This isn’t about likely letters. but I wonder about this: as a parent of an EA applicant - I got a number of emails in Nov/Dec. from admissions saying things like “we ask that {name of my child] come to join …” and “[name] will have no problem finding a place, here, [name] belongs.” ; and “come and find your familie’s place… where [name] can connect”, “We willoffer the support your child needs”…etc.
They were form emails - with names/details inserted electronically I presume - but were very positive encouraging, we want your child form language that completely leaves out the “should your child be accepted” sentence one would expect. They seemed beyond a form “thanks for applying - here are the advantages of UVa should your child get in and should they choose us”.
If these are just basic recruiting emails for any/every applicant to ‘sell UVa’ - that’s fine - but not putting in a disclaimer about “we want your child should he or she be accepted and we hope they come” or something to that effect - has me feeling a little uneasy. It’s sort of giving some false hope that scores/grades/application was filtered to some extent and UVa was acknowledging my child was likely to get in. But these were November/December so the file could not have been fully examined yet I don’t think. I guess grades/rank/scores were ‘electronically’ available to the bot that sent these.
Anyway - did everyone else get similar emails and is there any reason to think they indicated any likelihood of admission?
thanks for your thoughts fellow applicants and parents.
