[RLDU2]

Has anyone gotten an update since their admissions meeting on february 21?

 

[Rowdy]

I interviewed with UNC on 12/19, still havent heard anything back after a full 8 weeks... Did they take this long with anyone else. I'm getting nervous, bcs I kinda had my heart set on UNC.

 

[AnEyeLikeMars]

Has anyone gotten an update since their admissions meeting on february 21?

My app was supposed to go to committee on the 21st as well. I haven't heard anything, but they said it would probably be a week after the meeting before we heard anything.

 

[Chulito]

I interviewed in mid-November and didn't hear back until a couple of days ago (mid-February).

Hearing back within 8 weeks is the exception, not the norm. Most people will take many more weeks than 8 to hear back. I know no one wants to wait that long, but few acceptances are given out before the last few meetings, so expect not to hear much until sometime in April.

And if you're waitlisted, waitlist movement doesn't usually start until after May 15, so it may be a long wait for some of you. But lots of to those waiting to hear from the NC schools!

 

[PHDMD2B]

Too bad no one gave you a shout out on here. This thread has the tendency to forget that ECU even exists. Of course they don't help themselves by being slow a Christmas.😀

[PHDMD2B]

Check off another spot for ECU

 

[Powers]

Has anyone gotten an update since their admissions meeting on february 21?

Nope, still waiting. I called the admissions office and was told it takes "about a week" for an applicant's status page to be updated, so news is imminent...

 

[alphabetty]

Nope, still waiting. I called the admissions office and was told it takes "about a week" for an applicant's status page to be updated, so news is imminent...

And by "status page" you mean something that the admissions office can see, not us, right? There's no page for UNC where we can go to check our status like there is for other schools, is there??

 

[applegreen]

I think that Powers was talking about WFU, not UNC.

 

[alphabetty]

I think that Powers was talking about WFU, not UNC.

Oops. Powers said Feb 21 but I 'heard' Feb 19. Darn. And here I got my hopes all up that UNC info might be forthcoming this week. oh well! 😛

 

[13andcounting]

congrats on your acceptance ee2md. good luck to those waiting on wake forest.

TODAY is the last day that UNC is giving interviews right?? I thought they said that the only interview through February. Can someone tell me if I remember correctly?!?!?

 

[golftrippy]

no, they are interviewing thru this and next week...

 

[profdogg]

Hey, I'm new here to SDN. Quick question - since WFUSM is private, does the chances for an OOS applicant like myself improve for getting pulled off the waitlist?

 

[AnEyeLikeMars]

Did anyone hear from Wake Forest today? My committee meeting was the 21st and they said to expect something by today. Thanks

 

[celltech2000]

Thanks PHDMD2B! Your acceptance letter will be coming soon!

Good luck to all of you!

 

[drawkward]

Hey, I'm new here to SDN. Quick question - since WFUSM is private, does the chances for an OOS applicant like myself improve for getting pulled off the waitlist?

Wake accepts about 40-45% OOS as compared to about 10% at UNC, so your chances aren't bad.

 

[CTtarheel]

Wake accepts about 40-45% OOS as compared to about 10% at UNC, so your chances aren't bad.

Wake still shows a definite in-state preference, which they blatantly lie about. Being in state definitely will not help you at Wake, but it's not nearly as big of a deal as it is at a state school.

 

[profdogg]

eeesh, what else have they lied about? My WL letter said that 30-50% of WLers get offers "when all the dust is settled."

Truth or shenanigans?

 

[13andcounting]

truth. There is significant movement on the wake waitlist. I believe close to half of the 2nd year class got in off the waitlist and a third of the first year class. I hope this helps. good luck with wake!

 

[Vincir]

Good luck and positive thoughts to everyone who may come under consideration today at UNC 😱 😀

 

[medpro]

Last year, Wake accepted a total of 257 applicants of which 72% were OOS. Since there are only 114 spots, many of the applicants came off the waitlist.

[sud]

How many more Mondays must we suffer?

 

[Vincir]

How many more Mondays must we suffer?

Well even in the worst case scenario, I can't imagine simple acceptances and rejections will last more than a month and half at most? So maybe 3 Mondays tops?

 

[urmd2007]

I'm so excited!!!😀 😀 😀 👍 👍 😀 😀 😀

 

[panther42]

Congrats again, urmd! Are you leaning towards Duke or UNC?

 

[takeachanceonme]

urmd2007-- congrats on the duke acceptance!


hopefully that spirit of acceptance will be granted from UNC on this monday too!

 

[panther42]

anybody get a call?

 

[13andcounting]

nope... not yet. hopefully we all will today!!


.... bump

 

[urmd2007]

Congrats again, urmd! Are you leaning towards Duke or UNC?

I'm not sure...waiting on financial aid

Waitlisted 🙁
Interviewed Feb 14th, Committee met on the 21st

 

[RLDU2]

Does anyone know when UNC, Wake and ECU are done with interviews?

I think that UNC and Wake hold a fair amount of their acceptances until after they are done with interviews. Can anyone verify or negate this????
