1 messages · Page 3 of 1
I don't know but it so perfectly suits you for some reason
Lorax was silly and kind and joyful but serious too
Thank you prez 💕
indeed i did it looks awesome 
My 6 weeks away prayer circle begins….. 🙏
Plz unc you must take all my troubles away I beg
I’ve lost hope for unc
is it like the learn more about honors carolina ?
guys do UNC Ea decisions come in waves or in one day
one day
the 31

One day
They usually post the last week of January iirc
I think my cycle they posted the 26th or 27th
(January 2021)
bruh is it hard to get accepted into their global thing
like the thing where you study a semester somewhere else
i applied to it but idk maybe ?
Honestly idk
It's hard bc I think I only ever talked to one person who did it
But that doesnt mean its hard to get in necessarily, since it could be that other people who got in chose other schools or didnt talk about it
I can ask around though :)
I've lost hope from life
their global launch is kinda like a backup for if u don’t get into the undergraduate i think
if u selected ur interest
i feel like the global launch would actually be so fun, kinda hoping for that result if they reject me from the main campus first HAHA
FR IT LOWK DOES
like everyone I know didn’t want to write the extra essay and I was like wait Hol up
LOL EXACTLY😭
and i ended up using parts of that essay for other schools' supplements too so its a win either way 💪
r most of u in state?
do people see this as like a very difficult school out of state
DAM
Nah
Yes everyone sees it as v hard but it’s the most popular college to apply to at my HS
what state r u in
I think it’s the combo of mostly cheap tuition, good party school, good weather, good athletics, good academics
yeah
think of it like gt oos vs instate
oos need ivy stats
I’m so scared
I’m sad because everyone who gets in will already be in an Ivy League
Like plzzzz I swear I’ll actually go 😔
Considering OOS acceptance is close to 9%, I would hope so 😭
If it helps, UNC is legally required to limit the amount of students who are admitted from OOS
They can be fined $1-2 million if over 18% of the incoming class is OOS
Not just accepted, but incoming and attending
Fining a state school is crazy
Fining an institution for breaking the law is not insane 😭
oos?
pretty crazy if oos but quite normal if in state
no, in state
No like, isn't it weird that a state school will be fined by the state for breaking the state laws
I dont think I see what you're talking about lol
State school resides in the state and is bound to state laws, so it makes sense that when they break the law they pay the fine set by the state they reside in yk
No but if it's a state school then isn't it being managed by the state
Then how would the state fine itself
No
State school just means we get tax money for funding
We not entirely run by the state govt
Although there is govt meddling in the BOG but thats still not "govt running the school"
Then who is running state schools
They're not affiliated with the government?
Wdym who is running state schools
Nvm I'm just confused
i am scared
flagships like UT austin, UVA, Umich, UNC
public ivies we call them
all around 10% acceptance rate
like the really severe one that ik is UT austin honors, the one im applying for (canfield business), is like 2% OOS
ik but im still nervous my app isn’t good enough
I ❤️ the public ivies
But chapel hill is on top fr
Except I’m not applying to UT Austin but am applying to the UCs
I think this makes sense
College apps are scary
Texas ick
LOL
@west cobalt congratulations on uchi acceptance
super unexpected but thanks
Literally 💀
(they probably already have)
really? its only dec but decisions release late jan :((
squirmy i thought u went to unc
i hope i get in i love this school smmm
they give need based aid to oos like uva right
I do :)
Depends on your need but I think so
They read my app a few days after I submitted it (when I got to read my admissions file)
They've probably got other things to work on related to admissions or other stuff
Or maybe decisions come out late bc of our shit BOG idk
oooo so u go to both? robertson?
No I'm just trolling haha
oh nice
Altho I have friends in Robertson
oh lol
do any of u guys know anything abt wake forest
im not in nc so i thought maybe anyone there rn could tell me anything
Gives heavy "rich kids gated community" vibes to me
Idk anything about academics
I know locally like WFU isn't an obscure university but idt people view it on the same level as Duke, UNC, NCSU
when does this shit come out
i applied hopefully i got in
All I know is it's extremely expensive and kinda rich people school
Also it looks secluded
Tho it is good/prestigious apparently
Its def not a bad school
Usually EA comes out last week of January
they said they’d consider it if it was sent in before december 1st I also had rec letters in like Late november’s
wondering how that affects admissions?
