Plan to attend grad school for further study

Thanks for sharing :)

As a high school student, I’m currently interested in Emory, UNC, and USC, and I’m hoping to pursue a PhD or Graduate school in the future (possibly in biology/neuroscience-related fields) (not in the pre-med route).

I have a few questions:

1. Which school provides better opportunities for undergraduates to get involved in research? How accessible are professors and research labs for undergraduate students who want to apply for grad school/ PHD?

2. Does it feel overly competitive, and is it difficult to maintain a strong GPA?

3. Are facilities like libraries, study spaces, and other academic resources usually accessible, or do they tend to be overcrowded?

4. I’m more of an introverted person and I’m not really interested in Greek life. What is the overall campus/social experience like? Is it easy to find communities and make friends outside of Greek life?

Thank you so much for any advice!
