any thoughts Dean

<p>Does anyone have any familiarity with how transfering to UVa works? Do they still require essays or SAT's? If one were to have a solid GPA how likely would it be to transfer to UVa?</p>

<p>dude:</p>

<p>UVa has a whole web page devoted to transfers -- check it out.</p>

Is the SAT or ACT required for admission? </p>

<p>Yes, however we will waive the testing requirement if you have been out of high school for five years. If a student is applying to Commerce, however, SAT or ACT testing (or the Toefl or IELTS for international students) is REQUIRED for all students seeking admission.

<p>Thanks for your quickly reply, Blue!</p>

<p>At the start of each year, I mention this, so here goes. While I try to check in regularly, this isn't really the place to direct a question to an admission officer. Just address your topic to the overall forum. If I see it and have something to add, I'll chime in.</p>

<p>Thank you for the direction. I guess I should look before I leap when putting up posts. The information was helpful, I appreciate it.</p>

<p>No worries! Right now, I'm checking in fairly often, but in another week, I'll be on the road and may not be able to log on each day.</p>
