Katie // Graphic Design"I am the 5th generation to attend NC State in my family. I was practically born on NC State's campus. In fact, I have never considered going to college anywhere else. I knew if I was accepted in Design, it meant this college was the right path for me, and I needed to seize the opportunity. My yearbook class spurred my initial interest in applying to Design. I was never happier than when I was designing layouts or snapping photographs for the yearbook. After that class, I began researching Graphic Design. Based on a friend's recommendation, I attended NC State's high school Design Camp program. Although the camp was supposed to be a taste of Design, I loved every aspect of it. A girl I met at camp is now my roommate and one of my closest friends." |

Jay // Architecture"Considering the excellent faculty, resources, course offerings, and comparably low tuition, I was instantly interested in coming to NC State to major in Architecture. However, I decided to join the NC State College of Design family not only because I would be receiving a high quality education for a very reasonable expense but also because of the welcoming environment and exciting overall campus atmosphere. Speaking specifically from my experience in design studios and classes, I feel that I am in tight knit community with supportive peers and faculty members who constantly challenge me to improve my work and succeed. That said, I am quite grateful to be a member of the College of Design here at NC State." |

Marc // Industrial Design"I've been a Design student for three years now, and I am reminded every day that my choice was the correct one. There is without a doubt, no better school at which to study Design. The teachers and faculty are top notch, the students are some of the nicest human beings I've met and the facilities have everything a student needs to realize their vision. The College of Design and everyone who works here and attends here give it something that no other department or university has: personality." |

Matt // Architecture"The College of Design at NC State has a rich history that is one of the top programs in the southeast. This prestigious reputation led me to pursue NC State's Architecture program. I had known for a long time that I wanted to study architecture, so the choice of college was one of the most important decisions of my life thus far. In the end, NC State College of Design proved to be the best fit for me. The small size allows me to create strong friendships with people from many different majors. In addition, its location within a major public university allows me the opportunity to take part in experiences outside of Design." |
