From VT Admissions (verbal this afternoon) re: ED deferral. Take it as you will…
The school does not review LOCI, letters of recommendation, or any “new” materials in cases of deferral. “…the school does not want any letters or emails…”. Assuming their definition of new materials is consistent, then standardized tests taken after 1/1/20 and Senior year grades probably would not qualify as new materials anyway even if they did accept/review LOCI, etc. re: deferrals (per admissions appeal policy).
