<p>Waitlisted- sorry I was late posting I just got back from work. </p>
<p>Congrats if you got in, especially to McIntire.</p>
<p>Congratulations to everyone! I am beyond excited. I cannot wait to live in the beautiful Charlottesville (:</p>
<p>Hi Everyone!</p>
<p>Congratulations to those of you who have been accepted to UVA! And good luck to ALL of you in your future endeavors!</p>
<p>I am actually a rising third year at UVA, and am looking for a female transfer student interested in living in the transfer community (Johnson, Malone, and Weedon) next year. I am aware that the only housing available right now for next year is at Copeley. If interested, please email me at <a href=“mailto:yjc4af@virginia.edu”>yjc4af@virginia.edu</a> for more details! </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I applied under the GAA from NVCC but was waitlisted. Since their offices are closed until Monday, have any of you ever come across this problem? I double checked to make sure I met all the requirements. The only thing is that I would be finishing the requirements this semester but Transfermer said they would still reward the GAA if that were the case. I’m just trying to figure out what happened :</p>
<p>What? The only housing is in copley??? How many spaces are open? And where do I find this out?</p>
<p>Accepted by UNC but waitlisted by UVA. Interesting</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Misconception. First of all, the whole 86% in-state thing for UNC is only for freshmen. Second of all, it is my experience that by large a different caliber of student gets into UVA than UNC. For transfers this might not be the case but for freshman admissions it seemed like the people I knew that got into UVA always got into UNC as well if they applied (both OOS), but UNC admits did not always get into UVA.</p>
<p>As to available housing, I do not agree that the only housing is Copeley. I am in another on-grounds place and last year there were spots open in Lambeth, Bice, et al. </p>
<p>It is my rec that if you can’t get into Lambeth or Bice you should look off Grounds.</p>
<p>We need to make a Facebook group!! I AM SO EXCITED. </p>
<p>@Knights, when did you apply for housing? Do you know if most transfers are able to get on grounds housing? I’m only going to be entering as a second year so I want to live on grounds for a year at least.</p>
<p>I got into both and I’m out of state for UNC (still waiting on W&M). What were your stats?</p>
<p>Also, where is the best off campus housing site? I heard (from my uva friends) that no sophomores live on campus.</p>
<p>hey everyone 
for future anxious transfers-</p>
<p>I got my check on wednesday morning (April 25th) and was waitlisted applying to the A-school. I never got any financial aid to-do’s on SIS but that’s most likely because I turned everything in. Honestly, after reading this entire blog and people’s amazing stats, I’m so surprised and grateful that I was even put on the waitlist. I’m a rising third year currently at GMU with a 3.2 gpa. I guess they saw something in me they liked, and I’m gonna do all I can to get straight A’s this semester to get in. </p>
<p>Congrats to everyone who got accepted! from what i’ve read, everyone really deserved it. you guys are an amazing bunch</p>
<p>I’ll throw in that everyone I know who had a to-do was admitted. Most people I know who was waitlisted did not have a financial aid to-do list.</p>
<p>I received financial aid to-do’s and was admitted. The previous year I applied I was not given to-do’s, even once on the waitlist.</p>
<p>hey all,</p>
<p>haven’t posted on cc before, but been stalking this and USC’s page for a few weeks now. So here goes, to help all of you out:</p>
<p>I applied as a transfer (incoming third-year, 60+ credits) to the Commerce School (McIntire). accepted. after clicking on the “Accept/Decline Decision” button at the bottom of the status update, I did indeed see that I got in to the Commerce Program (heck yes, still jazzed/shocked by this).</p>
<p>I attended high school in southern California, applied in my senior year of high school but was rejected outright for freshman entry, no waitlist.
Currently, i attend an out-of-state 4year college outside Boston, MA.
GPA: 3.6 with 3.8 in most recent semester and rising this current semester. I founded a business from the bottom up in my freshman year of college, made about $3k of profit, and donated it all to charity (this was my core essay in my application).
