<p>I completely agree about being cautious when listening to an anonymous blogger; I have warned others on here about it many times especially when decisions come out and those rejected or deferred start trashing UNC. They have done it every year and and I feel certain they will do it again this year.</p>
<p>You are free to believe what you want to. I never said early applications were significantly up, just that they were up from what I have been told. I did however say that overall applications were up.</p>
<p>I think my track record here speaks for itself. </p>
<p>Remember that everything is not always disclosed on the admissions website-just enough to keep you all in the loop and not feel forgotten which incidentally is a big improvement over years gone by.</p>
<p>A very wise man once told me that God gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason…through the years I have learned that it was very good advice.</p>
<p>I sincerely wish you well in the admissions process.</p>
