Great, just wanted to confirm!
DeanJ just posted the EA 2024 statsā¦by my reading, similar admit rates vs. last year w/ the big caveat that last year they had a deferral option (21% deferred in 2023 EA), and this year they donāt, so volume of acceptances is more this year since there is no deferral. Good luck to everyone!

All colleges say there is no portal astrology even if there is. I donāt think this is an example of it, but there could be something somewhere else.
It looks like both oos and in state acceptance rates are each one percent higher.
Looks like itās a bit easier to get in OOS for UVA over UNC Chapel Hill right? UNC didnāt publish but iām thinking <5% range for OOS.

I never found a UNC official OOS accept rate online, but the reddit speculation was somewhere in the 6-7% range which is crazy hard.

UNC is only 18% OOS, while UVA is ~33% OOS.

New post about number of applications, etc.
No, UNC had a much lower acceptance rate for OOS and we know for sure UVA will be 13% this year.
Iām talking about percentages of students, not acceptance rates. UNC, by statute, is only 18% OOS. UVA is about 1/3 OOS students.

2024 Stats from The Peabody Blog Post
Early Action Applications
Total number of Early Action applications: 37,642 (36,459 last year)
Total number of VA apps: 10,109 (9,511)
Total number of OOS apps: 27,533 (26,948)
We use completed applications in our statistics.
Early Action Offers
Overall offers: 6,519
Total VA offers: 2,854 (28% offer rate)
Total OOS offers: 3,665 (13% offer rate)
Enrollment Goal: ~3,970
Itās misleading to average these offer rates together because residency is a major factor in our review. If you are going to share these numbers, cite BOTH offer rates.
We have just over 57,000 applications total at this point. As always, Iāll have more numbers at the end of the Regular Decision process.

Surely everyone is aware that the stats posted today are only for the EA round. Canāt really extrapolate acceptance rates until the full cohort (including RD) is released.
Weāve always provided admission data by school of entry on the website. You can see the data going back many years here: https://ira.virginia.edu/university-data-home/undergraduate-admissions
You can generally assume that VA resident rates are a little higher and OOS rates are a little lower.

This is correct! The team is just prepping for the release. They donāt load the decisions until the release, so the things youāre seeing have nothing to do with the decision. I covered this in the blog post.

Appear to be accepting 10% more students in EA than last year with the same number of anticipated students matriculating. I guess there is anticipated decrease in yieldā¦
Yeah, maybe less RD apps as well.
There are no deferred students this year - and in past years, a percentage of the deferred students would be accepted.
UVA took, for them, large amount of kids off the wait list last year. Probably adjusted their yield numbers based on that.
