Congrats to everyone who got in!

tiny jay
#

Thank you!!

knotty kindle
#

soo if i got waitlisted am i js fried for robertson

rancid fiber
#

it shouldn’t affect it I’d assume

#

since it’s supposed to be separate from normal admissions

knotty kindle
#

would i be able to drop out of the waitlist like midway

#

cause otherwise im not going to join it

Nc state is not tough enough to hand out rejections

fiery anchor
#

I don't know how it translates to undergrad but I think 1/3 of all grad students are part of CoE

tiny jay
#

Makes sense there engi schools is really good

dull swallow
#

yea

#

I understand Global Launch as a combination of "we want you, but we don't have (physical) space right now" and "fun opportunity to study abroad yippee"

alpine breach
#

Honestly I'm happier to be cgl than normal cuz I love study abroad

fiery anchor
#

I've heard great things about Global Launch!

Cuz cgl

keen glacier

fiery anchor
#

Honors overrated imo

#

There's very little you miss out on being non-honors

signal compass
#

is it worth trying to appeal my aid

#

or accept my fate

fiery anchor
#

It never hurts to appeal

#

Worst that happens is they say no

tiny jay

I wonder if he went test optional tbh

mystic blade
#

Why I think they need to require tests again

tiny jay
#

But its suspicious on ur transcripts u have A's

#

But didnt report a single ap exam

tiny jay

i was gonna apply accounting but my supplemental sounded genuinely evil

mystic blade
#

💀 💀

tiny jay
#

I havent seen a single person post an ncsu acceptance but one girl

#

While for unc I saw 30+ acceptances

full comet
mystic blade
#

Carolina gets way more applicants

#

Overall at least

full comet
#

Also chat wtf is the dual degree assured enrollment thing is that good or..?

#

I lwk clicked random boxes

tiny jay
#

Yes good thing!

full comet
mystic blade
#

Believe only 1k assured enrollment offers were made against 5k acceptances for the in state cycle

I'm happy my instate mich friend told me not to apply i understand now

top 3 most evil places:
umich admissions office

hell

burnt glade
fiery anchor
#

Like Donny mentioned its not like super common

#

I think most common assured enrollment is probably info sci

#

The rest are really uncommon because the programs are small with lots of applicants (or in the case of business just lots of applicants)

#

hi! new to this server so i'm not sure if this has alr been answered, but did anyone else get offered the 'spring forward' program or know anything abt it? i got a scholarship for that program but wanted to know how much of the total cost it would cover

narrow wadi
neat berry
#

interesting alright

#

thank you!

chilly ingot
#

guys is unc honors worth it? ive heard a lot of ppl say its lowk useless

fiery anchor
#

Like the personal things I did that people associate with honors that aren't honors-exclusive

  • graduating with honors
  • doing and honors thesis (related to above)
  • taking honors classes
  • doing research
#

That's not to say that honors carolina is useless, just that non-honors students don't miss a lot, if that makes sense

chilly ingot
#

also how hard is it to get into the business school? would being in the honors college and the accelerated research program help?

gilded hamlet
#

It is more than a normal semester cost so the 2k scholarship won’t cover it all

keen glacier
#

does onyen not work for anyone else? for me it says this user is not eligible for an Onyen

alpine breach
#

I read for us it doesn't work cuz the system thinks we're spring enrollment so we need to call up admissions on Monday

keen glacier
#

so we should call on monday and ask to fix?

#

what is assured enrollment into the information science program

fiery anchor
#

So instead of truly applying you're given like pre-conditional admission to the major

#

If that makes sense

pliant thunder
#

that's sick

fiery anchor
#

The info sci program is fantastic <3 highly rec

bruh i didnt know there was such a big difference in AR for instate and oos

south lava
#

it's like 37 to like 10 percent

spark bramble
#

uva was 23 - 9% this year

south lava
#

dang

spark bramble
#

23% for instate kinda crazy ngl

south lava
#

yea

#

i mean uva is really expensive

spark bramble
#

yeah facts

#

their class is still 67% instate kids but their yield is very high for instate

south lava
#

i didn't think they would have a yield

spark bramble
south lava
#

ohh

spark bramble
#

but it's a big difference compared to 82% instate for unc

south lava
#

i mean yea it makes sense because not that many people would wanna pay that much

#

unc is not that expensive for me

spark bramble
#

but oos is so expensive

south lava
#

yea

#

same with vtech

spark bramble
#

im oos so im still considering other options

south lava
#

otherwise i would actually consider

spark bramble
#

how much is unc for u

south lava
#

26k

spark bramble
#

dang

#

cheap bru

south lava
#

but im pretty sure it could be 16k

#

because i used their calculator and unless i did something wrong it said 16k there

