Ugh everyone talking about the restaurants on their campuses is making me rethink my first choice for colleges... It's in the middle of nowhere, the "mall" nearby has about 8 stores, and only a Starbucks on campus. But that's only because the CEO of Starbucks went there.
And it gets 12 feet of snow every winter. Yaaay.

This sounds EXACTLY like my school. Except our mall has around 12 stores and our Starbucks in campus is the only one in a 50 mile radius. You'll learn to like it though. You really get to know the people since there's not much to do. Don't count it out just yet.

If that's your main criteria for schools, you're looking at the wrong things.

Haha I wasn't being completely serious. I like the school because they have a really good nursing program and its one of the more affordable schools in my state. I just like to whine about the whole "12 feet of snow thing" haha

I'm glad that small schools still have their upsides. I've stayed at incredibly big schools and incredibly small schools for various camps and clinics, and I much prefer small campuses. I hate walking long distances, and I don't like that big universities feel like cities instead of schools.

Just because it's a big university doesn't mean it's a big campus! I know my campus has 28,000 students and all of my classes are a 10 minute walk AT MOST and that's only because there's a lot of construction going on right in the middle of our campus.

Yeah, I guess that would be ideal. It just seems like all the schools in Michigan are so spread out... I had stay at Michigan State for a journalism camp and it took me half an hour to walk to one class. I thought I was going to pass out from the walking after one day. That's when I swore off big schools, especially ones that don't let you have a car.

Don't rule out the big schools for that reason. Definitely make sure you go visit all of them because some could have a small campus feel with a big campus name!
 
I'll be a Junior this year. I've been up to Boone so many times, so I basically already know my way around! And when I cheered for my school we had camp up there. It's definitely my #1 choice! Im also thinking about UNCW
That's so funny! My final 2 schools that I chose from "back in the day" were the same ones! I ended up going with UNCW. Loved it!!! Best years of my life...until I had Babydonna, that is. :cloud9:

My CP was born in Wilmington. In fact, she was born right after Fran. Even with that, living there was the best time in my life! I always said that the college students were some of the happiest teenagers I've ever seen!

Next year at this time, she'll be moving into her dorm. :( So I guess I'm shopping for ideas early. Trying to stay positive! Thanks you guys!
