Having gone to UVa, I am duty bound to hate all Tarheels. That said, way to go. UNC is a great school.

Tell him congrats!

FWIW - don't let him get burnt out... A friend studied that and nearly had to take a semester off to catch back up on life. He's not a 4.0 student, but got good grades. O-Chem and a few other science classes killed his personal life... :/

it's automatic.

An extra 60k would have really helped those tuition bills....

Congrats to the kid, and his parents who must have done a good job raising him up right!

Congratulations Ben.

Tuition's like beer money for in-state residents.

I have a sibling living down there in Onslow County. 2 daughters thru Chapel Hill; son went to State. (guess he was the lesser light - brawn not brain)

O-chem!! O-Gawd !! Hardest course my daughter took in college... and she was no light weight.

Isn't CH a pretty PC campus??

you got that right. tuition is less than $4k per semester. chump change compared to where he was going to go before (Georgia Tech -out of state tuition-- $40 per year).

he has a college fund that I started when he was born. however, with interest rates so low, I am thinking of letting him get student loans instead then use the college fund money on a house down payment.

Congrats to the kid (and you)!

I'm hoping I can talk my kids into staying in our state university system. I'm not above bribing them with a sizable chunk of cash (nice house down payment money) upon graduation in return for not squeezing me near death financially, and/or tying that anchor around their necks, for the foreseeable future.

You dirty old dog, you!