spark bramble
#

UVA is 59k a year

#

oos

south lava
#

yea that's crazy

spark bramble
#

oh wait

#

#

We gotta be realistic fr

#

Lowkey angry at unc cause I got into nc state

#

With tje exact supp essays I used for unc

#

But I was waitlisted

#

Nothing changed

#

Like wtf

mystic blade
south lava
tiny jay
#

My personal statement stayed the same too and I had more activities fkr unc tbh 😭

#

With project uplift and a specific unc medical camp

fiery anchor
#

applying to unis is less like checking off boxes and more like getting into a relationship
theyre not just evaluating you based on meeting simple criteria but also how well they think you will fit into the school as a person
its more like a relationship rejection due to compatibility issues than being "unqualified"

tiny jay
#

Ah ok

#

I just thought with unc specific ecs id seem like a good fit for unc

#

But thats not all of the story

spark bramble
#

Im also an unc

south lava
#

they're not going to admit someone with the sole reason for someone having "unc specific ecs"

#

they're gonna look at someones application as a whole

mystic blade
#

i need everyone at my school to peep that interest isnt considered bit

golden jacinth
#

mystic blade
#

Clicking every email and stuff 😭

#

Yeah, my mom fell down that trap too

tiny jay
#

And before my nee principal came we only had 2 aps offered

#

Cause apush died out

And finally came back my snr ur

I also took ncssm online courses too and those are on par with college courses some of them at least

#

Uncc decisions weren't released earlier

#

The honors college

golden jacinth
#

#

hold on

#

#

tiny jay
#

On the website it said priority due dec

#

And they roll out decisions in feb

tiny jay
golden jacinth
#

thx for the 2k ig but im not going to uncc..

mystic blade
tiny jay
golden jacinth

tiny jay
#

Unc?

#

I got waitlisted remember 😭

#

Is it based on income

golden jacinth
#

uncc!!!!!!

lime pasture
#

is uncc good?

#

i heard campus was gud

mystic blade
#

What's ur major

#

for arch and cs they're pretty good

#

And location helps for banking

#

Also think tuition is like 4k cheaper than Chapel Hill

😭 😭

lime pasture
south lava
#

roi is decent but oos for it is crazy 😭

#

and college life sucks

#

and it's not that good for comp eng idk about cs for u

#

purdue is definitely better and probably cheaper

mystic blade
#

oh oos lol

#

Yeah, wouldn't go to uncc as a nonresident fs

lime pasture
#

i was js curious lmao

south lava
#

i mean location/placement is its biggest aspect

south lava
lime pasture
#

if i get into uf

#

im fs goin

south lava
#

oh are you not gonna buy them if u don't get in

#

idk if there's a dicks near me to check

#

if anything ill just wait to see if i get the beanie and then decide 😭

lime pasture
south lava
#

yea that's true actually

#

ill still support purdue even if i don't go

lime pasture
#

ill prolly let go of purdue lowk

south lava
#

if u get uf?

lime pasture
#

ye

south lava
#

yea that makes sense

#

wait is cs even in their engineering school

#

purdue

lime pasture
#

nah its in sciences

south lava
#

oh

#

it said purdue was 50k for me but they didn't give official offer yet

lime pasture
#

cs @ purdue is better than uf but not worth the price difference

south lava
#

yea definitely

#

you'll definitely get into uf i have no clue how you didn't with ur stats lowk

lime pasture
#

uf rejects way more stacked applicants

#

than me

#

idk

#

its weird

#

but then they let someone in w like a 3.2 1250 and like nun crazy for their ecs

south lava
#

yea but ur in state too

south lava
lime pasture
# south lava cs?

nah they dont admit by major but i think they do consider like ur major and how u stack up against other ppl goin for that major

#

so i prolly js got unlucky idk

south lava
#

ohh do they give auto admit

lime pasture
#

nah

south lava
#

yea

#

oh

lime pasture
#

yeye

#

also as a fsu fan i like orange and blue more

#

yea that

#

sounds

#

so

#

criminal

#

to say

#

but yea

south lava
#

hey but gators are better

#

idk

#

it genuinely depends if you wanna stay there for four years

lime pasture
#

i can see my friends and everything

south lava
#

like i think if i want to transfer unc is the way to go

lime pasture
#

uf doesnt seem bad

lime pasture
#

😭

south lava
#

like unc cs to gt or something

#

yea

lime pasture
#

for cs?

