UNC Chapel Hill EA Applicants 2018

<p>Hey everyone! For those of you applying to UNC EA for the class of 2018 use this thread to post your stats, ask for chances, talk about admissions and post results. Apps are due on Teusday so I'm really pumped! :)</p>

<p>Are letter of recs also due on Oct 15? My school is having problem with Naviance and common application</p>

<p>FYI. You can mail/overnight your recs too. Maybe your school will do this for you. We sent ours snail mail.</p>

There are a couple other things I could write about, but the Common App limits me to 10 activities, and these are probably my stronger activities.</p>

<p>My essay will not be the best essay. I’m a fairly good writer, but I’m by no means the best. </p>

<p>Letters of recommendation will speak very highly of me.</p>

<p>Thank you!!</p>

<p>Also, if anyone wants to swap writing supplements, PM me!!!</p>

<p>I’m glad this thread exists!</p>

<p>Going to wait a little longer then revert to snail mail. It just takes a long time for anything mailed to get put with online stuff. Hopefully they will figure it out this week and my teachers can send my letters of rec via Naviance</p>

<p>As long as your recommender includes your full name and date of birth, they will be able to match it with your online stuff. One of my recommenders is mailing hers in because it’s so much easier than dealing with the Common App.</p>

<p>Is my SAT low for an OOS student? I could retake the SAT on Nov 2, and UNC would consider it for EA.</p>

<p>@cbaterseh I think you’ll be fine. I’m applying with a 2190 - 690 R 720 M 780 W…so I think you’ll be fine. And my one of my teachers didnt upload her letter to the common app through naviance yet! gah look like im applying tomorrow then :/</p>

<p>How is everyone’s short answer questions??</p>

<p>Mine are ok…but I LOVE my supplement lol. What did you guys put for super power? I feel like the answers to this question cant help but be trite or cliche</p>

<p>Okay, so for the super power, I thought about putting the ability to sleep and study at the same time… I just didn’t want to be cliche, you know? </p>

<p>Send me your supplement!! I wanna read it :)</p>

<p>lol true that…send me yours first lol im cynical</p>

<p>Haha, okie dokie! Do you think it’s a good super power?</p>

<p>It’s pretty funny lol. I need to think of a more creative one.</p>

<p>Yay! It required more time than I thought it would. Don’t even ask what my gadget is LOL.</p>

<p>LMAO let me know in your PM haha</p>

<p>Haha, I will!</p>
