      @BosoxnationI972 This is AWESOME! You went to some really great places! Carolina Square is such a nice complex and great location! Good fellows is always such a blast! Love drinking on the porch at Top of the Hill! Might as Well and Pantana Bobs are both great bars - they have huge crowds after midnight, lines out the door! Squids, Stoney River, Hickory Tavern, and City Kitchen are also all so delicious to me! Stoney River has an amazing Carrot cake if you go back! Loveeee this you sound like a local! :)

    So here's my parking story... Year's ago (I won't mention how many) when I was faced with the prospect of having to pay a large sum (drinking money) to get a parking permit, I was walking by the university president's residence (William Friday before he passed away) and noticed these parking spots in the back of his house. So I looked up his number in a phone book and called his house and asked if I could meet him. He responded by inviting me to his house for lunch where I met his wife and we chatted about my first couple of years experience there at UNC. I then brought up my parking delima and mentioned that I noticed he had extra spaces behind the house, and I asked him if he would mind if I parked my car at his house for the year. He must have been impressed by my bravado, because he happily agreed! Not only did I get to park my car at the President's house for the last two years of my time there, but I also learned a very valuable lesson in life. Have the courage to ask, and the world may occasionally answer you with a magical, "Yes!"

      This is awesome!! I actually also got to park my car at a professors house for a semester when I told her about my pains with parking, she lived right on Hillsborough street across from the arboretum! UNC definitely has amazing people around!!

      Hi!! Good luck 😊 I personally was not a transfer or older student, but I did live with a transfer - and she fit in really well and got the full UNC experience! My advice is to live with roommates to help you assimilate, so you aren't alone - check out "UNC Chapel Hill Subleases, Roommates, Off Campus Housing & Apartments" on Facebook, people always post looking for roommates, hope that helps!

And to be honest, I was so miserable at my previous college (which I won’t name), I was just glad to not be there anymore.