south lava
#

no i meant from unc

#

yea

lime pasture
#

ynah lol

south lava
#

i don't hate the idea of cs

lime pasture
#

u can bag a gud job from unc

south lava
#

and i didn't know it pays more until u told me actually

lime pasture
#

not worth the extra money

lime pasture
#

like purdue and gt cs pays more than eng

#

same w uf

#

even tho i think eng is harder

south lava
lime pasture
south lava
#

like it's just more math and stuff and no actual cs parts

lime pasture
#

i guess

#

that makes

#

sense

#

wait

#

then js go nc state no?

south lava
lime pasture
#

i heard ncsu

#

is better

#

for cs

#

and eng

south lava
#

yes they definitely are

lime pasture
south lava
#

that's true

lime pasture
#

but yea go heels fr

south lava
#

like between unc and nc state if i had to stay for 4 years definitely state

#

uf has good college life though

#

umiami is better but not worth it over uf

#

and im not gonna pick a college just for college life

#

also didn't u take that one class at fsu

lime pasture
lime pasture
lime pasture
#

not

#

even

#

😭

#

uf>um

#

uf>fsu>um

south lava
#

if u wanna see the buns umiami is where u go though

lime pasture
#

buns at uf too

#

😭

#

buns even more at fsu

south lava
#

that's true

lime pasture
#

fsu is def a work hard play hard school now

#

fsu liks top 5 for parties but they r also like

south lava
#

yea same with unc

lime pasture
#

rlly gud academically

lime pasture
#

ok

south lava
#

but uf is definitely best school in florida

lime pasture
#

ye

#

its like uf>fsu
uf>>>umiami

fsu>>>umiami

south lava
lime pasture
south lava
#

one of my friends got direct audit into every florida school somehow and chose fsu

lime pasture
south lava
#

or maybe usf

lime pasture
#

fsu is nice

lime pasture
#

thats

#

def a choice

south lava
#

because he got really good scholarship and it was for med

lime pasture
#

o yea usf

#

has a rlly gud med school

#

strat is uf undergrad

#

then usf for med school

south lava
#

yea

#

i think im mostly just waiting for uiuc now

lime pasture
#

uf eng>fsu eng
uf biz roughly same as fsu biz (esp w the new building)
uf poli sci<fsu poli sci
uf cs>fsu cs

south lava
#

yea

#

i didn't apply to a single florida school 😭

#

i wish nc had better schools

#

or even sc

#

there's nothing here except unc nc state and duke and duke doesn't even give priority for in state

lime pasture
#

😭

#

ncsu and unc

#

are goated

south lava
#

nc states ranking is really low though

#

that's the problem

#

if i move to like arizona

#

no one's gonna know ncsu

#

and unc doesn't even have engineering 😭

#

they have like 3

#

i forgot which

#

it's like bme joint with nc state

lime pasture
#

for eng

south lava
#

and then two really niche ones

lime pasture
#

dw

south lava
#

wait did u apply

#

i forgot

#

ohh it's materials and environmental eng i think

#

but those are so niche

lime pasture
#

got rejecetd

#

got into umd and purdue tho

#

so like

#

idk

#

what ao's be snorting

south lava
south lava
#

nc state deffered a lot of people in my school

mortal lotus
#

they just blatantly lie and mislead

lime pasture
south lava
#

if they were oos they probably would've got rejected

mortal lotus
#

they love to advertise they are the highest ranked medical school in florida

lime pasture
south lava
mortal lotus
mortal lotus

lime pasture
#

😭

south lava
#

id say engineering and unc in state are almost the same percentage

#

like 42 and 38 or something like that

lime pasture
#

thas not bad

#

doesnt nc state use the 82 18 rule tho

#

like 82 in state 18 oos

#

is genuinely freelo

south lava

yea gtech instate is so crazy

literally going to a t5 eng school for cheap and lowk easy to get into

i saw the cds for last year and like five people got in from 900-1100 sat range

shuda moved to sum random town in georgia

my lens is always med

south lava

but transfer rate is also like 40% so

south lava
lime pasture
#

ngl bro

#

if ur hard set on eng/cs

#

go state

#

then transfer if u want

south lava
#

idk if state transfer out schools are good

#

i know most people who transfer from unc get into umich and like uva

south lava
#

plus they have this free bus thing to unc and duke for rtp

#

so i could go to unc for stuff

lime pasture
#

nice nice

#

i think for cs

#

its like

#

ncsu>duke>unc

#

for eng

#

alone

#

if ur ignoring cost tho

#

duke clears

south lava
#

yea that's true

#

unc is cheaper for me too

#

and unc has better alumini network

lime pasture
#

how much cheaper?

