<p>Hey yall, I currently go to a small selective liberal arts college that is extremely isolated, and I'm thinking about transferring next year to UNC. I think I heard that UNC doesn't look at state residency for transfers, is this true?

<p>The responses you have received previously may be misleading. Many universities, including UNC, will not accepts sophmore transfers. It is best to try for junior year because junior and senior years are looked upon more critically. I know that you will apply this year, but just keep this in mind as a future reason. Wish every deserving person could get into their dream school lol :)</p>
<p>Polobear, thanks for your response,but from the various threads that I have looked at, it seems as if a lot of transfers are admitted as sophomores. </p>
<p>I found this on the UNC admissions website: Approximately 59% were female and 41% were male. 15% enrolled as first-year students, 36% as sophomores, and 45% as juniors. 33% of the enrolling transfer class were non-traditional students older than age 22.</p>
<p>and yeah I know its a long shot that I’ll be admitted, but hopefully everything works out! :)</p>
