I got to one of the most competitive schools in NoVA, and my counselors and UVA representatives have told me that we’re only compared to other students from our high school. How does this affect chances if I’m the only one applying to a certain school/college within UVA from my high school?
For UVa, I don’t believe the other applicants from your school will affect your chances either way.
Yep. We do not refer to how many people have applied from your school when we read.
