Early Action!

<p>Decisions will be next Friday. I think</p>

<p>I actually think it will be Tuesday or Wednesday. I really don’t see them dragging this out another week.</p>

<p>Yeah Michigan was dead set it was by the 24th and told people who called that day that it was “by the 24th” when we all heard on the 18th</p>

<p>Exactly. For confidentiality and bandwidth purposes, they have to keep the date private. Otherwise they’re at risk of their website crashing due to traffic and way too many people calling. They have to get everything ready so they can accept phone calls, and leaking the decision date can compromise that.</p>

<p>I’ll keep checking until 6.</p>

<p>My daughter(OOS) was deferred to UVA. Everyone tells me that means she will be deferred or rejected to UNC, as UNC takes a much lower percentage of OOS students. Did anyone hear this?</p>

<p>what about tomorrow?</p>

<p>@barelith UNC is required by state law to take no more than 18% OOS.</p>

<p>@blabla5 Admissions office is closed thru Monday.</p>

<p>@barelith At least at my school, UVA is much tougher to get into than UNC. My school is predominantly Hispanic which possibly skews the stats for each school (UNC might need more Hispanics from the region), but thought I’d let you know anyway.</p>

<p>My school is OOS for both (Florida)</p>

<p>So… 10 minutes possibly??</p>

<p>They should reject all those who call asking “is it today?”</p>

<p>Only partially kidding</p>

<p>We are in NC (about 1 1/2 hrs from Chapel Hill) and nothing in the mail. DS is headed out of town and was hoping to know something today. This is really disappointing and agonizing!</p>

<p>I don’t know what UNC is doing. The early application’s deadline was two weeks earlier than most top school, yet the decisions aren’t out yet (more than a month later than most school). I’m glad I got in somewhere instead of biting nails waiting for UNC.</p>

<p>So, is it expected that UNC will send some kind of email like “check your user ID and password” before the decisions, or do the decisions just suddenly pop up on the MyCarolina portal?</p>

<p>I agree. Thank goodness DS has several acceptances already so there is less nail biting, but he says Chapel Hill is still his first choice. This is such a helpless feeling. I suppose Chapel Hill wants all the applicants to learn a lesson in patience…ugh!</p>

<p>Well, today’s not happening. I guess I’ll be checking the mail next week. It’ll be kind of annoying if we don’t hear anything until next Friday.</p>

<p>Oh well :/</p>

<p>whatever we’ll all hear back eventually anyway</p>

<p>Has anyone’s mycarolina page been changed? Mine still states “no decision yet” but I know have a different home page - hoping that means something positive?>>></p>

<p>How has your homepage changed?</p>
