UNC Chapel Hill Fall transfer 2021

Did anyone write like “why unc” either in their essays or in the additional information section?

Doesn’t look like they’re coming out today :frowning:

yep. realistically it seems like Wednesday is the earliest it will come out although earlier would be nice

I only used one sentence in each essays to close it out with why I wanted UNC (relating to the essays) and not my current institution.

I didn’t, because I thought their supplements were really more of a place to talk about yourself so I spoke about the issue (education inequity) I’m most passionate about which has a lot to do with the major I chose, and my family background. I have no clue whether that’s the right approach but fingers crossed lol.

Does anyone know the average stats for a transfer?

I literally quoted their mission statement in one of my essays, saying if they are as open to different opinions on campus as they say they are, then I’d be happy to represent the minority opinion (I’m a conservative and they’re a very liberal school). Hopes aren’t too high with the currently political climate, but who knows.

i literally talked about the same thing… i was hoping that it would set me apart and figured that if they rejected me because of that then i probably shouldn’t be there

I chose the diversity essay and the community essay. In the diversity one I wrote about being jewish and facing antisemitism from a young age and how I want to bring Judaism’s values of kindness, acceptance, and community service to UNC/wherever I go. In the community one I wrote about an old dormant building that is right between my high school and middle school that is known as our community center but is never used anymore. I wrote about how I would reinvent it and make it a true community center. I was proud of my essays but i didn’t necessarily show demonstrated interest in UNC because they claim that they don’t care about it.

GUYS!!! Are you guys also getting the 503 error when trying to login to your portal?

It keeps saying “portal is inactive”. Maybe today is the day???

I’m getting that too!

I’m so scared!! I honestly didn’t think today was gonna be the day!

Could it just be a technical glitch?

mine doesn’t have it :confused:

mine doesn’t have that either

mine also is working fine, maybe they are in the process of updating them all.
