<p>Denied. 3.3 GPA from private college (thanks to Calculus); transfer applicant for Junior year.

Where else did you apply? </p>
<p>No other school - had to apply to in-state school because of family’s unemployment. Chose UVA only.</p>

Sorry to hear about that. What are you going to do now?</p>

<p>I don’t consider it a loss, though - I was heavily leaning towards going to VT for their mechanical engineering program anyway, so this just made it easy. I’m just pissed that now I am REALLY behind on finding housing in Blacksburg. Uh, anyone got any tips for that? :-/ </p>
<p>I’m in an interesting position. I was waitlisted; however I did not send in a recommendation letter with my application. I’m not taking classes currently, so do you guys think a good letter would push me over the top? Here are my stats for reference.</p>
