Sleverett Posted January 19, 2021 Posted January 19, 2021 Hi All! Posting this for folks who are waiting to hear back from UNC. This is my second round applying to their program, and the first time it took forever for them to get back to me(think late April). Hoping to see some post of people receiving admissions notices pretty soon! Good luck!
steste Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) I’m waiting too and it’s killing me lol I just received an email from the Student Aid office saying my FAFSA was received but that’s it. Have you attended one of the sessions? I was wondering if they mentioned when people should be hearing back during these meetings...? Good luck to us both!!? Edited January 23, 2021 by steste
Sleverett Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 I attended a session a couple years ago, but the website says decision will roll out anywhere between late January and late March.

Sounds like people should definitely start hearing back this week then. Fingers crossed for us both!! When did you submit?
Sleverett Posted January 28, 2021 Author Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) I submitted Dec 14th! Edited January 28, 2021 by Sleverett

thr7185 Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 I applied and am waiting as well - sigh. @steste the note on the 600 applications so far shook me! Good to know, though.

I am bad at waiting for decisions and trying to be hopeful (I applied for adv standing) but am stressing myself out haha Sure! I mentioned my education (BSW) and the work I have done since graduating. I am a family/disaster case manager but have worked in several different counties in my state due to the damage on homes caused by natural disasters, and also worked with those areas local officials, plus some cases required communication with a few state officials. I also mentioned my other work within my agency, the programs I lead, and how I organized our food pantry during covid times. I also mentioned any trainings I have completed. 3 recs: all from people that I have worked with, 1 in my agency and 2 with different organizations. I did not focus on my education as much because I graduated a few years ago and wanted to explain the work I have done since then. Hope this helps! Edited February 3, 2021 by steste
icedcaramelmacchiato Posted February 7, 2021 Posted February 7, 2021 Hi everyone! I am also waiting- applied December 15th for the 2 year full time program. Fingers crossed
kaleighq Posted February 7, 2021 Posted February 7, 2021 I applied Dec 8 for the full-time 2 year program and am still waiting. Someone from admissions said to expect a decision in late Feb to Mid-March so I really dont know what to expect! SeanMendez and icedcaramelmacchiato 1 1

kayakanyk Posted February 7, 2021 Posted February 7, 2021 Hi! I finished my application on November 1 for the 2-yr program and am still waiting on a response. Really hoping it comes out sooner rather than later!
klmca Posted February 8, 2021 Posted February 8, 2021 so relieved that i found this thread to help ameliorate my jangled nerves while responses are sent out! i'm a non-traditional student who submitted my application for the 2-year program on 11/16. this is my second round of applying for grad programs (not UNC-CH), and i have all fingers and toes crossed. good luck, everyone! icedcaramelmacchiato 1
SeanMendez Posted February 16, 2021 Posted February 16, 2021 Do acceptances only come out on Wednesdays?
