<p>I just want to make sure that I'm not missing anything, but my UVA sent me the application and I am surprised to find that there's no form to list extracurriculars or forms for teacher recs. Or are these things not needed by the university?</p>
<p>If its the freshman app, I think you are responsible for doing that yourself. If its the transfer app, they have a question about ECs in the supplement.</p>
<p>It's one of the "essay" questions on both applications.</p>
<p>^ What's that mean? There's an essay about your extracurriculars?</p>
<p>Buffalo, have you read the prompt for that text box? I put essay in quotes because it's in the essay section, but it's just a text box with a prompt about how to list your activities.</p>
<p>Oh, gotcha. I was confused about what the quotes implied.</p>
<p>Sorry, I may sound stupid but this is where I went to <a href="http://www.virginia.edu/undergradadmission/essays.html%5B/url%5D">http://www.virginia.edu/undergradadmission/essays.html</a>. And I didn't see anything abour listing extracurriculars. (I'm applying for a freshman spot.) And about teacher recs, do I just ask my teachers to write them myself? How many is acceptable?</p>
<p>Also, I'm a permanent citizen (green card) but not yet a citizen, will I be counted as an international student? Thanks for all the replies.</p>
<p>A green card should allow you to pay at the instate rates. A friend of mine decided to work the year following his graduation becuase he had a student visa, meaning colleges would have counted him as an international. I think he got his green card not too long ago, so he is looking to attend college next fall.</p>
