I am currently on waitlist and trying to figure out my chances of getting in.

I know there is data which shows only 12% get in but it does not make sense to me. Total seats are 270, why would Kenan Flagler keep 349 on waitlist and admit 44 form that waitlist?

Anyone who was on wailist and was accepted for R-1 and R-2?

Please don't be terrified by the numbers(that's my personal view) of the 349 kept on the waitlist I guess a lot of them just chose to move out of the waitlist as they had other admits, these numbers are deceiving, I think the people admitted were the ones who showed intent to join UNC KFBS. Hope this helps.

Just got my binder today. Nice quality and all, but no mention of scholarship/fellowship upon quick inspection. Either I didn't get any more than the fellowship they mentioned on the phone or it is coming later. I am surprised the terms of the award I already know about weren't provided though.

In R1, accepted students receiving any type of scholarship were notified via email. So for R3, if you are awarded any type of scholarship or fellowship, you will hear something TODAY, via email. I seem to recall it was later in the afternoon the Forum Board began lighting up with input from those receiving an award. If you her nothing by 6PM EST, you can assume you didn't receive anything. I'm not 100% certain about the last statement, but believe it's fairly accurate. Hope this helps.

"For Waitlisted friends" :
I got admit after being waitlisted twice(Applied in ER and got admit with R2).
I guess, it's important to convey that UNC is still on your priority list. In addition, showing your understanding of program and showing that you have enough understanding of UNS to hit the ground running, works in your favour. Obviously, any promotion or GMAT improvement is great., I had promotions, but no GMAT hike. Good Luck and don't loose the hope.

Folks,
I need a little help here. I am an "international student", working as IT consultant, with 6 yr of exp. Big firms and over 3 years of exp in US.
I want to make a transition to Finance(Non I-Banking is fine with me). I got an admit to UNC after a long wait and recently got admit from Mccombs too. Obviously, I am confused. Can you share your thoughts about my prospects of transitioning into Finance with these 2 schools. I found them similar in many of the parameters.
Please consider that I am an international student.

I am holding out hope that your statements are not true. I hope that UNC is still sending scholarship information. But I am losing hope quickly.

Pretty sure the hope is gone by this point :evil:

It was surprisingly quiet for this thread though - was there really only one member here who got an R3 scholarship? They must have given the majority out in the earlier rounds.

Wow, I'm going to call tomorrow. If I really didn't get anything then my choice between schools just got easier.

Yep, I called. All scholarship dollars are out. Also said they are overextended and it isn't likely that more dollars will be given. Sad, I had high hopes that something would work out.
