Not advanced standing, just the regular full-time. They contacted me. 14 hours ago, bswtomsw1 said: do you mind sharing your stats? when did you apply? Sure! I believe I applied mid-December. I've done AmeriCorps in-state for a couple years after graduating with a 3.4 gpa from a top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did they contact you about, if you don’t mind me asking? Also what is a top 10? ALSO: anyone else’s starting to freak out a little about the competition this year or is it just me? Apparently the applicant pool doubled after they removed the GRE. Edited January 31, 2019 by honeynut Freaking out on the inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, top 10 meaning top 10 university. They contacted me about my interest in the program and potential funding opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea that the applicant pool doubled, I didn't include my GRE scores because they weren't stellar but decent for UNC, but my GPA and CV were pretty good. Is anyone else applying straight out of undergrad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suhlast Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I applied on Nov 1st for the two year program and have not heard back yet.

Shadylane427 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I sent in my application on Dec 17th, final LOR sent in on dec 19th. I applied regular standing and have not heard back yet. I emailed admissions last week and they said regular standing should start finding out mid Feb through mid March. calmchili and nklr25 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeynut Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Seems like they are slowly rolling out acceptances.
