Interview Dinner Information

Top of the Hill

Come join us for a casual evening at a historic location on Franklin Street in downtown Chapel Hill. We use this time as a way to re-connect with our current residents and meet the applicants visiting us at UNC. Top of the Hill is known for its good food, great beer selection, and because it’s the best place in town to catch a UNC basketball game. If you have a minute, search "top of the hill UNC" at youtube.com, and check out one of the videos filmed from the patio following the 2009 NCAA Championship victory.
