I’m an OoS COD applicant and I’m pretty sure I got accepted! My portal changed this morning, and the notification date section went away, but I figured the decision was coming soon anyways, because they said late December notification.
I tried the AED thing in the UnityID Portal that the other threads were talking about, and it told me ‘congratulations on your admission to NC State’ so I really hope that’s true, and I actually get in when the real letter is posted in WolfPAW. It mentioned nothing about an interview, so I’m assuming it’s full acceptance.
