This thread is only for those who got wait listed.
deferred and waitlisted! so much for ever finding out my decision! guess this is just uva’s soft rejection of me lol
Chances of getting accepted off the waitlist?
1440 SAT
3.85 GPA
Taken every AP my school provides
4 year varsity basketball, 3 year varsity cross country and lots of community service hours.
Captain of varsity basketball team in my junior and senior year
I’m out of state so I can’t say I’m surprised, but it is an interesting position to be in.
I honestly expected an outright rejection, but ill take it. What are our next steps?
^ Same. I was expecting a rejection but received a waitlist instead. Not helpful, UVA!
There are those who were accepted with lower stats, so why do you guys think you got rejected?
Me: SAT score… on the lower side.
I was waitlisted; my identical twin brother was accepted. Can “familial unity” affect my chances of getting in off the waitlist?
@Betudo I have extremely low stats, thats why im shocked i didnt get an outright rejection. I have a 3.4 GPA and a 1310 SAT. Thats why im shocked
Does anyone know if waitlisted students accepted in either May or June are at a disadvantage for housing options and class registration for their first year?
Nope. Waitlisted students have no disadvantages when registering for housing/classes.
Can we send additional letter or any updates?
@Geneeeee0203 This is covered in the waiting list FAQs. Check them out!
@“Dean J” Are waitlist students allowed to send additional recommendation letters or a letters from their counselors about their updated achievements outside of the classroom?
@Betudo I’m going to refer again to those Waiting List FAQs. I wrote them and a blog post that goes into some other pieces of advice. Check those out.
@“Dean J”
when it comes to making decision in offering, would UVA see the final grade before making decision?
@Geneeeee0203 I think they would like to see your third quarter grades.
Hi everyone! Does anyone know where my teacher should send an additional recommendation letter to? Is it uvaapplicationinfo@virginia.edu?
All the common questions are answered on the FAQs that were linked in your letter: http://admission.virginia.edu/waitlist
How much of a faux pas is it to call UVA campus instead of Grounds? I’m a waitlisted student who just sent a letter to admissions and realized that I made the mistake today–incredibly scared now since UVA is now my first choice :((
