2016-2017 University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
How was the interview generally? I saw we start in the waiting room in Bondurant. Any way you'd be willing to comment on the schedule/agenda? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
We toured the school and had lunch before my interviews. The two interviews were relaxed, and lasted between 45 minutes and an hour. Both were open app. The med students come in and out all day (There are cookies in Bondurant). They are really friendly and talking to them helped calm my nerves. I finished up late afternoon. Loved the school!
 
Hey all, I am a current re-applicant to UNC, and not yet had an interview invite. I am a bit nervous and surprised considering that I did interview last year. I was recently accepted to Brody and am wondering if that hurt my shot at getting an II at UNC. I am obviously thankful and excited about Brody as well but I was hoping to at least re-interview at UNC this year.

How would that hurt you? And even if it would, UNC has no way of knowing that you have an acceptance elsewhere at this stage.

No it won't, but ECU will be able to see in February which medical schools have given you offers...according to the adcom people on SDN.

Schools find out about multiple acceptances in February: "In the February of each application cycle, schools will have access to the Multiple Acceptance Report, which will show them which of their accepted applicants are holding acceptances from other schools."

BTW I'm in the same boat as you (interviewed last year, haven't heard back yet this year). Complete towards end of August. They mention the re-application process takes longer, but I am not sure how long.

In da same boat
 
For accepted applicants is it ok to electronically sign our signature or do we have to mail anything in to indicate our intent to enroll? I just want to be absolutely sure. Anyone know ?
 
Just a screenshot of the electronic signature ? Or print, sign, scan and send ?
 
Accepted as well. Interviewed early oct. Does anyone know when a Facebook page will be made ? Unc is definitely my top choice so I will be attending.
How early in Oct did you interview? Interviewed the second week and haven't heard anything yet

I just electronically signed the form on the portal and paid the deposit. Haven't received the official letter in the mail yet, so I'm not sure if that contains something different to send in...

Still waiting for mail too
 
Have they filled feb too? Just wondering number of spots left.
 
Any idea what we should be thinking??
I interviewed on 9/27 and don't know what to think with people who interviewed in October receiving acceptances already!

I interviewed on the second day! I think lots of factors like non traditional, etc, play a role. If you look at last years thread people who interviewed in September found out in December. Rooting for you!!
 
Anyone no longer able to access secondary print-out via the portal? I am under impression I was able to access it earlier in cycle
 
Checked this morning and there are 10 interview dates left in total.
OHH NOOOO!!!!!!! Has anyone not received any news pre-II yet?!? :boom:
Also does anyone know the earliest date that they'll send out rejection?
 
Does this school sent out rejection letters? Complete 8/25 and haven't heard anything. Should I give up on this school? 🙁
 
So... am I correct in making the conclusion that if we have not gotten an interview yet, we will be rejected?

+1
and I think that you're correct cuz there's not much interview dates left and they started filling them with re-apps

On one hand I hope you're wrong because I submitted my secondary late and feel like it would be unfair for them to take my money but fill up all their interview dates before even getting around to looking at my application. On the other hand....you're probably right. 🙁
