UVA Fall 2019 Transfer Thread

@Dre51298 okay shoot me a PM whenever!

Has anyone done what Dean J suggested and called SFS about the finical aid status?

I really think everyone should stop calling UVA, if it is or isn’t an indicator we will find out. No point in annoying them 2 days before we find out for sure.

@JSTECK22 Someone already did a few pages ago in this thread, but also Dean J wasn’t suggesting people call, she was just saying how she was surprised someone hadn’t done so before asking her the question.

@raenbougg also potentially interested! I’ll pm you about it if I get in lol

@raenbougg oh wow you signed a lease before acceptance, confidence lol.

nah i think someone should call sfs and ask.

@uvatransfer2019 I get what you’re saying! It totally does not seem right. I applied to uva last year from high school, but I did not apply for financial aid then either. I honestly I have no idea why it’s on my SIS and I don’t think it means anything since it’s only 2019

@uvatransfer2019 my daughter applied to uva last year (out of high school) and was waitlisted. She did submit fafsa back then, but we didn’t know to look at the inquiry access thing. She is applying to transfer and did NOT apply for aid this year. Until a few weeks ago, her fin aid thing was “no information available.” Then it switched to “2019 inquiry access denied.” So, why the switch in early April? Who knows. Is it significant? It wouldn’t track with the acceptance theory as she wasn’t one of the 13 to get off the waitlist. And why would that “inquiry” info go away for all of March, then pop back out? Hard to thread all these pieces together. I guess we all just wait until decisions are out!

Well I also wanted to move in with one of my friends who is one of the roommates, but yeah not too smart tbh.

@uvafall2019oof I think it’s really inconsiderate to bug SFS about this. Even if a person does call they are not going to come out and say “Yeah we only process aid for admitted applicants” or “Yeah Inquiry Access Denied means you are accepted.”

Tbh we’ve already heard a couple deans say it has nothing to do with it, but obviously it must so.

okay both transfermer and Dean J. are really trying hard to emphasize that it doesn’t mean anything, fishy? But also its not that big of a deal that they would try so hard to hide it from people like whats the big deal if it did mean acceptance it’s nothing solid until decisions do come out. I’m just gonna keep overthinking to entertain myself until decisions come out.

@klm63amg im messin relax

@l2kids I have the same exact situation. Was waitlisted out of high school, did not apply for aid either year, and now have inquiry access denied for 2019.

@l2kids are you implying that it switched because of acceptance?

If your aid switched for 2019 that is really interesting. I don’t know what to make of it.

I’m not trying to imply anything! I have no idea whether my daughter will be accepted - am just reporting what I see. If there is a theory that “inquiry access denied 2019” refers to last year’s application, she ultimately didn’t get accepted b/c she never got off the waitlist. And this year SIS said “no information found” with no date next to it for weeks. Then it switched (but added inquiry access denied for 2019 only, not 2020). I can’t speak to whether that switch is significant for her, or any others. Am just chiming in b/c this group doesn’t have that many active posters and it seems that almost all who post here DID apply for aid. So to the extent that it’s helpful to have people who didn’t apply for aid respond, I’m just adding to the data, if you will. Again, hope everybody gets good news!

Just to add, I applied with GAA to SEAS and do not have inquiry access denied. I am recieving 2 associate degrees at NVCC with a 4.0 GPA. However, I am not a virginia resident and did not apply to aid. Looking at past years thread, students from SEAS got accepted without the inquiry access denied but not sure if it works the same for CAS or Mcintire.

Okay this is extremely random and 110% irrelevant, I just wanna know if I’m crazy. Did everyone else’s portal change from a picture to a painting? This is not me asking about indicators lol im just genuinely curious
