@AlmostThere2018 She is IS. We don’t know any specifics but excited to get something…lol She is DYING to get into the Journalism School. She was accepted OOS to UVA but I think she might choose UNC if she gets into the J School.
@ParentOf2022 - sorry, my daughter had to run out for a school event last night and didn’t get a chance to check her portal regarding Honors Carolina. Hopefully others can check, but it does seem like email is the notification avenue so far so you might want to check in with admissions on your email address.
Wow. I really have no words and didn’t even think this scholarship was possible. I was so dejected after I found out I wasn’t a finalist for the Morehead Cain scholarship but this is just about the same thing. I might just be committed to UNC now.
My daughter OOS received the full tuition /room / board as well this morning !
@Sciencegirlfromthewest – Congrats!! Which scholarship? Helpful to know which ones are sending out notifications.
Ok question… I just got the email that says “Congratulations! We’re thrilled to offer you a Carolina Scholarship, an award covering tuition, fees, room and board for four years of undergraduate study at the University.” Maybe it’s because I’m just so in shock… but is this a full-ride? Or just partial scholarship? I’m from OOS and never fully considered UNC until now so I want to make sure I’m not lying to myself. Thanks!
Ditto same here. I’m still shocked
Congratulations!!! People will say “full ride” and yes that means tuition, books, room and board. You should be very proud.
Congratulations to all of you that’s so, so amazing! I keep refreshing my email inbox but I think I need to let it go at this point haha
Congrats to all who received scholarships? If you haven’t recieved an email yet does that mean you didn’t receive any merit? I’m OOS, so getting in was already a blessing. Just wondering
All we know for sure is that some students got notification of being a Carolina Scholar this morning. (Congrats to all!)
There are a few other scholarships out there (Robinson, Johnston, Pogue) as well whose names have not yet come up in this thread. Anyone who has received those other awards – chime in! 
Has anyone heard about the Pogue Scholarship yet?
I just got my email about assured admission into EURO-TAM. Maybe other Excel@Carolina emails will come out soon.
My daughter got an email that she is in Carolina research scholar program. Does anyone have any information about it?
My son just got an email that he was offered Carolina research scholar. We’re still waiting to hear about chancellor’s science. The research scholar doesn’t come with any money, but sounds great.
I was just offered assured admission to the journalism school, waiting on any scholarships still.
@2018applicantmom you can look at the excel@Carolina website. It clarifies the details of the program, however, the email explains it pretty well.
If offered excel research scholar, does that mean chances of Carolina Scholar is off the table? Or is there still a chance?
Son received the Excel Research Scholar as well.
@ParentOf2022 I’m wondering about that as well. We’re waiting to hear about another opportunity which includes a scholarship. Have to wonder if that means it is off the table.