Dunno how it affects admissions or not, but they may reread
You'll have to see in your admissions file after you get accepted ;)
Omg wait
When can you see that
And how
I’m so scared
6 week prayer circle once again I did my other one a bit too early
?
broski im the opposite of scared, this school made us submit apps in OCTOBER and WONT GIVE US A DECISION UNTIL JANUARY 😡
Man chill down
naw bro anyone would be mad honestly
:/
After committing*
Kind of
You will have to schedule an appointment during the year
As a student
I’m so curious
I wish i could see it if I got rejected because it prob holds somewhat true to all colleges
And I want to see where it all went wrong lol
Each college looks for different things in an applicant, so I wouldn't take rejection as an indication that you did something wrong
That being said, it makes sense that you'd want to see your decision lol
Waiting sucks
You should never take a rejection as an indication that something was wrong with ur application
Tbh
idk even what college i applied to?
wait it was gillings school of public health only...
do you think this will ruin my chances bc my first choice was 1 early assurance program and my second choice was another ea program
You dont get admitted by college
You get admitted to UNC
Assured enrollment or whatever doesnt affect your chances of getting into UNC
Its independent
Me when half my why us essay was about how I wanted to pursue a mba in the future at kenan w/o realizing u need 5 years work experience and it’s diff from undergrad 😹
UNC will prep you for the MBA EZ
5.5 weeks ish prayer 🙏
Dw guys
Wdym
Literally they would make my day if I got in unc is so good for my major 😞😞
What's your intended major?
Health care policy!
GOTTA be AK
LOL it’s not
Hough
Hello UNC
Hello sillyprez
A month ish away! ⁉️⁉️⁉️
plz UNC chapel hill my acceptance would bring me so much peace ☮️
this
bro i’m kinda geekin ab this
i was chill then i got rejected from tulane so im overthinking it
idek if i have the stats to get in
me with getting deferred from duke
I completely forgot I applied here
And to any other schools ea 😭
I guess we’ll know January
congrats <j>
new way of sending likely letter fr /s
GG
I've heard sometimes official college accounts might follow you back in you follow them first
I’d be surprised if UNC did considering they follow like 100 ppl
whats the sat score range to submit for this school for business
doesnt admit by major
oos prolly 1500+
in state around 1450+
ur sure ur not talking abt the ivies 😭😭
oos is crazy
UNC is a public ivy it's AR is 16%
oos is 8%
ive had friends get into Ivies from out of state get rejected at UNC
however In state is easier, but depends which county
yield protection
ahh i see
competitive counties honestly a 1450+ to have a good shot
but rural maybe like a 1370 will suffice
they have this 80/20 split
i mean 18%
only 18% of their student body can be OOS
😭 its rough for OOS but honeslty tahts just every state funded school
yay
are u in state?
nope
ut austin?
yes
i applied there too LOL
woop
are u from texas?
yea
o
i heard ut austin
gives automatic acceptance
if ur in top 6%
of ur class at a texas public hs
but it’s only to the school as a whole, not ur major 😦
o
i come from a competitive HS thats a feeder school for UNC so hopefully
it works out well
🙏 praying we both get into our top choice!
tyyy!!
EUUUUUNNNNNCCEEEEE
State law prevents state schools from admitting too many OOS students
Oh cece already mentioned
Yas
I come from one of the most competitive you need 1500+ or 34+ here 💀
wake
?
Oooh what hs 🤭
Nah mecklemburg
oh im from wake
Oooh yup that’s the other one
nah its not 1500 necessarily
prolly 1450 but also a 4.5+ gpa
- good ecs
avg gpa for UNC here is 4.52
There’s no hard line but I’ve seen IB kids with crazy high stats rejected
Specifically just cuz I went to a mega feeder HS all the stat reqs were inflated
I saw 4.8s get rejected
i mean my school
also feeder
but its not inflated
💀 im regretting not going to the one i was supposed to go to
the courses r rough here.
r u at unc
u said ur school was a mega feeder
Yup 💀
u think its a solid chance then as long as ur like
within the top few of ur class?
