Does NC state only consider the 1st choice major during EA? S26 has Engineering as 1st choice.

22

I am not sure about that. Good luck to your kiddo!

Thoughts on the email just sent out

Who knows?

25

Just got another email. Good luck to everyone!

Edit: my kid decided to keep taking a nap instead of looking in the portal. So hopefully we get around to it soon. Teenagers.

Good luck to your son! No email for us yet.

Son was just admitted engineering (OOS)- no mention of merit (does that mean there is none?). Very early notification- surprised!

We are in state and havenā€™t heard anything. I donā€™t think itā€™s a uniform in state release.

Son was accepted engineering 1st year, EE intent. We are in state, but it shows oos, so will need to fix that lol. Good luck everyone!!!

Accepted in-state, Honors admit. Honors wasnā€™t super obvious. Itā€™s over on the right hand side of the portal, not in the acceptance letter. 4.0 UW, 1540 sat. Lots of leadership, sports. Applied to park.

Congratulations to those accepted! What a wonderful surprise. For those accepted, do you mind sharing stats, in or OOS and if to applied for park? Not sure if these releases are random or if they are targeting certain types.

34

Merit is extremely rare at NC State. They have a scholarship portal though, so students can apply for those. Mine was admitted into the honors college and wasnā€™t offered any merit.

Congrats! I was curious about Honorsā€¦our kidā€™s page says that they will receive an update about Honors in February, which might be what it said before today. Does anyone else have similar language? Do you think your kidā€™s admission to Honors already is due to being a Park semifinalist? Is that an auto-admit to Honors?

36

Our kid is in-state, 4.0/4.55, 33 ACT (submitted), 11 AP/DE classes (5ā€™s on all APs), almost everything else honors, applied for Honors (nothing indicating one way or the other in the letter or portal today), did not apply for Park.

Congrats as well. Iā€™m not sure, honestly. I feel like I read somewhere that Park finalists are auto admit. I havenā€™t seen anywhere that says semifinalists are, itā€™s still a relatively large group at this stage, like 3-400 so Iā€™m thinking it might not be totally correlated, since thatā€™s such a large group.

I guess I could have googled it before asking :slightly_smiling_face: Looks like all finalists are auto-accepted into Honors, per the website. Not sure if that extends to some semi-finalists or what. Anyway, congrats! Iā€™m sure thatā€™s a nice one to have already!

All good! The whole process is such a mystery everywhere. Awesome your kiddo got in early, hopefully good news on honors in February!
