Hey everyone!
I was just wondering what my chances are for getting into the University of Virginia. I’m currently a high school senior.
Full IB
3.7 Unweighted GPA
32 ACT
Secretary for Student Gov
Varsity Tennis and Cross Country
National Honor Society
Letter of Commendation for the PSAT
Insane amounts of charity (meals on wheel all my life, collecting money for special Indian schools, and co-spearheading a project for Limbs this year)
President of Politics Club
I’m also Asian- Indian

Any input would be fantastic! Thank you!

You’re a high school senior? Are you taking a gap year? Why haven’t you applied already? You don’t say if you’re in state or out of state or what your major will be/what school at UVa you’ll apply to. Also, how long have you been involved with your activities? All of those factors make a huge difference at UVa as I understand it. It’s always a gamble at any highly selective school, but it appears you have the foundation of what they’d look for, but maybe you can provide more info for better feedback.

@seniormom2021 Oh no, haha, I’ve already applied; I’m just awaiting what my decision is. The activities minus community service I’ve been involved in since my junior year (due to a family issue, I couldn’t due anything outside of school my freshman and sophomore year, which I highlight in my essay). I’m out of state, and I’m planning on majoring in computer science there. Oh yeah, I also did a few science fairs, in which I went to the state level and got a superior rating.

If you haven’t received an acceptance already your chances are 0 now. Decisions were released last week.

is this a joke?

bro I think u need to check ur portal or something cuz there’s a major problem here…

Lol yeah my bad, as it turns out, the email which informs me that a decision had been made somehow ended up in my junk.

Did you get in?

@seniormom2021 Waitlisted, regrettably.

I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t get a definite “yes” yet. You might have read that they had a record number of applications – up 13% overall – and that the majority of those applications came from out of state, the very pool from which they only accept just over 20%.

In-state or OOS?

@exoheat11 outside of state
