Do you think admissions would mind if I chose to write this essay for the Common App under "Topic of your choice"? ]]> University of Virginia fiasco-313964 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-virginia/812756-undergrad-essays.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-virginia/812698-music-supplement-deadline-non-music-majors.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 00:37:38 GMT I want to send in a music supplement even though I am not planning on being a music major or minor. I just received an email from UVA saying that their Arts Supplements are due December 1st for students planning on being Music Majors/minors. Does this mean that I can send my supplement in later since I am technically not intending to major in music? - they did not specify. It would be nice to just be able to turn in my music supplement along with my Common App when Regular Decision rolls around. Anyone know if I HAVE to turn it in by Dec. 1? Thanks!

I was curious if I could get any info if Human Development is a major offered in UVA because I tried looking on their majors offering and didn't know which category this would fall in?? If Human Development is not a major, which major in your opinion would be the closest to this field???


My goal is to become a pediatrician, but I was wondering, if taking Human Development as my Major would hurt my chances for med school because I took a non science major. The thing is I really like Human Development and feel I can excel in it compared to other majors..

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.. ]]> University of Virginia Eagles_for_life-283762 http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-virginia/812351-can-major-human-development-lead-med-school.html http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-virginia/812154-uva-tuition-hikes-coming-more.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 21:44:53 GMT Must be an interesting meeting.
