Question - if my daughter was waitlisted for one major and now wants to change her major or add another possibility can she do this on the waitlist?

Hi, I actually have a group chat with some other spain kids on instagram. Feel free to message me if she’d like to join!
So many kids intend to study abroad but never do. I know that is the case for my oldest who’s a junior in college elsewhere. This gives them the opportunity to jump right in and do it. I don’t think my daughter knew what to think of the offer when she first saw her acceptance letter. But once it sunk in, she was both shocked and elated! She’s spent every summer away since 7th grade for ballet and loves to travel so she’s excited at the prospect.

I’m sure she would but can’t figure out how to direct message on this forum. I think maybe I haven’t posted enough yet?

If she chooses CGL, she will love Spain! We use to live in southern Spain. If she dances she will love Feria season!

We are from the Northeast. About this time last year, my D got the good news from UNC and didn’t really think she would attend. It wasn’t on her radar of serious contenders.
Well, a year later she is a thriving first year at UNC and absolutely loves it. It’s a terrific school. Congrats to all those who were admitted.

D waitlisted from EA round. Is there a way to submit a Letter of Interest with an updated on her grades and activities? We looked around and didn’t see anything in the application portal.

Congrats! And don’t sweat the Honors part. It’s not as big a differentiator at Carolina as it is at some other schools.

Yep, it was listed under “special opportunities”, the same place where the honors and other notifications have been. Got it as soon as I got my acceptance.
