Calling all UNC Kenan-Flagler Applicants

Great news, PaulK!
So which b-school are you going to attend then???

Admitted to UNC! (no money offered yet).

I was also placed in the waiting list...What to do next?

What happens to the scholarship money offered to admits who decide to go to some other school? Does everybody else in the list moves up? If an admit with 20K$ decides not to take it will it be offered to an admit with 19K$. I guess it depends on school and type of scholarship but is there a "more often that not" process.

Thanks nervous. Between Vandy and UNC, it's a tough choice. I started pursuing an MBA program because of Owen, but the visit to UNC was far and away the most impressive I had. I guess I'll wait to see about potential scholarship, but with UNC's strong real estate program I'm leaning that way.

If you opt for one of your other admits, can you request transfer of your fellowship?

THAT would be awesome!

Bdevil, where did you see that? I just finished scrolling through the KF website but couldn't find anything, and the letter didn't mention anything about scholarships.

PaulK,

Check out the web address below - it's a description of all fellowships available. It's not explicit, but I think, based on what I see there, that the "Premier Fellows" are notified early, but everyone else receives notification in 7-10 days. In fact, it said somewhere that everyone will be notified positive or negative regarding scholarships.

"Monday, February 14th?" . Thats the second time they have missed a date - Sounds like they need a new calendar. I can see Feb 14 isn't a monday in 2007-2010.
Hopefully this means they are forgiving with applicants making small mistakes as well!

"Fellowship decisions mailed 7-10 days after decision release for each deadline". Thanks Bdevil, hopefully us non-premier folks will receive some good news in a couple of weeks.

And here i thought "Applicant Preferred Name was your legal name

westsider, are you pretty well set on staying in Seattle, or are you considering Owen or UNC seriously?

Funny, I can't answer for westwider, but I actually live in Oregon. My wife and I were just planning out the logistics of a potential cross-country move tonight.

I visited Chapel Hill a few years back and thought it was fantastic. Then, as I started to narrow down the schools I wanted to apply to, I found Kenan-Flagler was a great fit. So I followed through, visited the school, and the visit was fantastic.

Mostly, just ready to try something new, but not quite ready to live in a big city, so Vanderbilt, UNC, and Duke seemed like the best choices.

To be fair, I just checked out your info Bdevil, and I'm sad to hear you're a Beaver. We're Ducks all the way. I'll still be rooting for your baseball team though...I don't know why they're deciding they need to start one at UO now.

Got an accept with the condition that I take the Analytical Skills Workshop before classes start.

That's awesome. In Oregon there's not much choice, if you want to be an engineer you have to be a Beaver!

My wife and I just moved to North Carolina a little over 2 months ago. We chose NC because, other than the ridiculous summers, it's actually reminiscent of Western Oregon. Mountains (at least close by), beach (much better than our coast), green, and generally low key. We're enjoying ourselves so far. So have you decided where you'll set up shop yet?

Congrats on the accept! See you at ASW!

Does anyone know how the rules for In-State tuition apply?

I applied RD3 here so I'm not going to hear back until mid March, but if you attend are you out of state for year 1 and then qualify in-state for year 2?

Most schools this doesn't make a huge difference, but at UNC it makes a very significant difference.

Just wondering how that works.
