when does UVA’s EA notification come out?? I heard that they usually release them earlier than the announced date. I’m really nervous!
Last year I believe it was Jan 25.
Jan 31st according to the website
The latest it will be is January 31st, and if they plan to release them sooner it will be announced on Dean J’s blog: http://uvaapplication.blogspot.co.uk/
Thank you so much for the link, super helpful @Chocolatepi
You never know…It was January 11 for our first-super early! Good luck-the waiting can be difficult.
Dean J mentioned this somewhere before that they had record EA applicants this year and hinted that they would not be earlier this year due to that.
I think it’ll be somewhere in the 24th to 26th range. Thoughts?
nervous too!
Here is what Dean J posted yesterday on the UVa 2022 thread:

Expecting decisions earlier when we have more early applications than ever before might not make the most sense. Hang in there, folks.
Historically, decisions have come around 5 days after the update, which would mean sometime in the middle of next week. However, it could be earlier. From 2012 to 2013, applications saw a slight increase, but decisions came several days earlier, presumably because they hired additional staff. They probably hired additional readers after 2017 following the increase from 16k in 2016 to 20k last year. So maybe they’ll be released earlier, maybe early next week.
Whoa! Historically, I post an update when students ask for an update. People always get antsy in mid-January, knowing that we’ll be finishing out EA work in the next two weeks.
Thanks, as always, @“Dean J”, for cutting through all the benign but ultimately uninformed speculation and tea-leaves reading!! We will all try to be patient and know you will let us know when something real is about to happen. This could be thought of as sucking up except you don’t know who we are.
really hoping it’s next week
