Flagged Application

Applying to College
1

<p>Does anyone know what it means to have your application flagged? Is it good or bad?</p>

2

<p>Who told you it was flagged?</p>

<p>badddddddd</p>

4

<p>oh no my application isn’t flagged, but I’ve read a lot about flagged applications in other threads and I don’t know what it means.</p>

5

<p>what is that actually and why would college flag your application,besides how would you know?</p>

<p>Is it beacuse they would keep it as a record if you would ever reapply or transfer?</p>

<p>It can depend on why it is flagged. I know that if a coach wants you to attend the college they can ‘flag’ your application.</p>

<p>It could be good, bad, or meaningless. Some hypothetical cases (not UVa cases):</p>

<p>Readers could flag items that schools are required to report out to leadership or the government.</p>

<p>They could flag for special programs (honors programs, scholarships, etc.).</p>

<p>They could flag for bad mid-years or a disciplinary program.</p>

<p>“Flag” is a pretty generic term in admission and it doesn’t necessarily carry a negative or positive connotation.</p>
