So we submitted his housing application but there wasn’t anything on there about selecting a dorm. Does that happen later?
Last year they didn’t get a dorm choice, just a roommate choice. Dorms were assigned randomly.
NC state assigns the dorm. Students are not able to select a particular dorm.
For any parents with questions about dorms, housing, etc. I highly recommend the NC State Class of 2026 FB group for parents. A wealth of information there! Use the search profile feature and you can find an answer to almost anything!

Is the group hidden? It is not coming up in any searches.
Its just an NC State Parents Group-- not unique to class of 2026. Sorry. I don’t know if I can post a link but I’ll try: NC State University Parent Group | Facebook
Found it - thank you!
Does anyone know the OOS acceptance rate for NC State? I can’t seem to find it!

For Fall 2022, I haven’t seen anything. For Fall 2021, I don’t think that exact stat was published but you can get an idea based on what has been reported on the NCSU website:
Total Fall 2021 applications - 32,907
Total Fall 2021 OOS applications - 12,353 (37.5% of total)
Total Fall 2021 students attending - 4,983
Total Fall 2021 OOS attending - 683 (13.7% of total)
Assuming a yield of 30% based on general CDS yields, OOS offers were made to about 2,300 applicants, 18.6% acceptance rate.
In a different part of their website, they also said they had 5,011 incoming freshmen for Fall 2021 and 15.6% were from OOS (782). That 100-student difference would mean a 21% acceptance rate.

I subscribe to US News College Ranking and it is usually pretty accurate. For OOS only, this is what it said. It actually breaks it down by female/male if you want it. Just let me know.
Total OOS Undergraduate Apps: 12,532
Total OOS Accepted 4,706 (37.6%)
Total that enroll from the 4,706 accepted = 534
That means only 11.3% of OOS students accept their offer and attend. That is so incredibly low.

last year data btw. This year wouldn’t be out yet because they haven’t with RD.
I wonder what the Wake county stats compared to the OOS stats… 
…compares to…
Thank you so much!
I wonder if they did not update USNCR with final data. NCSU website lists OOS enrolled for Fall 2021 at 782. That would be OOS yield at 17%. About in line with what they are permitted to enroll per state guidelines.

I would like to know how many open seats are available for Wake County students, and what is the stats for the average student admitted. And then break it even further by major.
You and me both, RE Wake County! My daughter was deferred and she was solidly in the green in SCOIR with the school marked as “choice” She was not engineering, applied to the business undecided–4.3 GPA, lots of APs (9) and a 32 ACT.

suspecting the Wake student…
