<p>I am OOS (Minnesota) and still have not received a letter or packet about my acceptance... is this true for anyone else? Also.. someone said there is a second batch of excel@carolina notifications coming out in mid february is there any truth to that??</p>
<p>I live in Maryland and only got my letter today, and Minnesota is muuuuch farther away so I wouldn’t worry until like late next week. And about excel, I emailed the honors carolina people and this is what they said: “Invitations to Honors Carolina are issued in two rounds. While you did not receive an invitation during our first round, it is possible that you will receive an invitation when the second round of letters goes out in mid-February. However, if you do not receive in invitation at that time either, please know that you can still enroll in honors courses (they are opened to all first-semester students on a space available basis with about 20% of the enrollments going to students not yet in the program). You can also apply to join Honors Carolina in January of your first year. We will take another 75 or so students at that point, judging applicants on the difficulty of their schedule, their GPA, a letter of recommendation from a faculty member, and their own essay explaining their interest in joining.”</p>
<p>yeap, same here in FL. Excel@Carolina came in the mail, but not official packet in the mail yet</p>
<p>Yea - OOS …and my S can get into connect carolina and it looks like he’s a student and already Accepted. Ready to enroll- etc. But no word on the site about his acceptance, or letter. He was invited to some weekend - but not the scholarship weekend unfortunately. </p>
<p>8 days later and no official acceptance letter in the mail!!! We are in FL, lol is not like we are in Sochi:)</p>
<p>I live 45 miles from chapel hill and just got mine yesterday </p>
<p>We are in Florida too! What is Connect Carolina? Does anyone know what scores, GPA, EC’s, etc., that they’re looking for in order to qualify for the Honors program?</p>
<p>ConnectCarolina is the student portal that students use to enroll, etc. </p>
<p>Haven’t received the package yet. OOS.</p>
<p>This is getting annoying. Still nothing in the mail (OOS)</p>
<p>^^:( Yes, it has to be annoying. Probably they mailed by last names and probably they have problems with this crazy winter!!! Did you call admissions?</p>
<p>My son hadn’t gotten a packet either so I called Admissions. They
sent out a new one a couple of days ago and we just got it today (upstate NY). </p>
<p>Two weeks since decisions. No packet here in Chicago. </p>
<p>Finally received packet today - OOS. He will be declining - so will open up one spot on wait list!</p>
<p>Finally got the package a moment ago. Surprisingly, the letter was dated Jan. 27.</p>
