unctomsw Posted February 18, 2020 Author Share Posted February 18, 2020 Has anyone who applied to the full-time, regular standing program heard back yet? I'm not expecting anything until next week but wanted to see if they'd started sending them out yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knl7 Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I applied to the two year full-time program and have not heard back either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

furmanpaladin Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Another applicant to the full-time 2-year program here! I’d love some advice... I recently was admitted to another school who said that they needed me to accept or decline their offer by March 6. However, UNC-CH has said that they may not get all offers out until mid-March. I emailed the assistant dean of admissions at CH (as the administrative assistant over the phone told me to do), but I have not gotten an email reply back. Should I write him again? Or assume he saw it? I want to be sure they know but also don’t want to pester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would wait a couple weeks and see what happens with UNC, and then, if you don't get an email response by then, email/call again about hearing your decision sooner. March 6 is close to the end of their decision timeline anyways. You could also send another email sooner than that because this is a big deal for you and it doesn't really matter if you're bothering them because you need a response.

hellouncmsw Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 I would wait until next week and call the office Wednesday or Thursday. That way, hopefully, they would answer by Friday the 28th or Monday the 3rd at the latest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I received an email saying that was a mistake and they need the response by March 16th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unctomsw Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 Someone I know from undergrad just got accepted to the regular-standing, full-time program, so I guess those emails are starting to go out! It's making me even more anxious though and I just hope I hear back soon. Good luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My rule of thumb when sending professional emails is typically wait five to seven days, unless we are talking interoffice emails or emails where a deadline is given. Less than that time is understandable that they have not responded yet as people are busy. More than seven days going by means they might have forgotten about or put it too far down the list. I think it is important to be assertive and show your needs are important too, but as you say, without pestering them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great stats! No wonder you were accepted. When did you apply? Did they provide a scholarship? I'm still waiting to hear back from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
