I speak both Chinese and English. Didn’t provide ACT or SAT since I took it right after I just moved here, I didn’t speak English at all. Another thing worth mention is probably that I only took ESL class for a year, after that I just picked up the language and started taking classes with all native speaker.
When I applied last year as a incoming Freshman, I received an email saying that the decisions were now ready. So I don’t know if they will do the same for transfers. I guess if they didn’t send any emails, then it would add to the suspense lol.
@TheLastofUs9 “I’m just curious, is everybody able to order their transcript through the SIS portal (i got up until the address info, then just stopped)?”
I actually got all the way to the last page and could place an order. Are you able to get that far? Don’t think it means anything, but still worth trying out stuff.
If I remember right from applying to colleges as a freshman schools will release the decisions on the portal at like 5ish then send an email about half an hour later telling you to check your portal
I wanna ask how many of you have some items on the “to do list”? Especially for those who are OOS? I still don’t have those items. I got both waitlisted and rejected from two other schools today, so I’m now getting upset…
Good luck everyone tmr!
@deliciousSteak I am out of state and I don’t have anything on my to-do list. However, I submitted literally every financial aid document before. Have you? You won’t have it if you have already submitted everything.
I would also assume you wouldn’t have anything if you didnt apply for financial aid, bc I did not and have nothing. Is anyone else in a similar position/
@machlan I submitted Parent W-2 Form and Parent 1040 Form before, but I don’t think I submitted FA Application Certification (I think this one is downloaded from UVA’s own website? I saw people saying they have this item on their to do list)…
I thought I had a good chance tho. But now I just become very unsure of my decision.
