A place to post your thoughts, worries, questions, and more about applying to UVA Regular Decision.
Guess I’m here now. #deferred. Brb still crying
:’( :’( :’(
Bump - there’s gotta be others here! 
Hiya there! Was looking for this thread lol
I’m surprised this discussion thread hasn’t gotten rolling, lots of a UVA discussion threads in the past have gotten dozens and dozens of pages of posts
Nothing to discuss… only pray
Bump(?)
Last year decisions came by like March 21st apparently, and not the April 1st postmark date. Is there a chance they will come early again this year?..and if so, any predictions?
If EA is any predictor of what will happen RD, yes they’ll come out early. Dean J said they’ve never waited Until Nov 1 for EA, so I’d assume they don’t wait for April 1 for RD. They say that as soon as they’re done, they release them. Chances are it’ll be on a Friday, 1 or 2 weeks before April 1, so either the 20th or the 27th of March. I’d predict March 27th.
On my portal, it says view decision, but then takes me to a page that says my decision won’t be available until April 1st. Anyone else?
@soccerdude13 Me too. It’s probably for everyone, but please be a sign!
@BassGuitar haha that’s what I’m hoping for! I can also log in to uva Collab, and on there I have a virginia.edu email account with my username… Crossed fingers!
@soccerdude13 A UVA email, no way!!! Oh man. You’re getting my hopes up!
The view decision link means nothing - we went over this during EA. We all got it eventually, accepted, rejected, or deferred.
I wouldn’t read too much into the email address because generally, you won’t get an email until you commit - I can see an email on UVa Collab as well, but that’s not even the email you’d get if you attend, it would be your name, not your username.
@Soccerdude13 There was a similar thing during EA. No one is sure what it means when the status changes, and the little “view decision” link pops up, but there was speculation that it means they’ve input your decision into the computer, but it’s still just hidden from you. I don’t think it means anything, it happened to me and I was deferred from EA. Didn’t get a UVa email address though… 
It’s also very possible I’m looking in the wrong place lol.
Yeah and also, if you have lots of “to do” activities, it means nothing as well (unfortunately) haha. I got all excited by all of those (the “view decision” link, the email address, and the lots of “to do” stuff). But either way, good luck to all!!! I’m trying to just relax and chill, but can’t help getting butterflies just thinking about the decision that’ll come out soon 
All 3 of my children took classes at UVA while in high school and were given a SIS, collab and UVA email. When they actually applied to UVA, all that was still in place and therefore essentially meant nothing more than they had taken classes at UVA (i.e., it wasn’t a sign). All three were accepted though. You guys don’t have much longer to wait!!! Good luck!
DD was deferred. Her deferral letter said that switching colleges might help. She did that and is hoping that getting out of Engineering will improve her odds of being accepted.
Dean J posted recently that the recent snow storms and snow days at UVA mean that they are running behind schedule compared to where they would be without the missed days. I bet it will still be a couple of weeks.
I’m assuming it’ll be the 27th. That follows suit with the Friday ordeal, and it seems to fit the pattern of when the EA came out.
I just want it right now!! The wait is so nerve racking haha
