NC State 2023 Admission thread

Tomorrow is a holiday, so unlikely too… the suspense is terrible

I just wanted to mention for those anxious design applicants that yes, the College of Design has a required early application deadline— but accepts some applicants in December, then invites the majority of design applicants to portfolio interviews (to pick your brain 1-on-1) in January — who then don’t really find out until the end of February—after which many other accepted students are already picking their roommates and meal plans. It is very stressful for the design applicants as well.

[Also sidebar whisper: the design students consider being called “arts folk” rather insulting as they are highly trained designers.Trust me.]

Difference in “art folks” and “highly trained designers”…the color of hair and number of piercings…Trust me the applicants are “highly trained designers”.

PREDICTION: NC St EA gets released this Friday, January 25 after 5pm!

If that were the case it would be the first time by my knowledge that NCState released their EA decisions before UNC, which I believe will be on Thursday

Why Thursday? Kinda weirdly specific

It has been since 2015 last Thursday of January… no idea why, but I just followed their twitter… about 2 days prior they tweet the reminders what does what decision mean and what to do next, then 2 days later the decision comes out… will be interesting to see if same pattern continues into this year.

This is probably a stupid question, but do they always release the decisions after 5:00?

As far as I can tell

As far as I can tell

Does anyone know if the Nutrition Science major is competitive? I applied EA and wanted to know if it is competitive compared to other majors like biology.

Good luck to all of you! My daughter found out last year on Monday January 22nd, right at 4:30pm… well It was on her portal, but keep in mind, every year, right when they release admits the portal gets blitzed and it took her until 7:45pm to actually see her letter.

Hang in there, this is an exciting moment:)

@Momof2022 thank you for sharing that, now I will not panic when it does not let me in the portal for a while

So are decisions coming out today?

@blazinamazin2023 I sure wish they would, however who knows when they will bless us with news

All speculation at this point. Some experienced people on this thread say they came out this time last year, and admissions told us directly that ALL EA will come out on the 30th. I suspect admissions will try to get them out as soon as possible between now and the deadline.

Do they send an email or are you expected to just check the portal?

@mcr976 Park semifinalist here, I was sent an email when my decision came out. However, I just happened to open my portal randomly ~3 hours before I received my email and the acceptance letter was already there.

@stuckinthefuture What day was that?

They eventually send an email, but we checked on the portal as the emai comes much later.
