North Carolina State University at Raleigh Top Questions

I consider the community environment to be the best part of NC state. Its the biggest University in North Carolina, but to me it feels like one of the most supportive and unified community that I have ever been apart of. Everyone I see passionate about the school and is glad to be there. There is a lot of support in the classroom and in your everyday life to be your best in whatever you choose and it is nice to always have the community behind you to reach your goals.

Where to start? The reason I chose NCSU was because of all the amazing opportunities offered at the undergraduate level. Instead of applying into your major two years into college, students are already in their given major by their freshman year. In addition to that, the faculty are constantly involved in research and giving undergraduates the opportunity to get research experience early on. With a beautiful campus and long standing traditions, students at NCSU truly feel apart of the Wolfpack family even in the largest public school in North Carolina.

The resources available to students of every major are amazing at this institution. At the moment, I am enrolled in the college of engineering, and we have access to so many opportunities that likely are not available to engineering students at other colleges. For example, we have several 3D printer labs that any student can use. We also have guest speakers visit on a regular basis - several months ago the architect who design the Burj Khalifa visited NC State, and that's just one of many! In general NCSU is awesome.

I consider the best thing to be the professors. I have never had a professor who was not enganing and who did not try hard to help the student succeed. These professors are for the most part welcoming and are willing to work with the student to help them imporve and learn. Even when the class size is large the professors still try and make themselves accessible to the students.

The variety. NC State is a big school that provides so many opportunities for students to get involved. There is definitely something for everyone here. Whether it be a club, sport, hobby, religious affiliation, academic major, etc. Anyone and everyone can find a group or friends to get involved with that you don't even notice that the school is so big. And the school spirit is awesome!!

Also, an individual is assisted in finding a co-op and or internship that fits their major.

North Carolina State is a University that is dedicated to research and innovation, not only in North Carolina, but across the nation. Competition for acceptance is as competitive as it gets around the nation, and I am proud of my achievement of acceptance. North Carolina State will open numerous doors for me in the professional world, and give me the leg up on my peers that I will be competing with in the ever-increasingly tough job markets.

The diversity of extra-currivular activities that allow for personal development outside of academics.

The best thing here at NC State is the greeting and introduction to a wonderful academic career. You start out by taking tours with the smiling students who attend the very university. Then, when you finally decide to join the Wolfpack, you go through Orientation where you familiarize yourself with the student leaders, and join in on every bit of fun the univeristy has to offer! This kind of welcoming introduces the academically-rich student body into State in such a way that will be remembered for their entire careers at NC State. Go Wolfpack!

The best thing about the shool, North Carolina State University, is that it is a very big school. As such, you get to meet people, students and professors, in a wide variety of fields.

This is a large enough school that you are free to take a variety of classes and meet a variety of people, but not so large that you become lost in the crowd. I enjoyed this since I was able to make many friends and interact with people similar to me, but I also met and befriended many people that I may not have spoken to in another environment. Among those people, I met my husband, so we are both extremely fond of NC State.

The opportunities at NC State are plentiful. The number and variety of student organizations, from sports to academics, mean that there really is something for everyone. As a woman in engineering I expected to be one of the few, but NC State was ready. Through Women in Science and Engineering, or WISE, I have met fellow women with similar interests. WISE helped me transition to college, they showed me where my classes were and have tutors available to guide you through college classes. If you want to learn and have fun, NC State is the place to be.
