University of Virginia Early Action/Early Decision for Fall 2024 Admissions

Capable student? Hmmmm….

Obviously not enough for them lol

I appreciated the sentiment. My son in the same boat. Sorely disappointed, but not unexpected.

So no deferred for anyone? Admitted, denied or waitlisted are the only three possible outcomes for EA? (Waitlisted here, OOS)

Bummed here for sure, it was one of her top choices (as much as it pains the Hokie in me to admit) but also will always wonder if she would have gotten in if she had applied to the college of sciences. At UVA and one other school she applied to Kinesiology, she wants to be an orthopedic surgeon and with the renowned Kinesiology program at UVA we thought it a great opportunity and planned that she would take her premed classes as electives. Unfortunately shooting for the moon with that program may have been the difference.

The letter started out sounding so dire that Droid1 thought they’d been rejected. But…

Accepted Engineering
OOS
35
Varsity captain
Super high rigor

Yes! No confetti, had to re-read it and make sure truly was admitted!

Decades ago, I was rejected from UVa when applying to grad school as OOS.

Today, it’s extremely hard to get in as in-state and almost impossible as out-of-state.

Congratulations to all those who applied!
