This is probably REALLY far-fetched lol but have you guys tried making an Onyen? I got my PID by entering last 6 digits of SSN, first/last name, b-day and then I clicked forgot Onyen on the website. It said no Onyen found (probably obvious), but I’m curious if anyone has been able to make one. This probably means nothing but nervousness makes you do weird stuff lol
For any of you in-state kids who have made the Admissions Status Portal account, is your residency determined as in-state because my residency is shown as out of state even though I have been validated as in state.
@mkmk29 i validated residency and then it disappeared from my portal after a couple days. I called and they said that I was being considered as in state. I’d call tomorrow and make sure there haven’t been any hiccups in your residency determination
Mine was also shown as “non resident” at first even though I am validated as in state. I called and they said it must be a glitch with the portal because they had me as a in state resident in their files. Luckily, the next day the glitch disappeared.
It showed up below where my test scores were shown, but I’m pretty sure it only shows up if you are classified as a non resident. In other words, if it does not show up, you should be classified as a resident.
@unchopeful99 hmm, my residency is in CA. My father lives in NC but I’ve never visited for more than a couple weeks at a time. Plus I’m independent so don’t think his residency would be a factor. Maybe it doesn’t show until all check marks are completed? High school transcript hasn’t been received yet. I’ll see if it changes once the application is complete. Thank you

Hey! So this is my third time applying so I am familiar with the steps to go about after submitting the application and information. I just opened MyCarolina Status Portal and my ACT score is showing up from my transfer submission last year. I did not resubmit it this year, would this show up on their end for this year’s submission or is it just showing in the portal because it is linked to my name? If so, is there a way to remove it? Thanks
@allmightychemist i have my scores from when I applied as a Senior still on my portal. I called them up and they said AO’s would only see scores that I listed on my transfer app. They didn’t provide the most clear/definitive answer so, if you call, please post back what they tell you.
@justicebeaver I received the email less than 24 hours later but it definitely wasn’t immediate. I wouldn’t worry until at least 72 hours goes by and you still don’t have it.
I have a question if anyone can help. This email made me nervous, particularly the withdraw part. I submitted my application without Common App receiving my transcripts. Totally my error, input all colleges attended but neglected to note the transcripts required part. CH has received my college transcripts but the high school was just mailed out on 02/13. It will probably get there long before 03/12 but would they likely withdraw a transfer app based on not receiving a high school transcript? Thanks
Thank you again for applying to Carolina! It looks like you have remaining application items to submit, which you can view in your MyCarolina checklist. To move forward with your application, we ask that you submit all required materials no later than March 12.
Otherwise, we will withdraw your application, or at our discretion, we will proceed with your application as it is, without these materials.
