<p>FYI: you apply to the e-school, not to a specific major</p>

<p>Yes, I imagine you do...I was simply stating my intended major.</p>

<p>Any thoughts on my chances? :)</p>

<p>as a virginian, i can confidently say that uva is a great school, but its e-school is a joke. For engineering/architecture, you apply to virginia tech.</p>

<p>that said, you have a good chance.</p>
