<p>Just to update…I saw the Washington Post article about state universities accepting more from OOS, and that they included UNC along with UVA, etc. But two days later they ran a correction about UNC! They indicated that their information about an increase in OOS acceptance rates and enrollment was incorrect, and that the 18% cap had not changed, nor would it be changing. </p>
<p>Our son is a sophmore at UNC and loves it! He had extremely competitive numbers/activities/leadership positions and got a likely letter in December of his senior year of HS. We know a number of students from our area (DC region) who did not get in with very strong applications. It is still very difficult from this area to get into UNC. </p>
<p>He is majoring in journalism and political science and has just been accepted into the business school as well. Couldn’t be happier!</p>
