Hey fellow applicants, I'm beginning to solidify my college list and UNC is way up there. I'm wondering if I can add UNC Chapel Hill to my Common App or is it one of those schools that goes solo with their own application?
Hey there! It's great to hear you're considering UNC Chapel Hill; it's definitely a popular choice for many good reasons. To answer your question, yes, UNC Chapel Hill is accessible through the Common App. You can add it to your list of schools right there in the Common Application system. This means you'll be able to manage your application alongside those for other schools you're applying to, which can be quite convenient. Just make sure to pay close attention to the specific essays and requirements UNC might have within the Common App framework. For example, there will likely be supplemental essays that you'll need to complete for UNC specifically. It's always good to start on those sooner rather than later, especially since they can be pretty thoughtful prompts that require some introspection and drafting.
Best of luck with your application – it's always exciting to put that list together and start envisioning the next big step after high school!