south lava
lime pasture
#

mnmm\

south lava
#

i didn't get aid offer from state

lime pasture
#

this lowkey

#

a tuff decision

south lava
#

but it's 28k for me for unc

#

and like 48k for purdue

south lava
#

i think ill just do what jrunner said and spin a wheel or something

lime pasture
south lava
#

polytech

south lava
lime pasture
#

yea stay instate fs

south lava
#

i thought only if you get rejected

#

because i called asking if it was possible to switch and they said they look at both majors and see what's a better fit for you

#

instead of seeing first choice then second

#

it's so dumb

south lava
#

in the purdue thread someone said that polytechnic is only worth it for flight, cyber, and then what i got because a lot of recruiters go for those

#

and the recruiters there are different from engineering

#

so in a way its better

#

but also not really

#

and i don't think it's worth it paying double for a college that doesn't take even half of my college credits that i have rn

lime pasture
#

yeah but the cost

#

dont wanna risk putting urself in debt fr

south lava
#

that's true

#

do ur ib credits transfer

lime pasture
#

idk

#

ib

#

is

#

strange

south lava
#

yea

Omg this is so random, but I'm like 80% sure you were in my 8th grade English class 😭 Can I DM, out of curiosity? No worries if not!!

How good is UNC CS compared to NCSU

#

Herd UNC’s CS suck ass

fiery anchor
#

Both are good

#

I would say UNC edges out NCSU in terms of grad school prep/theoretical CS but it's pretty close

#

UNC CS is also where you wanna go if you wanna double major 100%

abstract lodge
#

What about job prospect

fiery anchor
#

Both very good. You won't be at a particular advantage/disadvantage at either

#

I can find UNC's first destinations survey & NCSU's most recent grad survey if you want to look at specific places where grads end up working

abstract lodge
#

Sure

south lava
fiery anchor
#

Realistically the difference in your outcome will be more reliant on the work you put in lol

#

Let me grab the links

south lava

i don't have assured admit though

#

i swear my family friends be fear mongering the shit outta unc cs saying ppl dont get jobs outta there

pliant thunder
#

wb UNC CS against like GT & UIUC. ik it's worse ofc but I was rly hoping the network there is enough to give it an edge

#

like I feel like it's such an all rounded school

#

that it might work out

gloomy parrot
#

i wanna go unc because i want to double major

south lava
# abstract lodge Sure

for ncsu cs you get admitted to fye so you can apply to any engineering if you really want so it might be better if you aren't sure engineering/tech wise

fiery anchor
south lava
gloomy parrot
#

from unc

south lava
#

apparently they hire more from nc state for cs and only because you get more opportunities and hands on learning at nc state instead of unc

#

but if you go to a different state then i don't know if other recruiters realize cs at unc is more theoretical

south lava

#

i would just say there are better opportunities for cs at some other schools

#

unc cs is still decent and i think they're adding more engineerings

NC State

#

xd

south lava
#

oh dang

#

what major

fiery anchor
#

I did biology BS environmental sciences - quantitative energy systems BS with a certificate in applied data sciences in undergrad
I'm currently doing my PhD in geospatial analytics

gloomy parrot
#

what do you think of info sci paired with cs or econ? @fiery anchor

south lava
south lava

#

Right now UNC has 3 engineering majors

  • BME joint with NCSU
  • Environmental engineering (under the Applied Sciences BS)
  • Materials engineering (also under the Applied Sciences BS)
south lava
south lava
#

if i remember

#

oh yea they are

#

i might do this lowkey

fiery anchor
# south lava wow that's crazy does unc not have geospatial analytics or something

