<p>General Comments/Congratulations/etc: congrats to everyone !:)</p>

<p>My son just received an email he was accepted but it does not say what he was accepted into. He applied for Architecture. I am curious when other people received their acceptance did it say what for in an email? It is not posted yet on the Virginia Tech site , we just received an email.</p>

<p>pha516 - I don’t recall that it said anything specific. My son applied for Engr. Maybe it will be more specific in the official letter.</p>

<p>Thanks Grcxx3. I will await the letter. I also sent an email back to admissions. Maybe they will let me know for sure.</p>

<p>I was also accepted and got the e-mail and its not on site yet, I only assume I was accepted for what I applied for. I’m not sure, but within a week I will know.</p>

<p>Hey, for those who have been accepted, when did you all apply?</p>

<p>I’m pretty anxious to get my response (one of my top choices) but I applied like 1/13.</p>

<p>Accepted! However, I’d rather not list my stats. You can find them in one of my other posts, though.</p>

<p>i applied around 1/10 i think… (a few days before the deadline i remeber) and got the decision today… but i think they’re sending more decisions out next week and end of march</p>

<p>^^ Thank you. Bleh, I guess that wasn’t it…just have to wait… sooo impatient.</p>

<p>justaverage010, I applied back in mid-September…so I’ve been waiting a LONG time!!</p>

<p>Haha. I know. I really haven’t been waiting on VT that long, considering I only decided to apply in November. My friend who got in applied in September too so I figured that was what it was. The only thing is I’m going to VT this weekend (again) so it’d be nice to be in. But CONGRATS! :D</p>

<p>My son submitted his application Sept 30. So, it’s been a while!!!</p>

<p>I got the acceptance email, but on the “view application summary page” it doesn’t say admission offered, or indicate that there has been any activity at all. This is through the application status check. Is there somewhere else I should be looking for what you all are seeing?</p>

<p>you guys, do you know how much VT looks into internships in engineering fields and what not for engineering school? my GPA is just barely at their 25th percentile (SAT is way above 75% percentile tho). please answer this as this may make or break the decision.</p>

<p>JUSTAVERAGE010:</p>

<p>My application was marked complete around 11/20/09.</p>

<p>I applied around thanksgiving</p>
