UNC has offered admission to more than 6,200 candidates from the record number of first-year applications to the state’s flagship university, according to the school.
These candidates were selected from the more than 17,000 applications that were submitted before the early-notification deadline.
Overall, from the first and second deadlines, nearly 32,000 applications for admission were submitted to UNC; that marks 10 consecutive years of record applications.
A statement from the university says admitted students hail from 96 North Carolina counties, 47 states, and 30 countries – including the US. Thirteen percent will be the first generation of their family to graduate from college.
Decisions for second-deadline applicants will be released by the end of March. The University expects 4,000 new first-year students to enroll in August.
