Question: write a second paragraph about the admissions and application process of UNC using some of the following "• 19% acceptance rate • SAT Range (1370-1530), ACT Range (30-34) • In-State Acceptance (43.1%), out of state (8.2%) • Cap of 18% of out of state students • Look for applicants that demonstrate “intellect, talent, curiosity and creativity; leadership, kindness and courage; as well as honesty, perseverance and perspective.”" "• Most important: course rigor, test scores, essays, extracurriculars, recommendations, talent, character, and state residency • Important: GPA, class rank, and volunteering • Considered: legacy status, first-generation status, race/ethnicity • 17% of students are legacy students, it’s not an automatic in, but they say it’s “a leg up”" "• UNC tries to keep certain numbers/percentages of minorities, however in recent years there has been a decline in diversity, they no longer have an office of Diversity and Inclusion, they expect this to be evident in quality of life on campus. " "• There is differences in application into different majors. You get accepted into UNC but not the college where your major is offered. You have to first complete a year of general education studies before you can declare a major. Then you have to apply to the college you want to, for me the college of business (Kenan Flagler), which means you are not guaranteed to get into the college you want to at UNC. Kenan Flagler has an acceptance rate of 36.9%. For a select number of students there is assured enrollment into Kenan Flagler on acceptance into UNC" "• Transfer acceptance rate is 34%, you go straight into your desired college, use common app, must submit High School and college transcripts, must submit SAT or ACT, 800 transfer students a year, 2 letters of recomaendation • Letter of recommendation from counselor and a teacher" "• Early Action-October 15th (non-binding), get decision by January 31st, Regular decision is due January 15th get decision by March 31st, Enrollment Confirmation deadline is May 1st"
The admissions process at UNC Chapel Hill is highly competitive, with an overall acceptance rate of just 19%. North Carolina residents have a significant advantage, with an in-state acceptance rate of 43.1% compared to only 8.2% for out-of-state applicants, due in part to a strict 18% cap on out-of-state freshman enrollment. The university seeks students who not only demonstrate strong academic credentials—such as rigorous coursework, high SAT (1370–1530) and ACT (30–34) scores, and impressive GPAs—but also showcase intellect, talent, curiosity, creativity, leadership, kindness, courage, and perseverance. Beyond academics, UNC places a premium on essays, extracurricular involvement, letters of recommendation, and personal character, while also considering factors like legacy (with 17% of students being legacy admits), first-generation status, and state residency. Notably, admission into UNC does not guarantee entry into certain competitive majors; for example, business hopefuls must complete general education courses before applying separately to the Kenan-Flagler Business School, which has its own admission process and an acceptance rate of 36.9%. Application deadlines differ for Early Action (October 15th), Regular Decision (January 15th), and the enrollment confirmation deadline is May 1st. Transfer applicants use the Common App and must provide both high school and college transcripts, standardized test scores, and two recommendations, with transfer acceptance standing at around 34%.
