Can any current UNC students provide some insight into the Robertson process? When should we hear back if we made it past the first round? How many rounds are there? Is it more beneficial if you applied to UNC EA and were accepted? Thank you for any and all insight.
I’d also love to hear from any of you who also applied!
Hi! Current Robertson at UNC. I know how stressful the process can be! Last year, I wasn’t notified of my Semi-finalist status until February 20th. You then Skype/phone interview. If you make it to Finalist weekend, it’s the end of March! In regard to the EA question, the Robertson website says “You may apply either Early Decision or Regular Decision to Duke, or Early Action or Regular Decision to UNC-Chapel Hill. As long as you apply for first-year undergraduate admission to one or both of these universities, you are eligible to apply for the Robertson.” I don’t believe there is any advantage for EA. Best of luck to everyone!
Hi! I’m also eagerly awaiting the notification. I think it will come out sometime this week… hopefully in the next 3-4 days.
What’s the acceptance rate again? I heard it’s something like .125% of all applicants to UNC & Duke and 2% of people who filled out the application. Is that correct?
