<p>this is not for me but i have a very good friend who loves UNC, both of her parents graduated from UNC
will this help her, as an OOS student? i don't have her exact stats, but she is a good student with all As and decent test scores</p>
<p>yeah, it will help. Not as much as in the past, but it definitely gives you a better chance.</p>

<p>For what it's worth, this relates to the 2005 incoming freshman class</p>
