NC State is more qualified than you give credit. US News ranks NC State's Engineering program higher than Duke's. Duke / NC State / UNC are three strong universities.

Eh - quality of education and research aside, and it's fine in that regard, it still doesn't have the same prestige as the other two by a long shot.

I have experience with NC State, Duke, UNC. At the undergraduate level there isn't much difference between the three (except basketball).
