Hi! Sure thing!

Here is my timeline!

I was waitlisted March 2nd. TBH I was pretty surprised about this. I thought I would get in.
I accepted my waitlist position and some professional quantitative enrichment courses I’d taken, but no new scores or job updates. I had been promoted the month before and reminded them of that.
I was accepted off the waitlist on March 23rd.
Offered a 60 K scholarship on March 30th, I then reached out to schedule a call to chat about scholarship matching with other schools, a new job promotion, and how CoVid 19 had been affecting my family.

I never got a call back but Got an email that my fellowship was increased to 100 K on April 3rd and that I’d been given a deposit extension!

The whole thing is pretty bizarre. I don’t know why I was waitlisted, and I’ve never gotten a call through out this process, but am likely going to UNC this fall as this covers 90% of tuition

That sounds very interesting. Did you interview at Kenan-Flagler?

Also, if you need any help in deciding between schools, I suggest you make a new topic in the following forum.

I’m anxious! But going off the R2 Clearadmit wire updates, the admit notifications seem to trickle out today then over the next 2 days and like our interviews, we will get an email to check the portal.

Good luck to you!

Not exactly.
There was another letter at the bottom of the admit letter.
That letter had the scholarship details.

Hey Folks!

Anyone interviewed within the last two weeks? Hoping to find out when I can expect to hear back from the admissions committee?

Hey,

Congratulations on the admit!

I was just curious to find out if you had mentioned the need for scholarship anywhere in the application or during the interview?

Nope. The only time I mentioned scholarship was after the admit when I talked about the idea of matching. I didn’t even get into specifics.
