No one applies from our private.

Everyone applies from our private. (see how this works)

Our private has AP classes, so that doesn’t explain lack of interest. Michigan, UVA and UNC, the UCs, maybe Wisconsin are the hot public schools.

lol thanks for the input. Did you do a survey? Can you link us the results. lol

I’ve been waiting for this too lol funny how the posters claiming “nobody applies” can’t name the school or verify their claim in any way.

Name the school

It’s actually several. Please identify a local top private that has sends multiple kids to UGA.

You made the claim. You name your school. Oh, and post your source too.

NP here and Tar Heel. The law states that any incoming freshman class that begins in the fall must be capped at 18% OOS. OOS scholarship athletes do NOT count towards the 18%. It’s 18, not 8.

IF an incoming freshmen class in any given fall has more than 18.0%, Chapel Hill can be sanctioned by the general assembly. It actually happens more frequently than you would think. Chapel Hill can ask for the sanction to be waived.

The admissions rate of OOS in any given year will depend on the total number of applications which varies from year to year. The more applications, the lower the acceptance rate.

UGA just reflects the value of the school for in-state kids whose parents are not going to pay full freight for a private or out of state public that they would have in the past.

UNC takes 18% OOS, not 8

18 is correct, but that also includes all recruited athletes. So, the space left for non-athletes is pretty small. It's 100% lottery for OOS kids.

No, the oos acceptance rate is NOT 18 percent.

I don’t understand why people get this wrong . The freshman class at unc is 18 percent oos stidents. The oos acceptance rate is about 8 percent.

Cite?

Explains both the 18 percent cap on percentage of class that can be from oos, and the 8 percent oos acceptance rate. https://admissionslawsuit.unc.edu/about/admissions/

18% is across the UNC system of schools- not just CH.

No, it only applies to Chapel Hill, State, App, UNCC, and UNCW. Many schools got a waiver because they were experiencing declining enrollment of instate so they wanted to accept more OOS.

Here is the law, with the list of schools that have 18, 25, 35 and 50% caps. https://www.northcarolina.edu/apps/policy/doc.php?id=789

Still waiting. Were you really just trolling?

lol thanks for the input. Did you do a survey? Can you link us the results. lol

I’ve been waiting for this too lol funny how the posters claiming “nobody applies” can’t name the school or verify their claim in any way.

Literally look at the “top 4” privates in Baltimore, which is where I live. Bryn Mawr, Gilman, McDonogh and Park — not a single kid to UGA last year, but a few to Ga Tech. You can find the senior pages online if you have more time to waste attempting to “discredit” me.

The claim was no students applied. You seem to be referencing where students enrolled, which is clearly not the same thing.

Yes, no students from the schools my kids attend of those four applied. However, you want demonstrable proof and I can’t provide that. The fact that not a single kid from four different private schools chose UGa certainly belies the argument that it is “hot,” at least at private schools.

Next time maybe don’t make claims you can’t backup. Secondly, your sample size of four schools isn’t statistically significant.
