Didn't know he attended

Could someone fill me in on these sentences:

I didn't know you attended UNC. - Could I say this if the person's still going to UNC? Or should it be:

I didn't know you attend UNC.

Thank you.

"I didn't know you attended UNC" is better. You can use this whether or not the person is still going there. In conversation, most people would say "went to" rather than "attended".
