<p>I was wondering if UVA releases a date and time when the application decision prior to the April 1st release date. Many schools release before the given date. I am pretty excited. 108 days.</p>
<p>It is usually 5pm. Some years it is a day early and some years it is not. It will be announced. I know Dean J puts it on her blog when she knows.</p>
<p>Do you know when she put it on her blog? All of these early-decisions are making me excited haha.</p>
<p>Some students (not sure how many) receive “likely letters” in March. It’s not an official acceptance; however, I’ve never heard if someone getting a likely who wasn’t accepted. I can’t remember the exact date they are released. (Perhaps someone else will chime in with this info.) I do recall D had received it before spring break last year which for her was 3/13-3/21.) I don’t believe many of these are sent out; however, for those who receive one, they can start visualizing the possibilities of attending. In short, it puts the school on their radar before the others letters come 4/1. D got one for UNC as well, so I know they utilize likelies too. I don’t know which other schools have them. Be patient (easier said than done)…April 1 will be here before you know it!</p>
<p>Check out Dean J’s blog for her posts in March 2009 and 2010: [Notes</a> from Peabody: The UVA Application Process: Notification Update!](<a href=“http://uvaapplication.blogspot.com/2010/03/notification-update.html]Notes”>Notes from Peabody: The UVA Application Process: Notification Update!).</p>
<p>I post throughout the reading season to give updates about where we are in the process. We usually know if we can notify early in the middle of March. </p>
<p>If we can’t notify early, the date is April 1.<br>
If we can notify early, I post the date as soon as I know it.</p>
<p>By the end of the process, we are really, really excited to notify, so I literally fly to the keyboard to dash off the blog update with the date.</p>
<p>EDIT: I just watched the 2009 video. I can’t tell you all how hard it was for me to make a 30 second video, in a rush, with my hands shaking. I’ll try to do something similar this year, but I fear my iMovie skills aren’t much better.</p>
<p>A previous post said only a very small percentage of accepted students at UVa get a “Likely to be Admitted” letter before April. Therefore, don’t be worried if you don’t get one.</p>
<p>i heard they announced yesterday?</p>
