What would be the reason not to go to UGA?

I really enjoy new experiences - I grew up going to uga and spent a fair amount of time there. also nc state seems to really emphasize diversity.

Congrats on your acceptances! At the end of the day I'd go to the least expensive school and take all factors into account: tuition/fees, cost of living, travel costs to go home on breaks etc.

I am in the camp that four years goes fast, and saving money by going in state means you get to take cooler vacations later.

OOS NC State current 1st-year here! In general, highly recommend it. NCSU was actually cheaper than my IS (Ohio) which was part of my decision. NCSU does really emphasize diversity and you can get IS residency after the first year, which they advise you on how to do. I'm also a big advocate of go wherever is cheapest, you'll end up a DVM all the same. NCSU also has a few scholarships, if you are able to get one of those.
