<p>Let’s see…2009: 3,215 applied. 1,253 accepted. 892 enrolled. Roughly 1/3 of the ~900 enrolled are OOS. So if you apply that to the amount applied, I’d guess little over 1,000 OOS applicants.</p>
<p>After that NY Time article about their gender inbalance, they should be looking to bring in more males, haha. :)</p>
<p>Here’s what you have to remember Mastemeh. the ~80% mark of instate applied to all applying for the semester (transfers are included)…If it were not, the 80% mark would be fluttered, and would not abide by the state’s regulation, most likely resulting in a loss of funding + any other consequence I don’t know about . Let’s saying, of the people accepted for first year, the ratio is 70%-30% weighing in favor of IS. Well, then to even this amount out, transfer acceptance would have to fit into the factor.</p>
<p>While, again, I will agree it is EASIER to get into as a transfer, as statistics show, it still does matter and once the “cap” is made for OOS, no more can be accepted past the percentage without effecting the law stated above.</p>
<p>It doesn’t work like that. They HAVE to accept 82% IN-STATE, FIRST-YEAR students in order to keep their funding. This is because the state funding has no say with transfer applications and vice-versa. This is also why they can’t just accept a larger portion of transfer students, because they aren’t getting state funding to accept these students in the first place.</p>
<p>“The UNC System Board of Governors sets a quota - currently 18 percent - for the number of out-of-state students admitted to the freshman class each year”</p>

<p>That’s incorrect. The acceptance is not subjective to only first-year. And I really don’t want to argue on what should be a happy board with fellow classmates (hopefully). Please provide a link if you want to talk further but I’d really like to keep it to “hey, I got in!”</p>
<p>guys… lets stop it. we cannot change anything at this moment alright? Lets just wait and see the decisions in 3 days.</p>
<p>Good luck everybody!</p>
<p>Good luck! Anyone look up apartments yet? I really don’t want to dorm again moving to a new college.</p>
<p>me either… but I guess dorm makes it easier to make friends there?</p>
<p>I’m not worried on that front…I’d rather do random rooming in an apartment to be honest. Having your own bathroom is a HUGE plus haha</p>
<p>I’m looking for a roommate and am definitely willing to live in the Odum Village apartments. Furnished, private bedroom and bathroom. I think that’s cool. ~$5,200/year seems like a pretty decent cost for all of that, too.</p>
<p>Single-room is like a grand more. Zzzz.</p>
<p>how are you going to find a roommate? i dont want to live in the dorms again either but i just figured it would be easier</p>
<p>How far is it from the campus?</p>
<p>I would be interested in rooming depending on factors :P. They do have rooming options in many of the apartments also…so they set you up with people that are like you.</p>
<p>If you’re pre-med also…That’s a deciding factor haha</p>
<p>I am Pre-Med, actually. Biology major with Asian Study minor. o.o</p>
<p>EDIT: Odum Village is north of the high-rises in South Campus, but still considered to be in South Campus. Not too far. A good spot, actually.</p>
<p>I’ve put up a short thread up on here and on the UNC 2014 FB group (eh, why not) looking for roommates. Worse comes to worse, I’ll just use their roommate finder or room with a friend in another dorm.</p>
<p>Also a biology major in pre-med with finance minor (Don’t ask…).</p>
<p>Hah, my cousin would say you’re the smartest person here. I think he wants me to do a business-type minor because he’s got his Masters in Accounting…but I have my own life to live, heh. </p>
<p>No but really, can’t go wrong with a business minor. It’s always helpful to know that kind of stuff. Asian Studies, really? Lol.</p>
<p>Hey, it shows diversity and interest for med schools. Beats business minor haha</p>
<p>More like a back-up if I don’t get into Med. School…:D. </p>
<p>“Bye family, I’m offer to learn traditional Chinese medicine!” </p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Asian Studies? I am from China… lol</p>
<p>Humm, Chinese is the language I’ve decided to learn (already in Chinese 1B). Though I’ll probably go to Korea to study abroad. Maybe China after I graduate. It’s all speculation right now, though.</p>
<p>hmm. I am econ major with probably accounting minor. Hope i could see all you guys next semester in chapel hill!!!</p>