More like I didn't apply for PhDs until late in the app cycle, UNC has geography and it would've been a fine fit I think, especially with the professors I had been working with in Gillings. CGA at State was also a bit of a "hail mary" app, I was originally going to do the MSIS or MPH at UNC and call it there but when I got admitted I couldn't say no

fiery anchor
gloomy parrot
#

@south lava have you heard of LUPA lab? i actually wrote about it on my unc supp lol

fiery anchor
#

Info sci/CS is a pretty common combo, especially for people interested in like, HCI and UI/UX

gloomy parrot
#

its similar to unc ai

fiery anchor
#

But not the only intersection

#

Just the one I'm most familiar with because it also interests me haha

gloomy parrot

Or taking IS classes

south lava
#

do you like college life at state or unc better

fiery anchor
# south lava do you like college life at state or unc better

This is such a hard question LOL. I really liked the vibes at UNC, especially how not-mega-urban it was and how much greenery there was. But I generally found the student body to be... I dunno. Not like all UNC students were unfriendly, but it felt like there were definitely people in certain majors/career paths that were particularly unfriendly or had no interest in maintaining good terms beyond classes.
It's also hard to compare because I'm a PhD student and my program is so small, so it's like a small family. Compared to the bio major, which I'm pretty sure is the largest major at UNC by a long shot, and enviro sci, which is another gigantic major... It feels a bit apples to oranges

#

I will say though. NCSU is surprisingly green for being such an urban campus

#

I also think that culture at NCSU will be dependent on which college you're part of

#

I've found that natural resources is very homey and friendly across all departments, but I can't speak to CoE, sciences, management, etc.

south lava
#

i guess at unc everyone would be in a lot of similar classes no matter what major

#

do you think it's better to go to state for computer engineering or unc for cs if you weren't planning to transfer or anything considering like every factor

fiery anchor
#

It's definitely more similar at UNC than State, since State will have a lot of major-specific/department-specific versions of classes. But even at UNC there's some grouping depending on what kind of major you're in (humanities, arts, sciences)

south lava
#

i feel like nc state job fair is definitely a lot better for tech side than unc

south lava
#

did you have the 8 person dorms

fiery anchor
#

I was on north campus all 3 years that I dormed, so hall style, not suite style

#

Hall style was pretty nice. Past freshman year, would highly recommend Joyner. Bathroom pods (when people use them appropriately) are absolutely beautiful and peak dorm bathroom experience

fiery anchor
south lava
#

but okay i'll keep that in mind

fiery anchor
#

Nah let me get a pic you don't understand

south lava
#

like i wouldn't mind majoring in any engineering or cs/ds/is

fiery anchor
south lava
fiery anchor
#

each floor has a pod of 4 of these single bathrooms

#

it's fantastic

south lava
#

how many people share that

fiery anchor
#

Ehh I think about 8 rooms maybe

south lava
#

okay that's not terrible

fiery anchor
#

I never had any issues with all the pods in my half being used at once, maybe only once?

#

But I just walked down the hall and used one down there

south lava
#

that's true

fiery anchor
south lava
#

as long as i get a good salary honestly

fiery anchor
#

You'll be fine at either school outcome-wise haha

south lava
#

there's still like so many pros and cons 😭

#

like unc has hella grade deflation i heard

#

i finished chem through cc luckily

fiery anchor
#

Like chem is horrifically weedy

#

But other majors care more about you learning the material than trying to weed

#

Like I got all As and A-s in my upper level bio electives and couldn't bag higher than a B in the core lmaoooo

south lava
south lava
#

okay if you had to pick in my shoes which one would you pick though

#

also which one would probably be easier to transfer to a better school from

fiery anchor
fiery anchor
#

If I had interest in hardware and software I'd go with State
If I had interest in double majoring I'd go to UNC

#

Here’s a trick that won’t help you with the actual interview but will keep you calm leading up to it
Practice and do research and do all the necessary interview prep but otherwise just pretend like you are simply planning on attending the college and are going in for a tour or something. You won’t be able to worry about the interview because apart from your prep, just don’t acknowledge it at all

golden jacinth
#

YAY THANK U FEL

#

i dont like super prepping for interviews cuz i feel like i sound so monotone

unique gale
#

Ofc, it’s just something I heard from my teacher

unique gale
#

Just treat the actual talking like you would in a school presentation

golden jacinth
unique gale
#

Same vocals, hand movements, etc, just very formal

golden jacinth
#

i spoke with some scholars and they said the interview is very casual

unique gale
#

Oh nice

golden jacinth

and its like the last thing of the day while the group stuff is at the start

unique gale
#

Yeah that’s fire

#

You can get comfortable and everything

golden jacinth
#

they feed us too

#

R U GETTING FED

unique gale
#

Nope unfortunately it’s more of a formal thing with time slots and all that

Anyway I do have to go but I hope you do great! You got this
