<p>Hey,
I'm a hopeful transfer student. Currently a freshman, from Maryland. I'm kind of freaking out. Does anyone have any idea when we will find out?/ does anyone want to freak out with me and compare stats or offer me some sort of assurance?</p>
<p>Also, does the fact that I'm a legacy help me if I'm out of state?</p>
<p>Sorry. I know these angst posts are annoying, but I thought there might be some comfort if we could all freak out together.</p>
<p>Yes, let's freak out together. haha I'm a freshman at James Madison trying to transfer to UVA as well. I have a feeling that we'll find out in a week or two when they change that password for the online application and whatnot. I'm sure having a legacy couldn't hurt no matter what.</p>
<p>STATS:
college gpa: 3.94
hs gpa: 3.96
sats: 1160 (terrible, i know)</p>
<p>Oyze, post your stats when you get a chance.</p>
<p>I heard somewhere that last year transfers found out around mid-April instead of May 1. I hope that happens again this year.</p>
<p>Me:</p>

<p>i hate waiting. i just want to know.</p>
<p>that would be awesome. i hate how they got rid of our passwords cause it prevents me from checking the sight obsessively.</p>
<p>Has anyone received their new usernames and passwords yet? That email said by April 15, and they're cutting it close.</p>
<p>33 on your ACT? Damn, I feel dumb. Where do you go to school now?</p>
<p>i go to st. mary's college of maryland. it's a tiny liberal arts school in the middle of nowhere and i hate it. what about you?</p>
<p>o, and i haven't gotten the new password yet either. what do you think the chances are that they'll have our decisions done when they give us the new passwords?</p>
<p>i think you guys should relax. i bet that all of you will receive your acceptance letters soon.</p>
<p>hey jaek99, did you get your acceptance earlier than the date listed on uva's website (you were a spring transfer though, right)?</p>

<p>Donuts - if you're not accepted, try again next year. When I met with the dean last summer he told me that my h.s. record would be a big factor, even though I had a 4.0 college gpa. My h.s. record was about like yours, and the dean told me to give it another shot if I wasn't admitted on the first go around (I applied for the spring semester, so it was inherently more difficult anyway).</p>
<p>Anyone received passwords or aid info? This waiting stuff sucks.</p>
<p>yea waiting does suck....but they said that they would give us our passwords by the 15th, so that means saturday. we still might have some time to wait until our decisions are actually posted though.....I hope they pull a UNC and tell us early!</p>
<p>Sorry, but they're not telling you guys til May 1st. I know someone in the admissions office has a meeting with someone else in the admissions office about some of the transfer students near the end of april and the meeting's important for mailing out decisions. That sounded about as unspecific as possible right?</p>
<p>You might find out a week early, but I wouldn't count on it</p>
<p>thanks for filling us in saladfingers. at least we know not to hold our breath</p>
