<p>"Last year, we waitlisted 2,328 students. 1,420 accepted a place on the waitlist, and 453 were admitted." (From the Admissions Blog)</p>
<p>That's about 32% of applicants being accepted. So it's not a death sentences like I had perceived.</p>
<p>There's still hope out there.</p>
<p>(This might have been already brought up, and, if so, I apologize.)</p>
<p>I’m wondering if it might be a good idea to have my son send his grades for this quarter ( he is on semesters) (all A’s…2AP’s 1 Honors, 1 regular class) , as UNC considers the waitlist. I know they won’t go to the waitlist until after May 1, but his final grades won’t be in until June 19th, which might be too late if they are to consider his senior year grades.</p>
<p>DO you think this might help him move up on the wait list?
Thanks…</p>

<p>It sure can’t hurt. If his school college counselors will do so, ask them if they would make a call on his behalf letting admissions know that if he is admitted he will attend, if that is the case of course. Yield is still very important and this year I don’t think any school has a real clear picture of what their yields will be like.</p>
<p>Thanks, eadad! I don’t know if his gc will call, but I will ask!</p>
<p>Has anyone heard back yet from the wait list?</p>
<p>on my homepage, the link to my waitlist is gone… so does that mean I’m fully denied now?</p>
<p>I have no link either - can still check application status which just says it was submitted and is complete - anyone else?</p>
<p>Last year, they started calling kids soon after the May 1 deadline. I believe my daughter got her phone call on May 4, but didn’t reach the admissions person until May 6. They kept trading phone calls, and he would never leave a specific message. It was frustrating for her, but we suspected it was good news. I think you all will start hearing really soon.</p>
<p>same for me, the waitlist letter link is now gone completely.</p>
<p>either we’re doomed, or it’s a good sign.</p>
<p>what are your stats so we can see if we’re completely out…</p>
<p>ive got 3.85 GPA, 4.56 Weighted, Full IB Diploma, 27 ACT</p>
<p>ok so my link was gone a few days ago and I checked today and it is back up…anyone know what this means?</p>
<p>mine is back too</p>
<p>yep mine is back up too…</p>
<p>maybe they’re considering us…?</p>
<p>mine is back as well.</p>
<p>do you know if theyre admitting people off the waitlist this year?</p>
<p>i don’t know… but the waiting is killing me! (my letter was removed and then replaced as well)</p>
<p>Yes it is!!! I love UNC so much… if I don’t get in I’ll be devastated. Spending my first year in agony trying to transfer :(</p>
<p>i know. are you instate? i am. i was deferred EA so i feel like i have been waiting forever…</p>
