this is terrifying. thurs at 4 doesn’t sound too awful, I hope that’s the truth
I hadn’t seen anyone ask or post the question as to what the decisions “could” be. This is from the UNC website:
When students apply Early Action, they’ll receive one of three decisions: admit, deny or defer. If they’re deferred, we’ll ask them to submit their mid-year grades when they’re available, and we’ll use those grades, along with their original application materials, to re-evaluate them with our Regular Decision pool. If they’re denied Early Action, they cannot reapply for our Regular Decision deadline.
Good luck everyone…
I’m actually so nervous guys. I really hope everyone on this thread gets in! You guys have been pretty fun to obsess over UNC with.
@anon145 I actually have no idea. I feel like structurally and outwardly the schools are similar, but I also have different intended majors for each school so that whichever one I go to, I will pursue an area that I’m secure in knowing that they will equip me beyond well. I would probably consider their financial aid packages and then also determine which school am I most unfamiliar with, like environment. I’m looking for a school that challenges my adaptability, so I’ll probably do a campus visit or two. How about you?
I really can’t wait this long… It’s gonna kill me…
I find it funny how we can wait a few months no problem but as soon as decisions week hits we all feel like we can’t wait any longer haha
We had to spend two months watching everybody else hear back. It’s about damn time we get some news, especially because they made us apply earlier than anybody else.
does everyone have new tabs to click on under admissions in your UNC portal?
@P0pcorn99 what new tabs do you have?
in connect carolina student center where you go to find your status, under academics there is a tab labeled other academics when you click on it, it has lots of options like drop ,add a class, class schedule, apply for graduation etc, about 10 options. I don’t remember this being there before
I do but I don’t know if they were there before.
Yes, I have them, total 14 options
Ugh, I thought it was a clue…
I have them, but I had them before last night as well.
Everyone stay calm. They’re working on it and reminding everyone not to listen to rumors. Here’s link to Carolina’s Admissions Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/UNCAdmissions/status/691715402624274432?ref_src=twsrc^tfw
I can totally get the anxiety. You all have been waiting since 10/15! And this appears to be the latest EA answer…
Good luck all. It will come soon now. I “happen to know” “from someone that works at UNC admissions” that they will come by Friday at 9pm!
:))
@HRSMom 9pm? that seems pretty odd.
@litlhoward2468 I think she meant BY Friday at 9:00 PM. Not actually at that time. I think she was also restating the obvious and implied that by the laughing emoji. Good Luck to all.
does anybody think that it’s possible for them to send out decisions today without having sent an email beforehand?
@GlenRobnsonIII is right…about time…doesn’t say much of the operational efficiency of their Admissions dept…we applied the earliest (10/15) and we are hearing the latest, with 0 communications…my daughter is annoyed and as she decides which schools to go to, this has left a bitter taste in her mouth about UNC…she already has visited and loves her other 2 EA schools, so UNC is already a laggard in her mind…