I’m gonna be so honest from what I saw I don’t think they care about stats as much as arcs
ECs
Like I wasn’t even top of my class
idk my logic be like if my school takes around 80 kids
Granted I had a 900 kid senior class but still
High stats are the baseline to get you considered
ill get in
Not necessarily
😭
Not to discourage you
with decent ECs
But I had friends who were in the top of class and got rejected
theyre nothing superb im just a reg applicant tbh in terms of ECs
essays were meh too
As long as you have good ECs and decent essays I think you’ll be fine
Yeah so was I
what were ur ECs?
Tbh college apps are such a crapshoot I really couldn’t tell you ur chances
yea hoenstly im just hoping the two AOs woke up on the right side of the bed
My main was XC/Track and then I won some state level speech and debate awards
the day they review me.
And then pulled the race card about founding an Asian club at our school lmfao
😭
Genuinely that’ll do more for you than any EC would💀
my main EC is biochemistry research at NCSU
Yeahhhhh I think you’re fine
man I have heard some people refer to UNC as safety like tf
with recs from the professor I did research for
plus they are OOS
YEAHHHHH ur fine
n then the basic ones like student council, other internships, jobs, etc.
OOS calling it a safety is crazy
ECs wise I think you’re fine girl
bro i see these tiktok predictions
Now it’s just luck
limmytalks
real
Hate that guy
CRAZYYYYY
big sigh
is limmytalks
I am an intl but not sure if stats/ecs are enough for unc
that one asian dude
Yeah
that always reviews college apps
yep
The one Asian Duke guy who makes shit up
honestly idk what unc wants
He gives me RANCID vibes
its a pretty liberal school
Unc wants ECs and essays!
I have the SAT for UNC but not the GPA
Moreso than stats
sucks fr
my essays were awful
UNC doesn’t care extremely about gpa
bro for the why us essay i wrote about how in the future i wanted to pursue an MBA with a concentration in health policy at kenna flagler
... not knowing MBA was 5 years work experience
That’s a good why us
Nooo it shows future interest
Oh good luck 💀
well at least they dont admit by major...
It’s not about the difficulty per se
There’s one legendary UNC Econ professor who is a mega bitch
noted
They do
my college counselor was an old AO
for UNC
she told me that they do care about class rank a lot
UNC is such a vibe school
since they boast so much about it
bru i feel like going to unc
is just a repeat of seeing all the ap kids in hs
Like academic wise?
i mean ik its a big school
Or “run into people I know” wise
Run into them a lot
in my classes
like every class i take its the same
pool of ppl
just switching it up
💀
You’ll see them at like frats and stuff
oh god
But classes are so major specific a lot of the time you really won’t
nah everyone at my HS
be so snobby
and fake
id hate to have to see the same faces
in college too
Girl I can relate to you so hard
My HS was also like that
Genuinely it’s not that bad
let me tell u i died laughing when this girl got rejected from duke when she made it her entire personality and bragged 24/7
😭
when ivy decisions came out
Fuck that school
this year
bro
its like 7am in the morning
in AP LIT
and everyones like
omg i got into this
loud enough the entire school can hear
😭
God I do not miss college decisions
It gets so much better
Promise
When ur at unc next year you’ll love it
how stressed were u
bye
I was extremely overconfident
I learned from my classmates it wasn’t and I got lucky
Genuinely I think you’ll be fine
yeah everyone tells me that
but itll be a huge like letdown
if i dont get in
yk when everyone expects u to get in
I am an intl where we have no class ranks lmao
also its not like unrealistic for me to get into UNC, since its IN state
40% acceptance rate
It really isn’t
so itll make it even more worse if i dont get in lMFOA
Imma be real that 40% is lying
That counts the like 90% rural buttfuck nowhere county ARs
cries in wake
We both live in actually populated counties
That’s mine!
Mecklenburg
yeah that
Oh whatsup squirmy
guarenteed admit
Absolutely not
That place is a hellhole
Ngl I dont understand where the "wake is competitive" thing comes from :( I always assumed it was cope bc I only heard it from my mom and now you two LOL
Soop!
