UNC class of 2019 EA thread

Less than a week, guys! We can do it!

Maybe we’ll get lucky and know on the 28th or something…cross your fingers

Does anyone know if they have ever released decisions on a day other than Thursday or Friday?

Not for the past few years. Someone posted the dates for the last four years (might be on page 3 or 4 of the comments) and they were all on Thursdays or Fridays.

Hey guys, this is probably just wishful thinking but i just checked the ConnectCarolina portal where you would check your admission decision and its currently “under maintenance” so hopefully that means they are currently uploading all the decisions right now and maybe we could find out early this week.

I was able to get on just fine… I wish it was under maintenance, though!

Well, at least we all know the decision is coming this week. I’m keeping myself busy with school and other things to make it go by fast!

just a little note: if you are oos and arent accepted don’t sweat it too much :slight_smile: They have an extremely small oos acceptance rate!

18% to be exact :neutral_face:

I know they’re selective and such, and there are other options, but there’s just something about that Carolina blue… :slight_smile:

All of you kids up North, who are about to be hit with the snowstorm of the decade, and who may be stuck at home for a couple of days with nothing to do but check and recheck your CarolinaConnect Status page–I feel for you! Seriously though, it’s all going to be okay. Everyone will end up where they are supposed to be, once the dust settles.

@LynnBe Welp I’m getting hit with like 25 inches of snow over the next two days… thanks for the sympathy!

I am an out of state applicant and also from the northeast so I will be getting buried in about two feet of snow so with nothing to do, and also a little procrastination from studying for my midterms this week, I calculated the OOS acceptance rate based on all the numbers the schools puts out and given everything, an OOS applicant has a 6.67% chance of being accepted EA as they accept approximately 1000 OOS from EA out of about 15000 applicants.

@LI516IT Your math is wrong. As noted above, the overall acceptance rate last year for OOS was 18%. I’m not sure if the EA acceptance rate is broken out separately. And don’t forget that some EA applicants will be deferred and accepted later.

Is it possible they release decisions earlier than Thursday?

My daughter heard from a friend who is a student at UNC that Thursday is supposedly the day. No, I’m not a troll; no, I’m not certain. Just want share info in case it’s helpful. Do with it what you will! :slight_smile:

That starred out word was t-r-o-l-l

Just till the end of the week. That’s only a few more days! I hope they release on Thursday.

Confused? In the past did they send them email?
