I'm unsure at this point. Both great schools in the same geographical location like you said. I think I'm leaning more towards UNC but Emory offered up money which makes it enticing. Still waiting on other Round 2 schools too.
I want to pursue a career in finance (most likely investment banking) and UNC and Emory places the same percentage (last time I checked). Still lots to think about at this point.

Cool.
Doesn't it help to be in a City for your career goal - from networking point of view? And I think, the money on the table helps when it comes to recruiting.
But yea, UNC is just great one there. I truely believe in tiered ranking and then fit. So, those two are very similar. It totally depends on money and what lifestyle you want.
Have you visited schools?

Wanted to give my notes to anyone else with an interview coming up
This was a blind interview, the adcom only had my resume
Questions asked:
1. Why do you want to go to business school?
2. What do you want to do post business school?
3. What do you see yourself doing in the long term?
4. Do you currently work in a team? What do you think is the most important thing when working with teams?
5. What is your best attribute that your manager, colleague or direct report would say about you in terms of soft skills?
6. What is something you would want to work on?
7. What is your greatest accomplishment?
8. Why UNC Kenan Flagler?
9. Questions for the interviewer
It was a fairly conversational interview with follow up questions related to my answers. A couple of things of note. The interviewer gave me the impression that UNC prioritizes an applicants ability to work in teams because they focus on a collaborative learning environment. Also, beyond just their clubs or curriculum offerings, the interviewer talked a lot about how UNC prides themselves on their leadership program, so that's worth talking about when answering "why kenan flagler?".
Hope this is helpful to someone
