NC State 2024 Admission Thread

@collegewon I am not in expert but I figured last years stats might help you. The average GPA unweighted was 3.69-3.96 and weighted was 4.15-4.47.

You can find last years stats here https://admissions.ncsu.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/8/2019/09/2019-UGA-FYF-FINAL.pdf

Do I have a chance of getting in though?

@collegewon. Everyone that applies has a chance. Your SAT is within range but your gpa if it is weighted appears a bit low. However NCSU does holistic review so they will consider letter of rec and essays along with other factors like county and class rank. Some majors are more difficult than others. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks man appreciate it. Need all the support I can get

Anyone know when to expect decisions. I know it’s “BY Jan 20” but might they come sooner?

@sunnyschool Actually it’s by Jan 30th. Last year they came out on Friday, Jan 25th. If they follow a similar pattern results will be released on Friday, Jan 24th.

Hard to wait, my son is losing interest. He is starting to discuss dorms and roommates at Appalachian. I think news may come from State too late.

Has anyone noticed that their checklist dates changed?

Some of our now say received in Dec, info posted above it says " While some of these dates appear to be after our deadlines, your application was not negatively affected. We will communicate directly with you if we need more information to process your application."

Maybe this means they are looking at info? Thoughts?

The dates were also not correct on my D20’s portal and had the same message. She is a Park Semi Finalist and received her acceptance on December 20th.

I called them about this and the person I talked to said it just takes them a while to get all of the info onto the portal. They had the info in their system from when it was originally sent in by the student-the dates we are seeing are just when they finally transferred the data from whatever system they use to each individual portal. It doesn’t mean anything in terms of admission.

I was accepted to App State too. It is a great university, I will be going there if I am rejected from State

What are my chances at NC State University as an in-state resident for management information technology major with a 3.39 weighted GPA and 1390 SAT?

@CollegeWon I already gave you stats and info in replies #40 & #42. Only a few more weeks to wait. Hang in there.

I applied for Statistics with a 33 ACT 3.78 unweighted GPA and 4.15 GPA at an OOS Illinois catholic school where regular religion courses are required lowering GPA. NCSU is my top school for the price and opportunity and I hope I get in!

based on past year does anyone know what time decisions are usually released?

Is an email sent out to notify about any application status changes or do you need to keep logging in and checking yourself?

@avahelen , The past two years, the decisions came out the third Friday in January. There will be five Fridays this year, though- not sure if that changes anything.
