There is a program for non-echols to create their own major also. I came in with almost 60 college credit through AP and similar and did not get echols but my essays were less than stellar so I am pretty sure essays have a lot to do with it also. Also being in the education school I would have had to forfeit echols requirement waivers anyways because you have to take certain classes to get certified to teach in virginia anyways (mandated by the state so echols doesn’t help). you also forfeit echols if you move colleges (ie. get into comm school). it’s nice if you have it and don’t sweat it if you don’t.
