University of Richmond RD class of 2023

deferred EA; waitlisted RD (from NJ) 1460 SAT, 96 W GPA

@Aleinva Did the scholarship offer come in the big packet or separate mailer?

@KaleDai Have you got any news? I am also an international applicant.

I was waitlisted today from MA
34 ACT
4.0W GPA
Strong EC’s, very strong essays and extracurriculars
A little disappointed, but I’m okay with it. It was a little too far for me anyways. I visited once taking a self-guided tour and LOVED the school, and the second time I took a guided tour, it made me like UR a little less. I’m not sure why, but maybe it just wasn’t meant to be. I probably won’t accept my spot on the waitlist just because of the distance.
Congrats to everyone that got in, and to those who didn’t, we will all end up at great schools!!! :slight_smile:

accepting spot on waitlist

Would the people who got waitlisted just say if they are accepting their place on the waitlist or not. I’m trying to see how good of a chance I have. Thanks

@jgg1414 I am

I am

I am also accepting my place on the waitlist.

I still haven’t gotten my letter… is the deposit portal working?

No - deposit portal does not work

I will be accepting my place in the waitlist! Apparently Richmond waitlists 41% of applicants? I’m not 100% sure on this but you can look up schools that waitlist the most students and Richmond is up there

For the 2017-2018 school year: 3383 offered waitlist, 1581 went on it and 53 were accepted.

@peachplant I heard the same – I can’t believe they waitlist so many though

@Leigh22 wow, that’s a low yield.

The 2018/19 CDS is posted and the waitlist info was 3,653/1,243/28—even lower acceptance rate (2.2%) than 2017/18

Accepted :slight_smile: Got letter this morning, no update on online portal.
