Question about Colleges in North Carolina

Hey guys, does anyone know about Western University in North Carolina? Got it in a college fair and am intrigued but can't find a lot of info online.

Hello, it seems there's been some confusion - there isn't a Western University in North Carolina. There is, however, a Western Carolina University (WCU), which might be what you're thinking of. WCU is located in the town of Cullowhee, North Carolina, which is nestled in a beautiful area surrounded by the Great Smoky and Blue Ridge mountains.

It's a public university and part of the University of North Carolina system. WCU offers a wide range of undergraduate majors in disciplines such as business, education, fine and performing arts, and health sciences. Fun fact: it's also home to the only body decomposition facility, similar to “body farm,” in North Carolina, used for criminal justice and forensic anthropology research.

If you're looking for a college in a rural setting with a strong sense of community, WCU could be a good fit. Besides academics, they have a robust athletics program, with their teams known as the Catamounts. Don't forget to consider the transportation and occasional seclusion due to location while making your decision. The best way to get more info would be to reach out to their admissions office or check if they host virtual tours or info sessions. Hope this helps!
