Congratulations. I am a parent of student planning to apply next year for computer science. I have a couple of questions - 1. which all colleges did you apply for 2. what makes VT Comp Sci as “the” place you would join vs others.
My son was admitted ED to VT to the College of Natural Resources and Environment (Geography/GIS major) – 4.15 weighted GPA, 3.8 unweighted; 1320 comprehensive SAT (680 math, 640 reading/writing), solid extra-curriculars like Eagle Scout, Varsity Team Captain, etc. I think the hardest colleges to which to be admitted are Engineering, Architecture, and Business (in that order). When we visited VT, they told us that it is also very competitive to get in as “undecided,” because that is how 40 - 50% of students apply.

I forgot to add In State
DD wants to self report scores. She rec’d an email saying she should update the SRAR by tomorrow. Did you enter all dates and scores of SATs taken on the SRAR and let VT look at it and superscore? Or did you report the ones you wanted to highlight?
thanks for any insight –
Anyone know when typically VA Tech releases Early Action? Thanks
@briecollege They rarely deviate much more than a week at the most from the dates that are posted on the admissions info pages. It’s almost 100% to be a Friday at 5:00 PM as well.
Helpful hint - don’t refer to VT as “Vah-Tech” in verbal conversation. It’s cause for immediate dismissal.

Why would anyone call it Vah Tech? Of course it is Virginia Tech. VA is the acronym for Virginia so that is why I wrote it that way.

One can never tell, considering ESPN started butchering VT’s name years ago by pronouncing it “Vah” because their chyron reads “VA TECH”.
Just to be clear, my comment was made in fun/jest and in reference to verbal conversation. It’s only become a relatively recent phenomenon where VA Tech or worse yet VTech show up with some frequency in online forums. (VTech being a toy manufacturer and all).
More people than you would think.
Have you found a group on this site for VT early action or regular decision for fall 2022/class of 2026? I’m looking for one.
