North Carolina State University Reviews

"I think that NCSU is a great school to attend as an undergraduate, especially in the context of other schools within the NCSU system. I had a lot of really great professors, and as an R1, they offer a lot of research opportunities as well. I would definitely recommend going to NCSU!"

"I had a wonderful experience at NCSU. The vast majority of the professors I had genuinely cared about student success and were pretty good teachers. Some were downright excellent. There were a ton of clubs and activities. The food was great. The campus is lovely, although the bricks can get annoying in the yard. I also did an MS degree here and they completely revamped the library. I had a wonderful time at NCSU and wouldn't trade it. Highly recommend."

"I loved my time at North Carolina State University! The Microbiology department is small and I ended up getting acquainted with a lot of my classmates and most of the teachers! It felt cool to see a lot of the same faces in the upper-level classes. I liked my undergrad so much there that I'm currently applying to grad school there!"

"NC State University provided me with a great education that has adequately prepared me to pursue my graduate degree. Studying science can be challenging, but the network of students, professors and TAs willing to help you succeed is amazing. Although the biology program is rigorous, it taught me how to study and manage my time. I am proud to say that I completed my degree Magna Cum Laude and I am pursuing my Master's degree in Physician Assistant Studies. NC State helped shape me into an intelligent member of society and a competitive applicant for programs.Read Less"
