I just got into UVa and Echols!

<p>For those that have received the email, what's the status of your application online? Does it read 'Accepted' yet?</p>

<p>nope it doesnt for me.............</p>

<p>Congrats to all the accepted UVaers and Echols Schols. <em>standing ovation</em> That's a way big deal, y'all, as I'm sure you already know ;). You should definitely be really proud of yourselves. Pats on the backs all around!</p>

<p>Haven't checked the thingie online, but I didn't get a call, and no letter yet, just the email. Probably get the letter tomorrow, takes a day to get up here.</p>

<p>After a miserable day at school yesterday and no small amount of venting at home, d checked her email and morphed into the happiest kid on the planet. She loves UVA but never thought she'd be a candidate for Echols - she dismissed what I told her I'd read on the boards and didn't want to get her hopes up. </p>

<p>My d got the likely letter a few weeks ago, but no phone call. Stats: 1510/800/790/790; school doesn't rank but she's supposedly top 1% according to her GC; NMF; strong but not spectacular ECs. She really worked the essays and I thought they were very good. She's planning to attend Echols day.</p>

<p>I got my likely letter today (international mail...) and just got admitted as well. Yay! A great day for me :)</p>

<p>...I hope this isn't a hoax, 'cos my mum was really pleased. She hopped around my room for a while - she didn't even do this for UCLA.</p>

<p>Oh, and 1500 can't be the cutoff because I got a 1440 on my SAT I.</p>

<p>There is no SAT cutoff for Echols, and it certainly couldn't be 1500. The average score for Echols scholars is in the 1470-1480 range.</p>

<p>did you have to apply for this separately or do they consider every application?</p>

<p>Did any students that were accepted ED find out that they got into the echols scholars program?????????????? or was it just for the RD?</p>

<p>i just got my email...sickkk..</p>

<p>is everyone gonna go to the day on the lawn?</p>

<p>Don't think I'm going to day on the lawn...a bit far</p>

<p>You don't have to apply for Echols, they just choose you.</p>

<p>Conaln:
Was your email also dated 03-15 at 3:11pm?</p>

<p>if they sent out more emails today, is there anyone out, like me, with their fingers crossed about receiving one tommorrow?</p>

<p>nkay: "...I hope this isn't a hoax, 'cos my mum was really pleased. She hopped around my room for a while - she didn't even do this for UCLA."</p>

<p>My mom doesn't get excited over any of my acceptances lol, "oh that's cool"</p>

<p>yes indeed</p>

<p>legendofmax- my dad doesn't, either. he kind of just went, "good." when I told him about UCLA. Hopefully I'll get in to UVA and he'll show a little more enthusiasm.</p>

<p>My mom didn't say anything. Not even good, or cool. She was just like "ok." klajfkdlj :mad:</p>

<p>ouch. aren't parents fun? (no offense to those parents concerned enough to be on CC)</p>

<p>mom started jumping and hiperventilating....</p>
