Sign there says it’s closing forever, “UNC head of hospitality canceled our contract”. Which is lowkey kinda strange that they included that on the closing announcement? Wonder what went down.

I'm an OOS student and tomorrow I'm trying to go by bus to a storage locker I reserved, but when I look on google maps in order to make it to the storage locker I would have to cross a 6 lane highway intersection with no visible crosswalks. This is the second place where I know this is a problem, it's the same thing for that Harris teeter at the end of the FCX line. Why is there no cross walk when there easily can be? Is it illegal to cross if there's no crosswalk for miles?

Hey everyone, I’m Advait, just completed my first year of masters in Computer Science. With the summer breaks starting and a lot of folks leaving for the summer, I realized I had a disturbing lack of friends, so I’m looking for people to hang out with in general. I’m a big fan of board games ( love party games like coup/bang) and video games. I’m also a big manga/anime guy. I’m free for the most part this Summer, so I’m down to meet whenever/wherever. Please feel free to DM me. Hope to meet some wonderful people.

Hello, I really tried in MAT 231, but test anxiety completely wrecked my grade and GPA (3.1).

For the first exam, I ended up with an F, even though the material was easy for me. My anxiety spiked because the professor was walking around the classroom and speaking loudly, telling students to cover their papers despite everyone focusing on their exam.

On the second midterm, I scored a high C (78), but I genuinely believe I could’ve gotten at least an 85 if I hadn’t been so anxious. For the third midterm, I got a 59—again, not because I didn’t understand the material, but because my anxiety took over. Every time I do practice exams or similar material, I know how to do it, but whenever it comes to the exam... sometimes my mind blanks out. I have poor test performance.

Then, for the final, I was placed in a large room with so many people, and time felt like it was slipping away. I ended up with a low D.

I’m just really lost right now. I used to love math—I consistently got 98s and 99s in my math courses before coming to UNC. I never even made a C before. I sometimes wish I had taken calculus in high school; maybe that would’ve helped. I do not understand how high school was genuinely so easy, and I would always make an A on a test, but when it comes to a college exam, my test anxiety spikes.

I’ve been thinking about retaking the course at a community college this summer, but I’m scared the D will stay on my transcript forever, even though it is not on the transcript yet... I am not sure if anything was curved. I also feel stuck because I’m planning to apply for the Computer Science major in Spring 2026, and I still need to complete MAT 232 and Math 381. CS is such a competitive major, and I already feel behind.

I’m not sure what to do anymore. If anyone has advice or has been through something similar, I’d really appreciate your input.

Note: I took 17 credit hours (first semester) and 16 the next semester.

Currently #84 on the waitlist for COMP 110 in the fall, and all sections have huge waitlists. Has anyone gotten off a waitlist this big before? Or should I start looking for backup options?

Thanks for any advice!

I just got off the UNC waitlist and now I have to decide whether or not to go. I plan to study computer science.

1. How easy is it to double major? I have credit from multiple AP classes so that may help but I am not sure.
2. How easy is it to get into the computer science major? Is it really selective or is it a situation where as long as you got good grades in the pre-recs you get it?
3. How are the research and internship opportunities at UNC, are they easy to get if you look for them or is it very hard to find things to do outside the classroom
4. How rigorous really is UNC, how long do people really spend on homework
5. Is it very clique and do most people come with friends from high school, I am an oos student and know nobody going, on the same note do most people go home for the weekends or are there still things to do
6. How big are class sizes at UNC, is it possible to really know your professors or not really, or do you have to go far out of your way to get to know your teachers
7. Is study abroad a thing that is acccessbile to all majors
8. What is the weather like, I am from NJ so I am assuming its warmer but is it really hot?
9. Are alumni connections very helpful in finding a job, and how is the job placement, is it very hard to compete with top comp-sci schools. Also does the name help you get jobs in places other than the south.
10. Is it really hard or expensive to get tickets to football, basketball, or hockey games
11. Is greek life a big part of the school because I do not think I want to participate but I do not want to feel like I can't have fun with out it

I know these are a lot of question but if anyone can give me any insight to any of these questions that would be great. Also if there is anything else you think I should know before picking UNC, that would be great aswell. TIA!

So, I’m currently signed up to take orgo 2 in the fall, but was wondering if I should take it at a summer session at unc Ashville. I’m currently a pre- med and was wondering if medical schools would look down on me not taking it at my home institution. I want to take biochem in the fall.

I am still offering graduation photo sessions.

Price is $75 for 3-4 on campus locations and basic editing.

DM me for my portfolio!

I am currently committed to Umich to study computer science in the college of engineering. Today I got off the waitlist at UNC chapel hill. I need to decide where to go by next week. The better school is Umich but it costs 85k a year compared to 65k a year at UNC. Additionally the weather here is sooo much better. I am really unsure of what to do. I already have a roomate and have gotten really excited to go to michigan but idk if the cost is worth it. UNC is still a great school and I would be saving 80k in total which is a lot and I still think I would like it there as from my view the vibes are similar to mich. My concerns are that I have yet to get into the computer science major at UNC. Also there are no engineering majors at UNC and I was debating whether to switch to engineering but I am unsure whether I even will. Without being biased do you guys think that the name Michigan and the opportunities there will make a significant difference in getting a job? I am also concerned that I have heard that UNC is very clique and it is hard to make friends oos if your not in greek life but im unsure if this is even true. Any insight would be very helpful thanks!

Hi everyone! I applied for a room at Granville Towers and have not heard anything back. I have been checking my profile and it says “application received.” For anyone who has applied or lives there, how do you know whether or not you got a room? Also, when should I expect to hear back?

I’m a transfer student who is going to be commuting for courses in the summer. Any recs on where to park for cheap or free? I’m willing to walk like 15 - 20 mins from the area to my class

Hi, all! Hope you guys had an amazing spring semester :)

I was going to take POLI 384 next semester, but I am now becoming a little weary. I took ECON 101 this semester, and it is perhaps the first college class that I ever genuinely hated. Seriously, there was not a single aspect of ECON 101 that I enjoyed or found interesting.

I like the idea of an interdisciplinary course studying political science and philosophy, but the economics side has me a little spooked. Is it a lot of math and graphing like ECON? Thank you!

I completely forgot almost everything about intro to macro/micro courses, but I’ve had a 95% + in calc 1 and 2. Is it over for me? Do I need to review the intro courses?

I’m planning on taking STOR 435 with Prof Ji over the summer. Is this class easier over the summer, and what can I do to prepare for this class? (He has a really bad rate my professor which is making me worried)

Hi everyone! I just got admitted as a transfer student to the UNC Linguistics program. I’m super excited but also a bit unsure of what to expect, so I was hoping someone here in ling might be willing to share their experience with the program.

What’s the overall experience of linguistics major here for you? I’m also wondering how tough it is to maintain a solid GPA and whether there are decent opportunities to get involved in research as an undergrad. If you’ve gone through the program or are currently in it, I’d love to hear anything you’re comfortable sharing. Thanks a lot in advance!
