University of Virginia Class of 2021 EA Discussion Thread

^ Thanks Dean J! I meant to include Recommendations in #2 above!

Sorry, also, I meant to type deemphasize (rather than emphasize) SAT scores in #3 above!

@enginero How do you know? Did UVA make an announcement?

@realityhitshard Dean J made a post about it on her blog.

@realityhitshard Yes! I would highly suggest following the Notes From Peabody Admissions Blog, because Dean J posts a lot of good information on there!

does UVA not use IDOC? Do I have to upload my tax return on the SIS?

I just called Financial Aid today and learned they do not use IDOC. When you go to your SIS look on the right menu to see what items are on your to-do list and it may indicate that a FA Certification Form is required (S’s showed this). It is a one-page form requiring signatures to confirm that the CSS Profile is accurate. Apparently they only want returns and W-2’s if they ask for it at a later time… at least this is what I understood.

Does UVA have a Hook’em option, dweebs?

As a parent of a Longhorn student, I apologize for the comment made by @CaptainHookEm.

Has anyone received the Rodman/Echols Scholars invitations? I live in-state (on the other side of VA) and haven’t gotten it.

@realityhitshard I started another thread on this. It appears that a few in state people received the Echols invitations today, Friday. See that thread. Hope this helps :slight_smile:

I know someone who lives in Charlottesville who got Rodman and I know someone else got Echols, but idk where they live @realityhitshard

Has anyone received their mailed admissions letter?

@enginero I have not.

Any OOS accepted students get the letter yet? Not here in NJ.

I just received an email saying I’m a rodman scholar but I haven’t gotten the mail yet. Any other rodman scholars here?

@realityhitshard, that email was about an engineering-specific open house. :slight_smile:

@“Dean J” The email wasn’t about an invitation to be a Rodman scholar then? Because it says “Rodman Scholar Program” in the subject and “we’ve selected you to be a Rodman scholar” in the body.

@“Dean J” I got an invitation email too. The email says that I was invited to join the Rodman Scholar program and the engineering open house.

OOS - got the letter in today’s mail.

@Testingearly - can I ask what state you are in or area of the US. Thank you!
