoy.

I brag that I go to a school with a wide variety of people, and every day brings different experiences that I will cherish for a long time to come.

N.C. State is a big school that combines strong athletic programs with strong academic programs.

I brag about lots of NC State's perks to my friends! Firstly, I love the research and academic opportunities that State offers. None of my friends at other schools have had the same opportunities that I have had. In the past semester I have discovered a new bacteriophage in my Biotechnology research class and sent it off to a lab for genetic sequencing. This opportunity never would have been available to me if I had selected another school. Also, the food isn't that bad! My friends at other schools complain all the time, but ours is actually decent.

I definitely brag about the school spirit! Our WOLFPACK RED &WHITE is like no other! The campus is made up of manypeople with different beliefs,races,and views but one thing we ALL see eye to in is that the NCSU WOLFPACK is absolutely INCREDIBLE! attendence at all sporting events is always flooded by NC State students and Alumni! Once part of the pack your always part of the pack. The way we support each other as a family says it all. The pack has your back. GO STATE!!!!

The thing I would have to brag the most about at NC State is the sense of unity one feels during big events on campus. On game days, for example, almost everyone is dressed in red and ready to cheer on the Wolfpack! It has been said that the "strength of the wolf is the pack", and we live by that credence. People go out of their way to make friends with others on campus, as well as in small groups or clubs that are available at State. All of these things lead to a great college experience here.
