I applied to UNC Chapel Hill EA and they say that our decisions will be released by end of January but I was wondering if they could get released earlier in the month? Anyone got theirs yet?
I heard they will be released between the 25th and the 31st of January but no sooner.
I heard the same ^. If it were a letter by mail, then we could expect them to come at varying times but they do an online portal so everyone will be able to view theirs at the same time. So we just have to wait. Last year they weren’t very good with notifying people of the exact time until like very soon before like maybe a day before it was open, so I’d definitely keep a lookout. And it’ll probably crash because I’m pretty sure UNC has like one of the highest number of applications lol
We haven’t heard anything yet either. Patiently waiting…
Apparently, the last Friday in January, after 4 PM. That’s what we’ve been told, so the applicants have a couple of days to cool off, or the office could get flooded with calls and such!
@Essel did you call the admissions office? I remember last year it came out either on the last thursday or friday of jan too
@clemson22 - No. Kids of family friends who worked in the admissions office while they were there told us that. Bottom line, no amount of calling (or stressing) is going to change anything!!
Does anyone elses connect carolina say under the todo list “financial aid” ?
Did you fill out FASFA?
6 years ago, my son received his acceptance letter January 19th. But they were still mailing letters back then.
@breakfeastclub1234567890 - Financial Aid office said todo list only appears for accepted students.
Good luck.
@breakfeastclub1234567890 it probably means that you indicated that you were going to submit financial aid and they did not receive it and are waiting for your FAFSA/CSS
@iamconfusionlol and @brison8 i sent my fafsa and css last year in October.
Fordham required supplemental items for the CSS/Profile. When I finished them I contacted the other Profile colleges to see if I needed to do anything else for them. UNC person said if I owed them anything it would appear in a financial todo list but only after acceptance. No point in getting flooded with requests from kids not attending. This person might be clueless - I’m just reporting what I was told.
Hello all!
I am a first-year at UNC and I can confirm that it has been commonplace for admissions decisions to be released on the last Thursday or Friday of January. Last year, they were released on Friday the 27th. Since it is released via portal, there will probably be connection issues for some. To avoid this, make sure you are one of the first ones to login and check your decision! They are almost always released around 4PM, for what it’s worth.
Good luck to all of you!

Has anyone heard anything???
Nope. Nothing yet. The portal is as clean as it was 4 months ago.
@0liVia22 Should be coming out this Friday. Good luck!
Thank you!!
