<p>Hey! I've been really interested in talking to other NC'ers on here, though I haven't really got a chance.</p>

<p>I'm interested in finding out where other people from NC and especially other people from your high schools are going to college.</p>

<p>I'd just like to see what's happening college-wise with people from my home state. I'll start.</p>

<p>Place: Asheville</p>

<p>Number of UNC acceptees I personally know: 7ish
Number of UNC rejectees I personally know: 1
Number of UNC deferrals I personally know: 2
Stanford: 1 accepted
Yale: 1 deferred
Harvard: 1 deferred</p>

2

<p>Place: Rockingham, Richmond County
Number of UNC acceptees: 8
Number of rejections: 2
Number of deferrals: 3</p>

3

<p>Place: Charlotte
UNC Acceptees: um, about 15?
UNC Deferrals: 4
UNC Rejections: 1</p>

<p>Duke: 1 accepted
Yale: 1 deferred</p>

<p>These are IB seniors. About 20 applied to UNC EA, 5-10 RD.</p>

<p>Charlotte Person: I'm curious: Do the Charlotte schools (Providence, North Meck, especially Myers Park) send like 30+ kids to UNC? What about Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, and other highly competitive schools? Do you know if anyone from Charlotte was accepted there?</p>

<p>I was just curious. Charlotte has such a good reputation.</p>

<p>jellybean24- I go to Independence, so I don't know a lot about the other schools besides a little bit about Myers Park. I do know that Myers Park usually has about 3-5 or so HYP admits. About 5 get admitted to Duke/Stanford as well, I think. Quite a few end up at UNC. Here's the link for where last year's IB students ended up: <a href="http://www.myersparkibmatters.com/Graduates.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.myersparkibmatters.com/Graduates.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>As for the other schools, I'm not sure...There's a person that goes to North Meck that got deferred from Yale with great stats, though. There's a few others from North Meck applying to Penn, Columbia, etc.</p>

<p>wake county, i know like 3 deferrals and probably upwards of 70 acceptees at my school. most years at least 50 people from my school end up at UNC.</p>

8

<p>i'm from wake county as well (cary). i'm sure a ton of people at my school are going to unc. it kind of sucks, actually. i don't want to go to college and be with the same exact people i was with in high school. since there're so many people from north carolina there, it seems like everyone's just gonna hang out in their old high school cliques :/</p>

9

<p>North Meck sends tons and tons of students to UNC every year - definitely more htan 30</p>

10

<p>I heard from somewhere that our school has one of the highest number of acceptees even though our high school isnt even that big (1300 students; 290 senior class) we had 36 acceptees for just early admissions.</p>

<p>NCSSM! I have several friends who go there. Yeah, not surprising there are a lot of MIT students ... amazing rate for Yale though. I didn't think they actually admitted people.</p>
