<p>I just got an email saying I have been invited to attend Carolina 101 this spring. I was wondering if anyone has past experience with this program? Is it something they invite everyone who has shown interest in the school to? For example, making a UNC Portal account, sending SAT scores, etc. Thanks.</p>
<p>Does anyone have any information on this? Did anyone else get this invite? Is it actually selective or do lots of people get invited? I have done a lot of research on UNC, and I have never heard of this program before, so I’m both excited and curious. Any help/info would be appreciated! :)</p>
<p>My daughter went to a similar program in the fall. The invite was based on your PSAT/SAT (don’t remember which) scores.</p>
<p>My son went last year and ended up being accepted. We don’t know of any other kid that went from his school!</p>
<p>I don’t know anyone else who was invited from my school either. It’s interesting that it’s based on PSAT/SAT scores because my PSAT scores were good, but not great (a couple of people at my school did better), and I have yet to receive my SAT scores back (it was the first time I took the test). It makes me feel good to know that your son was invited and then accepted, Thp2017! Thanks!</p>
<p>It’s basically like an info day, similar to Explore Carolina. You get to talk to a student panel, sit into info sessions, and pretty sure a tour of campus is included.</p>
<p>They invite those students that show high academic merit and would therefore be most interested in these kind of programs, but it’s open for all admitted students to attend.</p>
