Hi everyone! What do you guys think my chances are into getting in to UVA
1540 SAT one sitting
3.7-3.8 weighed GPA lol IK rusty but I was super unmotivated first two years, I picked up a 4.0 Junior year and now like a 4.2 senior year first semester
ECs
- I own my own business (female entrepreneur)
- officer of Model Un team (2 years – 10+ competitions)
- 2 years working for a job
- tutoring business
recs: both my teachers LOVED me
Essays: solid I talk about my business
I’m applying to the business program which a lot of females don’t really go towards
so what do you guys think?
In or out of state?
If you are talking about McIntyre, UVA students apply after spending two years fulfilling liberal arts and business pre-reqs. Admission is competitive. https://www.commerce.virginia.edu/undergrad/application-process-high-school
UVA is a reach for nearly all OOS applicants…class of 2023 OOS/Int’l acceptance rate was 19%. https://admission.virginia.edu/unofficial-admission-statistics-uva-class-2023
Regarding your uwGPA…you should calculate this for core courses only so that you know it, using a 4 pt scale where A/A- = 4, B+/B/B- = 3 and so on.
UVA admission is holistic so your essays, LoRs, and ECs will also be important to the admissions decision.
If you are certain you want business, think about direct admit programs that may have a lower risk than UVA/McIntyre junior year competitive application process. Look at the admission rates for McIntyre (and any other schools you are looking at), the ease of joining business clubs (do they have competitive admission too?), accessing internships during the school year/summers, etc.
Good luck.
