Fall 2015 UVA Transfer Waitlist

Thanks, I am nearing the end of my lengthy recovery. I worked really hard this semester to get all As to (hopefully) counteract my light course load.
I’m only a freshman, and every class I have taken so far has been on the requirements list. I am planning on taking chemistry (a class I dropped) over the summer to catch up. I have an appointment to speak with Olivia Hessing to elaborate on my situation, so hopefully it all works out ^:)^ . @“Dean J”

That’s a perfect plan. Olivia is an expert on all things related to transferring!

@“Dean J” I’m certainly glad that’s not the case! Thank you for clearing that up.

I was accepted to both UNC and Vanderbilt but I would drop everything if I got into UVA. I am an Econ major so I am hoping that will help me get off the waitlist. The main reasons I want to go to UVA is because of the school spirit, the business school (thinking about trying to transfer into McIntire), and lastly because I could continue to play polo (horse polo) at UVA.

Has anyone sent a letter of continuing interest yet?

Not yet. I will soon though. To be honest, I do not think that it makes a huge difference by sending that letter but it can never hurt. Better to be safe than sorry.

@treeel Yea I really like the school spirit there, my school has none (and no good sports teams) its so depressing.

@hoospls sounds JUST like my school. I feel you

lol where do you go? @hlplsslyhopn

Very small private school in VA @hoospls

lol well I go to the biggest school in Virginia and the feeling is mutual. @hlplsslyhopn

When should we expect to start getting notified if we will be taken off the waitlist or not?

Early to mid june @collin1227

Anyone here write an essay to the admissions committee? If so what did you write about? What was the topic?

DId they ask you for one?

@jeffisaboss nope but I think it would make you stand out if you write one

I wish that we found out earlier than June. The waiting kills

I was already dead by May 1 and now I think the universe is playing a sick game on me. hah @hlplsslyhopn

Hang in there guys @hoospls you better get in.

@hoospls couldn’t have said it better myself.
