UNC waitlist class of '26

Thank you so much for sharing this information! My son is also in-state and hoping to be on a pre-law track as well. I have often wondered how their waitlist works and this is a good explanation! Best of luck!

Anyone know when decisions may be released?

I got excited about your post but now i see it was deleted. Was that for a different school? Or did you get a different answer from UNC?

No, it was a phone call I had with UNC today but I felt bad to give anyone hope since it was a really quick phone call and the first person who answered.

Do they have any timelines for the first wave communication? Email will be send to all at once?

The admissions office said they had less than 150 spots this year. They sent out all of the waitlist invitations at the same time. They do not communicate if you did not receive an offer of admission. The students who did receive an offer have 2 weeks to commit and if there are any spots left after that then the admissions office will send out additional offers, likely with a similar time to respond.

Where did you hear this information? So all 150 have already been notified?
