Why doesn Carolina offer binding early decision?
We decided to drop our binding early decision plan because we want our applicants to approach their college searches thoughtfully. We believe the best searches are the ones in which students focus on which institution best matches their interests and talents, not on which application plan most improves their chances of being admitted. We also hope that our action will encourage you to write a thoughtful application, investigate our campus thoroughly, and make your final college choice without the pressure of an early commitment.
