In addition to considering applicants for fall enrollment, we are looking for students who want to go abroad before enrolling at Carolina through either the Global Gap Year Fellowship or Carolina Global Launch. If you’d like to be considered for either, indicate your interest and submit two additional short answer responses that share your interest in global experiences.
This section of your application is optional. TIP We’re working to build a diverse and inclusive community at Carolina, and we hope you’ll take this opportunity to share how you’d contribute to that community. When you respond, we hope you’ll be yourself and sound like yourself. Your personal essay and short answers give us the chance to hear your voice and see you as a whole person, not just a student. Whether you’re serving as president of an organization, working to put food on the table, developing a new app, playing second string on a team, caring for siblings or grandparents, or starting a non-profit, we can’t wait to learn about you. TIP We know you’re engaged in meaningful activities, and we hope to hear your story through these experiences. We hope you’ll share any achievements, impact, or leadership of which you’re particularly proud. Tell us about how you spend your time outside the classroom and why it’s important to you.
