I'm planning to apply to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Could someone point out the important application deadlines? It would really help to know what timeline I should be working with for my application.
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC Chapel Hill) has the following deadlines for undergraduate admission:
- Early Action: The application deadline for Early Action is October 15, and decisions are typically released by the end of January. This is a non-binding option which gives you the opportunity to receive an early decision while still considering other colleges.
- Regular Decision: The deadline for Regular Decision is January 15, and decisions are usually released by the end of March.
For both Early Action and Regular Decision, the financial aid application deadline is March 1, so make sure you've completed your FAFSA and CSS Profile by that date to be eligible for need-based aid.
There are also some additional deadlines to keep in mind once you've been accepted:
- Enrollment Deposit: If admitted, you will need to submit your enrollment deposit by May 1 to secure your spot in the incoming class.
- Housing Application: The housing application deadline is usually in mid-June, but you will need to verify this on the UNC Chapel Hill housing website.
Remember, these are the general deadlines but individual programs might have different deadlines and additional requirements. Always double-check the specific deadlines on the university's website and any communications you receive from the university.
