Anyone who applied to NC State CALS heard anything other than the thank you for applying letters?

My daughter applied to CALS and we’ve heard nothing other than those 2 letters about the CALS programs.

Same for my son. Hoping to hear soon!

I get her sat is low, but her ecs are exactly on target for her goal to be a veterinarian. It’s too late for a new sat. I’m worried since she was deferred. She also applied to va tech and her reach, which is Cornell.

Does anyone know about applying to the ag institute?

Congrats mamaruth! I have to take some turfgrass classes and soil science classes for my major! Maybe we’ll have classes together! My major is Horticultural Sciences with a concentration on Landscape Design!
