Depends on what you’re studying. UNC has a top 20 business program, but I think Elon is much stronger for journalism. UNC has almost 4x the number of students that Elon has, so that’s a big consideration for some people. Also cost - if you live in N.C., UNC is a bargain compared to Elon.
If your child plans to be a business major, something to consider with UNC is there is no guarantee they will get in to the business school. They have to apply sophomore year and it is very competitive

Cool! Did they email? or was it in the portal?
Same here - just no details yet.
Ours was in portal
No email yet, but there was an additional tab in her portal.
Did anyone for leadership get an interview time? It appeared in her portal and then disappeared?
Our was too but it doesn’t say which of the 2 fellows programs or whether its the 3+1. Also, our says its a virtual interview. Did they do away with fellows weekend?

I have a new tab in my portal but there is no information on it
Did your child’s portal just have a blank tab for an interview? Is it still there? Our daughter had an interview tab and then it disappeared!
I have a new tab called " Fellows, Scholars and Special Programs" but nothing in it
Same. A while ago there was information in there about an interview (no specifics) and then it disappeared. Which program are you waiting for?
My daughter had to refresh several times before the information populated.
Business fellows
Has anyone gotten interviews for leadership? Is anyone else having the glitches we are having?
We applied to Honors and Business Fellows as well as the 3+1 accelerated business program, Here is what is in our tab:
Fellows, Scholars and Special Programs
Congratulations on being invited to interview for Elon’s distinctive scholarship and pathways programs! This year, we received over 2600 applications for approximately 275 seats across 10 programs. As a candidate, you are required to complete a 20-minute virtual interview. We also strongly encourage you to attend our Virtual Experiences for Fellows, Scholars and Special Programs during the week leading up to your assigned interview date.
Virtual Experiences
During the virtual sessions you will meet current students and Elon faculty associated with each program. Prepare to speak about yourself and your interests in the programs.
Take advantage of the sessions being offered by highlighting your interests, experiences, and achievements. This is your opportunity to ask questions and learn how being a Fellow can impact your college experience.
Virtual Interviews
The interview lasts approximately 20 minutes. Students who are interviewing for two or more programs will only have one interview
Then his name id number and an RSVP selection.

Anyone hear about leadership?
Congratulations! My daughter got an interview for the communications fellowship and scheduled an interview, but now the tab has completely disappeared. Definitely glitching.
Does anyone know how many applicants get interviews?
