<p>Call the UVA.</p>
<p>Well you said that you are 26 years of age, so that brings up an interesting question.</p>
<p>Doesn’t that make you a non-traditional student? You might want to look into the UVA BIS program in which the admissions is much easier…</p>
<p>If not, then I know it is simply required for you to graduate from the school of arts and sciences at UVA completing a language requirement up to the 202 level (Generally 4-5 courses). </p>
<p>They want you to do this before you come to UVA for your own benefit and so that it is easier for you to transition into your major. I would honestly go to the transfer blog that they have. Simply “google” UVA transfer blog and you will find that other people have the same concerns as you. </p>
<p>If anything call the admissions office for they are extremely helpful…Send me a private message if you want more info, I don’t usually check my CC account but if you private message me then it will be forwarded to my email… </p>
<p>Good Luck</p>
<p>anymore replies?</p>
<p>I’m not familiar with UVA personally, but from what I can see on their website, you can definitely be accepted. It just all depends on what major/college you want at UVA and what they recommend for transfer. Dig around on their site for more specific transfer guidance, or check with your current school. If you still can’t find what you need, call the UVA admissions office or go in person if you can to make sure you’re on track. From my experience, very few classes are actually required for transfer, simply recommended (typically general curriculum), and certain majors will want you to take major-specific courses in residence rather than at your transfer institution.</p>
