Yeah, if you're one of the ~15,000 or so students out of millions who qualifies for both admissions and funding at those 3 schools.

The U.S. News top 30 has a TOTAL enrollment of something like 150k. They are the elites. It'd be a lot less than that but some bigger publics like UC Berkeley just barely make the cut.

UNC tied with Georgetown and above UVA. Not so shure. Especially when UNC mandates at least 85% of students be from in state. They say the out of staters dominate there academically.