That’s because they go there so they want you to think it’s cool
Everyone I know who went to ncssm said it fucking sucked
Awful awful awful
well they do do drugs LOLL
Yup my bffs are from there
So many drugs
Cuz when you can’t leave what else do you do
a lot of kids from my school does
And it’s so cliquey
NCCSSM online
Not to mention the pressures with NCSSM
FR
I know in my year we had 1 Yale, 1 Duke, and 1 somewhere in Cali that I forgor
Caltech?
Nah it was a LAC
im just tryna go to unc
UNC will terrorize you like its an ivy anyways :3
Can confirm!!
to NC
(It gets better past intro)
its basically an ivy
LMFAO during finals week
i kept seeing tiktoks from unc students
like run away from this school
My early judaism TA talked to us about his experience at Harvard UG and how insanely different it was
Fuck UNC finals szn
Like he told us the amount of cheating he saw from students here was crazy
For him at Harvard it was so... chill and not cutthroat
Yup
Both of them
💀
:3
Yeah
was it scary
Soup was super close to it iirc
I was in the building next to it
oh wtf
In hindsight we were never in danger
my parents knew the professor
I was in therapy when the alert went out and didnt see it until an hour after 💀
yea it was targeted
We were huddled in the front of the class listening to police scanners to try and get info
Crazy shit
u think its bc
Then people started spreading rumors he was dressing as police 😭
unc is rlly stressful?
I remember my friends getting evac'd and we didnt know if they apprehended anyone so people were freaked out
He also struggled w untreated mental health issues
i heard that guy had to repeat his PHD years
People found his Twitter he was batshit crazy
some conflicts
There was a ruling recently that he was unfit to stand trial bc of his mental state
so his degree was delayed
oh yeah i saw that
I feel bad for the professor's family he had two little girls
I think UNC is definitely incredibly cutthroat but if he hadn’t been unstable this wouldn’t have happened
Poor guy
Yeahhhh
Its awful
Yeah same time of day actually
So everyone who had a class was in the same class
Crazyyyyy
States no better they got like 5 suicides a year 💀
Tbf these were the first times I had ever heard of anything this level, let alone experienced it
charlotte..
Their food is ASS
stop. im trying to cope.
Yeah a lot of kids from here who transferred miss the library
is unc food good
i mean i like
i did the unc hospitals junior program
for two years
and there were like a lot of
nice restaurants
near it
idk if the unc hospitals are on the campus
Dining hall stuff isn't like top tier but they've got some good stuff sometimes. I really love their Asian chain in Lenoir
UNC food is like surprisingly decent
And Franklin St is insane
what are ur thoghts on the
passes
like the dining hall passes
theres like a lot of options
does it last?
Like 100 swipes + $250 flex
Depends on where you eat and stuff
I don't go out a lot so for me it absolutely lasts
i eat like one meal a day.
I’m in a sorority so things are a bit different for me
o
SoupCat lore drop
Wdym
my gpa updated over break but its bc i finished two dual enrollment courses already so they updated it but my school's first seemster doesn't end until January 20th
would i use the new one?
or the original one
You can put the new one
They'll be able to see your transcripts and stuff so they can evaluate it with the old if they choose
I have 2 college courses
i got As in senior year already finished
so they updated it
but i still have two coursees in progress
i have As in them rn, so it'll go up more after first semester. So rn its only half updated?
idk how it works
cuz i heard ppl apply regular decision to like better their application with better stats
since they look at first semester
but my school's first semester is super super late
Nah dw about it
^
idk if its psychological
It definitely is
no like is there a diff
between seeing a 1490 and a 1500
yk just psychologically
Last year I lived in a state of constant anxiety
Oh yeah absolutely
But realistically there’s not really a difference
Yeahhhh ur good girl
big jump
They’ll see the difference on ur transcript anyway
😭 i hope to be able to say that next year around this time
Promise
to another senior LOL
Things will work out
that everything works out
we love squirmy
Squirmy love
I'm a junior at UNC. I don't attend Duke :)
Something about UNC students and just being so kind and beautiful and amazing
Yall are too kind
What are yalls intended majors? @chrome viper @candid scaffold
Biology BS, Environmental Science - Quantitative Energy Systems BS :)
Also certificate in applied data science & sustainable triangle field site (basically sustainability minor)
Economics B.S.
i was thinking of also adding computer science
dont know how that works
My first year roommate was an econ major!
