A Few Notes For
Your Application
§
If you took the
DE classes, make sure you list NC State as another college you attended – you
do not need to request transcripts from NC State.
§
If you check yes
to any of the background questions, make sure you supply a very complete
explanation. Also, count on your application being delayed. If in doubt, mark
yes. You do not want to have something show up on a background check that you
do not mark here.
§
Make sure you
note the courses you are taking this semester. If you are planning on taking
first term summer classes, note this.
