Hi, I am a high school senior from PA, looking to apply to UNC. I hope to eventually go into a nutrition-related field. I understand getting into UNC is much more difficult as an OOS applicant, so I was wondering what my chances looked like or compared to with those who have gotten accepted recently. In addition to what I listed, my essays are strong which I’m hoping will help, my AP Lit teacher, along with others have reviewed them extensively. I am applying regular-decision.
