I was accepted to numerous top ranked universities and I visited dozens of campuses before deciding to attend UNCA. I am from the west coast and in my opinion if word ever gets out about this beautiful quaint little town and college, it will be inundated with students from that region.

I initially attended and graduated from a big "prestigious" university and had a good job in Asheville. I realized I wanted to pursue medicine as a career and went to UNC-A to receive my requirements. Although it is a smaller school, the level of education there is second to none. I am now in medical school and a lot of the material is simply review. I feel that I received TOP instruction from the entire "pre-med" deparments (chem, bio and physics) at UNC-A. It is one of the best in the country.

This school is serious. Do not come here expecting to party. The classes at UNC-A are more rigorous than Chapel Hill, or NC State, and you will be taught by a professor at all levels. No graduate assistants. More on par with Davidson or Duke. The geographic location could not be better. Kayaking, swimming, mountain climbing, mountain biking, skiing/boarding, and hiking are fantastic. Overall, this is a fantastic place to go to school if you don't crave the big time football "rah rah" campus party scene.
Faculty Accessibility: A+, Social Life: C
