<p>Hey everyone, long time reader, first time poster.</p>
<p>I'm a Va Community College student who got a rejection from uva yesterday. I'm determined to get into uva even if it takes 5 more years of CC. I'm kinda bummed out about it. If anyone has advice or encouragement, I'd love to hear it. I plan on applying again for fall 07 transfer. So, anyone who either has been or is currently in a similar situation, post your sad story here to make me feel better...please.</p>
<p>You should keep your chin up and know that getting in as a spring transfer is much, much tougher than getting in as a fall transfer. What's your gpa?</p>
<p>cavalier hit it right on...spring transfer is almost harder than freshman admission, because there is a VERY limited number of spots (cav, correct me if im wrong, but im pretty sure its less than 100) and so i wouldnt give up hope at all...DEFINENTLY reapply for Fall, they'll see the continued interest, and you'll have a MUCH better shot, especially being instate</p>
<p>I was under the impression that only special cases were taken for spring. I read this on their webiste: Students are ordinarily admitted only for the fall semester, although a limited number are admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences for the spring semester.</p>
<p>Yea, the number is small enough that's I'd venture to say that they only take URM's, development cases, athletes and people with extraordinary GPA's from top schools (Duke, Georgetown, whatever). I could be wrong though.</p>
<p>They're only 30 spots for spring transfer while they're 500 for fall.</p>
<p>I got rejected for spring transfer too.</p>
<p>thanks for your support. GPA is 3.6 with some moderately hard classes (calculus). I was just hoping my EC's would get me in. I got a letter saying I could apply again this fall with same application and that I didn't have to pay the $60 again, anyone else get this letter?</p>
<p>I think you'll be very, very competitive for fall admission. Good luck!</p>
<p>you should be fine for fall, and yes, you're automatically put into the fall '07 pool (i read this on their admissions site somewhere, and im 100% sure about this)
good luck too! i'm applying for Fall '07 to E-school as a soph, so if you have any issues you want to talk about just PM me =) hopefully a transfer thread will be started and active as we get closer to Feb 1</p>
<p>I don't expect you people to know this one. Do you have any sense of how the in state/out of state thing comes into play in transfer admission? I was looking for a ratio for the transfers, but couldn't find it. </p>
<p>Of course, I'm hoping being from another state isn't going to make the process harder for me.</p>
<p>yupp! directly from Dean Roberts too (i recommend emailing him with ANY questions, he's very helpful and is quick to respond) and he said that they like to keep 2/3 in-state, 1/3 OOS, even in transfers. <a href="http://www.web.virginia.edu/IAAS/data_catalog/institutional/historical/admission/trans_by_residency.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.web.virginia.edu/IAAS/data_catalog/institutional/historical/admission/trans_by_residency.htm</a>
looks like thats pretty accurate from the data too, which is GREAT for me (im in-state =P virginia all my life, and i actually like it...)</p>
<p>Anyone know when spring orientation/class registration begins for spring transfers?</p>
<p>i love your determination.</p>
<p>-a fellow wahoo.</p>
<p>some of us would do anything to transfer there</p>
<p>I'm on the eact same page as you shoebox. I don't know why, but your response had me thinking about the klondike bar commercials (What would you do.....)</p>
<p>hey, u stole my post, mannn</p>
<p>i know a girl who tried to transfer here 4 times until she finally got in.</p>
<p>"What would you do to get into UVA....."</p>
<p>this should be a thread hahah</p>
