Realistically..

<p>What do you think my chances of getting in are? I have been deferred with a 1270 SAT, 27 ACT, top 10 percent at my high school, captained three varsity teams, tons of community service hours, and midyear grades of, 98 AP ENglish, 95 AP Calc, 97 Advanced Weightlifing and 99 in Honors online Earth Science. I'm in state.</p>

<p>Given the stats of those who were deferred, I'd say it's really close</p>

<p>it would be nice if someone that knows a bit about how deferred are actually evaluated would comment on it. is it mixed in with rd or is it only reevaluated at the end of the rd process. the deferred letter can be read to say that after the rd are decided they look at the deferred and if that is the case, i will advise all i know to apply rd for future years. it seems to me that applying rd might be a bit more "fair." just how i feel.</p>

<p>Defered students are accepted based on the reg application quality pool.(if reg app's are way better than their then they get rejected, if they are good compared to reg app pool..then they have a better chance.)Anybody a freshmen at UNC, who was deferred and then got accepted?
Tell us what your stats were..please.</p>

No offense, but is that just speculation, or do you have a valid source?</p>

<p>valid source is the defereal letter....
i was going to post it...but then i realised that they took it off the site abt 15 minutes ago.
you know what...imma scan my paper letter which they send me.</p>

<p>im gonna look for it now..</p>

<p>any body still has the letter?..pls scan the body of the letter and post it on here..i can't find mine.</p>

<p>haha, vickpick, I love how you're having like your own little convo, to yourself. Mine isn't up either though, in case you were wondering ;) l</p>

<p>:D...learnmestuff ..if u have ur paper letter which they sent to us..
can u scan it and post the body part of the letter on the site?...or just type up what specificly means deferred.</p>

<p>heritage baller:
your course load seems really easy.
5 classes and only 2 AP's.
This may hurt your chances.</p>

<p>I mean 4 classes???</p>

<p>hey..i wish i could do online courses..
and yea....online courses don't carry as much weight in UNC's view.
I mean..UNC admissions committee is a very intelligent group of people.
Everyone knows how easy online courses are.</p>

<p>the letter says:</p>

<p>"we have concluded that we must defer final decission on your application until we have received your myg and read the apps of our second-deadline candidates. </p>

<p>further down:</p>

<p>In making our final decision, we will consider everything you have already submitted to us, the additional info you will submit to us, and the overall strength of our applicant pool."</p>

<p>Wow...I don't think we ever really read it that closely and now feel a little sick.</p>

<p>haha...i read the letter like 50 times...i was in denial that i got deferred.(although i didn't have many reasons)...thats y i remember that that talked abt applicant pool.</p>

<p>2 AP Classes yes, but that is all my school offered my first semester.</p>