Moderate amount of extra-curriculars (aimed to show leadership in the ones i talked about, as I am in full belief that leadership is what high-profile colleges look for).</p>
<p>I DID have the deposit thing on my status page before my decision was available for view, as well as the To-Do’s list.
Also, it may be worth noting that both my parents attended UVA (both in McIntire also). When i applied the first time (after high school), i was told that basically I would be receiving in-state status for legacy, as out-of-state standards are higher (sadly that didn’t matter the first time around). Applying as a transfer, I am unsure how this affected my chances (could range from ‘not at all’ up to ‘very important’). Neither of my parents ever gave huge sums of money to UVA in order for me to get in (yes I’m a legacy, no I’m not that kind of legacy).</p>
<p>Anyways, I accepted this morning and am ecstatic to continue my education in Charlottesville. Wahoowa!!!</p>
<p>Also, gonna have to start working on that housing problem (“we cannot guarantee on-campus housing…bla bla bla”)</p>
<p>Interesting! I am so happy that you made it in this time around! </p>
<p>@berries, I still think the financial aid to-dos theory is somewhat correct. I think that having them is definitely a good sign; however, I don’t think not having them means you’re rejected. But if you want an early sign, to-dos are good but don’t lose hope if you don’t have them because it doesn’t mean rejected because I have seen a few here who have gotten in without to-dos… but everyone with todos was accepted.</p>
<p>@HomeBound92 You can directly contact UVA Housing Division at (434) 924-6873 or via email <a href=“mailto:housing@virginia.edu”>housing@virginia.edu</a>. When I visited Housing Office last week to find a female student who might be interested in living in the transfer community next year, I was told that the only on-grounds housing available at this point through the Housing Division is at Copeley. </p>
<p>If any female transfer student is interested in living in the transfer community (Johnson, Malone, and Weedon) and have her own furnished single room, please let me know. Thanks!</p>
<p>My financial aid is not completed yet because my parents did not file their taxes yet,they’re self employed…didn’t hav eanything on my to do list. still on the waitlist. I do plan on submitting it by april 30th–would it put me higher on the waitlist if I submit it? The to do list theory is quite interesting in that regard. congrats to everyone who got in.</p>

<p>I don’t remember exactly but it wasn’t until the middle of May at the earliest. It would stun me if most transfers aren’t able to get on grounds housing.</p>
<p>Again, if you are placed in somewhere like Hereford, Copeley, Faulkner, or JMW, it is my recommendation that you try to find somewhere off Grounds to live. All of these places are pretty far away and you can almost certainly find an off Grounds apartment closer to classes. I live in one of these places this year and it’s somewhat of a pain to have to wait on the bus to get to/from Grounds. The buses are great but I’m glad I’m living off Grounds in a better location next year.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>First, they are called second years. ;)</p>
<p>Second, that’s definitely not true. Plenty of second years and above live on Grounds, although lots of people do live off Grounds as well.</p>
<p>Third, best location would depend on your major, price range, and personality.</p>
<p>Most people live on Jefferson Park Avenue (JPA) or the Rugby Road/Corner area. JPA is cheaper and a little quieter from what I understand but the Rugby area is closer to Central Grounds/a lot of social events (fraternities, bars, Corner restaurants, Madison House, etc.)</p>
<p>Now the difficult decision of NYU vs UVA…</p>
<p>Hmm…</p>
<p>Any mcintire people looking to live with other mcintire people?</p>
<p>I graduated high school in 2010 which a mediocre gpa of 2.6 and now i am starting taking classes at cc in chicago. I am planning on transferring as sophmore to uva in fall 2013. I know i don’t have alot of good grades or resumes but can you tell what i need or how i acn increase my chances other than completing all the prerequisites in order to get in uva?</p>
<p>ive been accepted, but what if my grades this semester aren’t on the same level as my other grades?</p>
