idk i thought the results would come out today @watdapuck

@berkeley101 ohh if they come out today itll be around 4 apparently

4 AM NC time ??? Or 4 PM?

4:00 pm. Go to bed and sweet dreams! :slight_smile:

@Helen5397 Actually, that is College of Arts and Sciences. I had to look back on my Tar Heel Tracker.

@watdapuck Yes, y’all should when admissions coming out saying, “due to high traffic” because I imagine it is a lot of y’all but emails are delayed so the decision will be out while the email has not reached y’all yet.
@berkeley101 It will most likely come out at 4:00 PM today.

I was too anxious to sleep…

Just an FYI, a bunch of you are interpreting the OOS legacy statistic wrong. Out of the ~18% OOS students that are selected, approximately 40% will be legacies. This does not mean that you have an 18% chance, or a 40% chance, but a ~9% chance (statistically, based on this alone). That being said, I’m assuming that there are way, way less legacies applying than non-legacies, so your chance is actually much higher. It is still NOT 40%.

My understanding is that OOS legacy students have a 40% chance of acceptance. 40% of OOS students are not legacies.

@Is2018 Yeah I really just want to know at this point, whatever it is… 40% is still pretty low, and plus I’m competing with so many other amazing applicants! I’m almost certain I don’t stand a chance lol

My D left this morning saying if decisions come out during school, half her class will be in the hallway on their phones…lol The excitement is building and many students will get decisions that will be yet one other piece of the puzzle to them finding their place in higher education. Good luck to everyone today and special thoughts to all the parents who are feeling the stress of our babies. Have the ice cream and cookies ready to celebrate or comfort. Emotions run deep for everyone in this process and as my D said this morning, “Mom I know how much I want to get in but I will be so sad for some of my friends if they don’t get in. Even if I don’t get in, I want my friends to get their dream”.

Good luck!

@lesjubilants UNC sent me a letter a while ago saying that they generally admit 40% of all OOS legacy applicants, not that 40% of their admitted OOS student body is legacy. I might find the letter to check it again bc I’m so nervousss

Good luck to everyone today! :slight_smile:

For sanity’s sake I’m staying off CC today. Good luck - see you at 5!

Good luck to everyone receiving results today!

i hope they come out st 4pm

Their last tweet was very cryptic
