<p>I applied EA to UN Chapel Hill to hopefully receive a Pogue Scholarship. I've found stats for past in-state recipients, but as an OOS I'd like to know how competitive of an applicant I am. Additionally, how do I fare with the Robertson Scholars program for both Duke and UNC as well as the Jefferson Scholars program at UVA?
All input is appreciated!</p>
