<p>you already got it!!!</p>

<p>Did you use the early admission option or did you apply reg?</p>

<p>If reg, around when did you apply? Was it before Dec.?</p>

<p>Im soo nervous about my application. I feel I've made like 50 mistakes in the application. I just need to know my decision, positive or negative, to get this burden off my chest... haha.</p>

<p>I wish you well at UNC though!</p>

<p>i applied early action a few weeks before the deadline, but a couple of my friends from highschool applied about 2 min before the deadline and they have a decision too.</p>

<p>oh, okay,</p>

<p>if you applied early, with your friends, it would only make sense that you have already gotten your letter.</p>

<p>I thought reg. letters were already being posted. Actually, I applied reg. and finished my app four hours before the deadline. Im just hoping they review the apps by alphabetical order or something so that my app wont be one of the last ones reviewed.</p>