Comp sci kinda overrated unless you want to do SWE/CS research
Not entirely but
I'm a huge information science promoter lol
CS isnt too competitive
Like there is an application process but it doesnt affect admission into UNC
And they still admit like 60-80% iirc
It's mostly to ensure the people who really want to major in CS can major in CS
Also sorry if this comment came off the wrong way 💔 I assumed you were like "econ but quantitative" and not "interested in CS"
o i meant like just in general for all my colleges i did econ LOL
o dw i didnt take it like that 😭
Ahh gotcha
nc it basically does in the more populated counties. For example in wake county certain schools have like 200 people applying and have like 100 get in, most of them being in the top 100
Wait where you go now
UNC
Nah in state
I’m from one of those big mega competitive areas tho if that means anything
Me 🤝 soupcat
In state but not auto admit
Tragedy of the metro areas 😔
Unc
Idk why I even applied here ea lolllll
It’s so far from my state
I think it’s cause scholarships and the Roberson
Did anyone apply btw
Yeah
Ik that getting semi finalist means you get in but like
Before even the Robertson comes out if I got moved to semi finalist would they communicate to UNC before they released their decisions? Idk 😭 I really only did it for the UNC boost
@inner quail how do you feel about ncsu
you're the person advocating unc all the time right
Yeah
I think NCSU is a fantastic option to consider as well!
In the end if you're accepted to both, it's best to consider culture & offerings within your intended major imo
last minute edits to the college list lol
But I think that both schools are fantastic and will always advocate for NCSU
(Plus you can do interinstitutional enrollment with UNC and other local schools)
oooh
sounds cool
yeah my cousins there for law school rn
and i have some family
so im applying to nc schools
but im going w ncsu over wake forest
wake forest eerily reminds me of tufts in a lot of ways
low acceptance rate
just dropped out of 30s to 40s in ranks
rich people
small
Honestly idk much about WFU other than it exists and has a low AR
And it's not in Wake Forest
i only heard of them bc theyve been hitting up my email like crazy
two emails today alone
Lmfao
how i wish i didnt chekc that box releasing my info to colleges on my psat
At least La Jolla is considered part of San Diego (according to google maps at least
)
oh that would make sense
Me too
asked cause track is my main EC too
here
My SAT score is in their portal even though I didn't see an option on their application to go test optinal
Does UNC Chapel Hill collect test scores regardless of whether your go test-optional or not
From the admission's page
I've reviewed my application pdf on the common app and there Is a section here
Does this imply that the scores are needed post-admission, or is it part of the application process itself?
It says "must provide official test scores if admitted", so it would be post-admission
So what about the second part, though?
Where it says self report
"If admitted and self-report" means that if you self-reported in the app, and get accepted, you must send official scores
If you sent a score on your app, you self-reported
I didn't self report anything though
I self reported on common app does that transfer over
I didn't come across anything on the application that said testing is considered or not considered
Yes, I believe so
I'll check
Alr, I think I'll call them tbh.
I believe the test scores transfer, but if a college is test-optional, shouldn't the Common App for that school have an option to choose if scores should be considered? I didn't see this option in the UNC application when I reviewed my application PDF. My scores appeared there unexpectedly, without any clear option to have them considered or not.
when does this shit come out
huh
?
thnaks
Yeah
Typically last week of January
Not a set date afaik, mine came out around 26-28 (2021)
aw man
i thnk jan 31
nah
EARLY ACTION (NON-BINDING)
Application Deadline – October 15
Decision Available – January 31
that's the last date
idk though since they suually release a couple days earlier
but its typically last week of jan
how come
so many deadlines
or desicions
cuz at out school they make you apply ea everywhere
so they all are coming back like late jan - mid feb
yeah lol itll be ok though even if i get rejected from all of them im ok with my accepatnces rn
wbu
do you have a lot of ea coming back next month or so
ah okay
W
yeah man
about 4 or 5 in jan
few in feb but im mostly likely doing ed2 so that matters way more ofc
yep
I’m scared
Prob not but do u guys know how hard the global launch program would be to get into
cuz I’m so down 😭
lowk id be down too
does UNC admit by major?
