I'm going to transfer to a university in NC. My choices are...
1. East Carolina University
2.North Carolina State University
3. University of North Carolina in Wilmington
I want to hear some comments about these universities. Pro's and Con's. I know a lot can depend on the program of study...so I'm going to major in business management. Anyone who studies/studied in these schools or knows anything about them please let me know.

ECU - party school reputation. However, it has solid academics. It is isolated in the eastern region (but not shoreside), so it is the most intact campus school of your choices. (And not much is around to do except party, which kind of tells you why it is a party school.)
NCSU - tech school reputation. It is phenomenal with all engineering aspects, agricultural science, technology, computers, science, etc. I don't even know about its business reputation but think it's probably OK. This school is in Raleigh and while the college sampus is kind of tight, a lot of students live off campus and commute. My brother went there and loved it.
UNCW - beach school. Phenomenal rep where marine sciences is concerned, but I've known too many who do not graduate ... I think students who do not connect to the school tend to drop out. Stay on or near campus, become active in the school activities, and stay focused -- the allure of the beach distracts.

North Carolina State is the big state school.

Why not UNC/Duke?
