Although the Fall 2020 waitlist isn’t over yet, applications open in a month for spring 2021 admissions! If you’re interested, please post your stats.
I’m applying to the College!
HS Stats:
GPA: not great
SAT/ACT: Will retake SAT
Leadership in clubs and at school
Work experience
Volunteered many hours
Wrote stories for a non-profit that works to prevent illiteracy for African children
Raised thousands of dollars for charity
Played Varsity sports year-round

Out of state at a top 25 state school
Spring GPA: 3.75 (22 credits, currently enrolled in 15 for the fall most classes meet requirements for the College)
1x Deans List
President of a club I made in support of a non-profit, raised over $200 for this foundation

In our competitive wall street club
Interning in equity research, with a non-profit and working a job this summer. Will continue working in the fall
I’m low-income and first-gen.
I know spring admissions are challenging, but if I don’t get in, I’ll keep working for Fall 2021!
HS GPA: kinda trash
ACT: 31 cumulative
Some work experience, some extracurriculars and volunteer work, but honestly nothing that special.

Dean’s List for Fall 2019 and Spring 2020
Literally no extracurriculars LOL
Not at all expecting to get in, but I figured I’d shoot my shot and see what happens
Hey! It’s great to see other people on CC who want to be in the class of '23 at UVA. We’re early so hopefully participation in this thread will pickup as fall approaches. You seem like a great candidate, good luck!
@VALOVER111 Admit rates for a fall transfer tend to be 35-40% according to UVA, but there are just fewer spots for the spring. The application should be available soon.
From the transfer blog:
There is no waitlist in our spring admission process. Please do keep in mind how much more limited in space the spring pool is - it is not even a tenth of the size of the fall semester enrollment. The acceptance rate for this spring pool was just under 16%
Results are out. I got denied but that was expected as I only had a 3.4. Thankfully I got a 3.7 this semester so my GPA is a 3.5 now, and I should make honor roll, which will give me pretty good chances for fall transfer
Also should add they mentioned they’re projecting only 500 seats for fall time which is 1/2 of what it was last year. This means it’ll be even more competitive and I bet springtime this year was extraordinarily competitive.