No
rad.
It is with great sorrow I say
i cant get over how late that is
like whty
which one was this?
yeah it’s crazy because we also had the oct 15 deadline
but unc gets so many applications that’s they need all that time to read them all as well
every school gets sm applications lol but 3.5 months?? thats a lot
even my state school did ea 1 as rolling and gets so many apps
yeah idk
i don’t know why the couldn’t do the Nov1 deadline to late december desicion release like most schools but it’s okay
i know lol, but its totally fine
It's possible that they have to consider more factors than just quality of application/whether they want you or not (ex. assured enrollment, global launch/other programs, available faculty for the following year, funding restrictions, etc.)
Speculation on my part but it's not too unreasonable I think
I sent an email today curious if there was different criteria and they were vague they were just like mature ppl with different perspectives. They also said if you did get in you would prob get your first choice. I was scared and didn’t ask how hard it was to get it 😔
It’s like a step below an acceptance you travel abroad first semester to like Ireland Spain South Korea or sum and you get enrolled in the spring
oh, i almost clicked yes but thought my parents would get mad 🤣
Lolll there are def a lot of big upsides and big downsides
Cost I’m curious about and want to ask ppl how much it would hurt socially to be gone first semester when everyone is bonding. Especially coming out of state where ur alr at a disadvantage
Not worried about the travel aspect at all tho love that ❤️ 🇪🇸
Yeah I worried ab this too.
But I imagine ur cohort will have many people subject to the same thing Socially and as long as ur involved at unc it doesn’t matter
My friend went to Spain for first semester and he didn’t have much trouble making friends afterwards
Every semester is kind of a reset so you meet a ton of new people regardless if it’s spring or fall
is rd oos worth it?
I mean if it’s a solid school for your major I can’t see why it wouldn’t be
it’s a great school in a lot of ways
3 weeks left prayer 🤲
Virginia!!
UNCCC
At unc it’s Ireland, Scotland or Spain
I can speak more to it if you have any questions
University of north Carolina community college
is there a way to see breakdown of counties? sorry for replying like a week later lmao
Oh ok awesome Ty — I’m super stressed and want to get in rlly bad. Because I know OOS acceptance is like ivy leavue 😢
Yeah it’s hard but super possible; I got in and wasn’t a crazy applicant
Ok that makes me feel better
It’s like the most popular college to apply to at my school but I’m hoping like none of them wanted to do the extra essay for unccc
So I’m hoping I’m special 👅
There’s no extra essay
wat
Um I’m not sure honestly
wait does this mean that they will only use the self reported scores to determine if ur test optional or not, meaning if you submitted them in mycarolina they would auto assume ur not test optional right?
count ur days unc
I feel like im not good enough to get in here ea as an iOS
Oos
Like why did I apply I guess 😔
You miss 100% of the shots you dont take
ofc but i saw the acceptance rate and felt so sad
and there are plenty of schools on my list w/ lower rates too, idk how i'll fare im already sitting on a deferral
This was the first school I submitted, and looking back, my essays were actually so bad 💀
SAME this was the first school with essays that i submitted and my supps were not the best
Should I submit my 1430 SAT score for this university
Or is it too low
I found out about this place late unfortunately and didn't know it was affordable
Are u in state? If so probably yea
when do decisions release here?
Is UNC competitive? Yea
I’d just look at the 25th percentile tbh
25th percentile for English was 660
I had 650
Math?
Math I'm above 75th percentile with a 780
Submit
Yup
I applied here just for fun
Probably not even gonna go if accepted
Where u headed then
If no good news in march, Ohio state
I wanted to apply here because good Neuro program and affordable
Oh damn
This is my alternate if I don't get into in state UT
Second to last week for us
last yr?
Last week of January
Yuh
o did u get in
Yeah I did!
Traitor 💔
i should’ve applied early i’m applying for fun rn
since i moved from nc no more instate tuition
and since i didn’t apply early i don’t think i qualify for pouge scholars or whatever it’s called
