<p>Does anyone know? There were 14,000 Early applications. What was the acceptance rate for instate vs OOS in the early round this year? There were many more early apps than last year.</p>
<p>Bump 10 char</p>
<p>Looks like just over 36%. I don’t see any info breaking down in state and out of state %.</p>
<p>[UNC</a> News - Carolina offers admission to 5,100; 7% increase in first-deadline applications](<a href=“http://uncnews.unc.edu/content/view/4243/75/]UNC”>http://uncnews.unc.edu/content/view/4243/75/)</p>
<p>Hmm. Interesting. Does this mean that they’re going to accept fewer RD applicants, or are they just banking on a lower yield?</p>
<p>Don’t know why they’d bank on a lower yield (at least of instate students) in this economy. </p>
<p>So, if 18% of the accepted applicants were OOS, that would be 919 accepted OOS students, and 4185 accepted IS students. I wonder how many of the 14K applicants were OOS vs IS?</p>
<p>I’m sure they accept more than 18% of OOS students, because they are probably more likely to decline and choose other schools if they can get into UNC OOS. But somebody asked this on the blog, and Julie said that there were 7,000 OOS applications. I thought it was weird that half were OOS, but that just means that it was easier for the IS kids to get in.</p>
<p>I think on the blog Julie from Admissions said there were about 7000 OOS applicants (so, to prove my prowess at advanced math, allow me to conclude that there must have been around 7000 IS). IF your assumption that the acceptance %s are directly correlated to State law (and I don’t know if they are - e.g. perhaps statistically Admissions knows that the yield rates for OOS are lower than in state, so maybe, just maybe, the % of those accepted is something like a hypothetical 25%/75% split? who knows?), then that means the OOS acceptance rate would be about 13 % and the IS rate would be about 60%. Right away, that can’t be right based on past trends, so I do assume more than 18% of those accepted were from OOS (again, Admissions must know from experience that OOS yield rates are lower than IS).</p>
<p>You beat me to it, jessimo</p>
<p>Know what the yield was for OOS and IS acceptees last year?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>They do not. The Carolina Admissions rep from my tour said they are only allowed to accept up to 18% of their total population from Out of State.</p>
<p>Actually, the 18% is the maximum amount of out of state students able to enroll due to state law. Although the acceptance rate for out of state students hovers around a similar 15-18%, the state requirement has to do with the amount of OOS students that are allowed to enroll, not with how many OOS students are allowed to be accepted.</p>
<p>Each year, in the March/April edition of the Carolina alumni magazine, the university publishes a ton of admissions information about the class that entered the previous August. So here is a bit of information on the UNC-CH class that entered in fall 2009. </p>
<p>IN STATE (non alumni children) 8,092 applied, 3,967 admitted, 45.7% admit rate, 2517 enrolled for a 68.1% yield. (alumni children): 1,445 applied, 799 admitted, 55.3% admit rate, 601 enrolled for a 75.7% yield. </p>
<p>OUT OF STATE (non alumni children): 12,973 applied, 2,639 admitted, 20.3% admit rate, 751 enrolled for a 28.5% yield. (alumni children) 517 applied, 207 admitted, 38.5% admit rate, 91 enrolled for a 44% yield. </p>
<p>There is no information about first deadline vs second deadline #s and admit rates. </p>
<p>Hope this helps with perspective!</p>
