UNC Class of 2023 Excel@Carolina

Hey! I noticed that we did not start a thread specifically for information about UNC’s Excel@Carolina opportunities so I thought I would start one.

anyone know when it will be released?

Within two weeks of your acceptance. Honors and Excel @ Carolina.

How does it come? Portal? Email? Snail Mail? Thanks!

Honors Carolina website says: Honors Carolina will send a congratulatory email and a hard-copy invitation letter to select students within one week of admissions decisions being published online.

Pretty surprising. Excel and scholarships were released the Monday after decisions last year. If you get any of these they should come as an email to you first and foremost.

@MrRobot2018 - Email, and you get a little goody bag for Honors- a journal, a pen, a sticker…

Honors Carolina just updated “Key Dates & Deadlines” to 2019 info.

Must be soon if you can select housing by Feb 1.

I just got assured admission to Kenan-Flagler!

I just got EXCELerated Research!!

I also just got EXCELerated Research! Very happy, but does this mean I was not chosen for Honors Carolina? Has anyone gotten an email for Honors?

@chocolate1001 My son is both Honors and Research in Excel. They are two different programs. Congratulations!!

Anybody get honors or study abroad fellowship yet?

I haven’t, but I’m also wondering when they will come out!

@thebly waiting on the same two :slight_smile:

If I haven’t received anything yet does that mean I’m not in any excel programs or honors?

@Essel Congrats to your son! Is he class of 2023? I’m not sure if the Honors program has been released yet.

@Essel is your son a current student or class of 2023?

Just found out I was selected for the EXCELerated Research program! Wasn’t expecting anything like this so it’s definitely a nice surprise. Does anyone have personal experience or knowledge with the program? I’m still just a little confused about how it actually works.
