I think they mean that they would be going to school with a lot of the same people they knew in high school, summer camp, etc.

That’s how my D feels about University of Wisconsin. The majority of the class goes there. Can’t blame them. They want to fly.

I also have one at both and will say they both LOVE their experiences. They both work very hard but also have a ton of fun - a work hard/play hard mentality. We can’t say enough about UGA and what an incredible experience it has been for our student and us as parents, too. We feel the same about UNC. They are very similar schools.

My son was accepted and attended UNC but then transferred to UGA. Then UNC shut down the school bc of Covid which effectively stopped him from assimilating into the campus and meeting new friends which was crucial not being from NC. He transferred to UGA. He is tremendously happy in Athens now, in the Honors College, and enjoys everything about it. I think the schools are very similar.

Last year our son found out Thursday, Jan 27 (so today). I am not sure how he knew to check, whether it was an email or social media blast.
I have an OOS student who was deferred from UGA (with very high stats) who is also waiting to hear from UNC. To say we are stressed in the household is an understatement.

I think UGA deferred (or rejected) nearly 80% of OOS students. Because of the initial EA decision being in Nov, they deferred a lot of in state and oos applicants. Something will work out! We are oos anxiously awaiting UNC decision.

Are decisions tonight? Do we think they would put NC State and Unc out on the same day?
Hard to believe they would release on the same day
Has anyone tried to get into onyen? I know a few people tried to get in before their decisions last year.
I did- mine says this user isn’t eligible for an onyen. My friend also has the same message. In State

I don’t think today is the day for UNC or NCSU. Just checked Twitter. Not a beep. Agony continues!!

It’s the UNC Chapel Hill’s student portal. You get a PID number once you apply, and you can use that to create a UNC email account, and have access to all their stuff. You can try and access it by searching UNC PID, and then get that number and type in “create an onyen.”

Called admissions- they said that decisions could come out from tomorrow up until the next 5 days. NC State said by the end of this week.

I feel like they will probably just come out tomorrow

Thank you. I don’t see a PID or instructions to create an Onyen. We received an email in early November that said the application checklist is complete. D checked her status just now at Login, which is the application portal I assume, and there’s no application ID or any other ID listed on that portal.
