Waitlist

<p>Dean J- Sorry for addressing a thread to you, but what are UVa's waitlist policies? Is the list ranked? How many people do you usually take off the waitlist?</p>

<p>Waitlisted as well.</p>

<p>She said she will make a blog post soon about the waitlist, and I’m pretty sure she will address these questions. For now though, you may want to check out this post:

<p>Dean J is staying off her blog tonight because of decision day. I think she’ll post something about waitlists soon.</p>

<p>Ehh, scratch that… she’s already posted something about waitlisted students on her blog.</p>

<p>anybody can copy & paste the blog about the waitlist to this website? Dean J’s blog is blocked and cannot be visited in China…</p>

<p>…really?</p>

<p>"Let’s talk about decisions: The Waitlist
Waitlisted students can use this entry to talk.</p>

<p>We have traditionally offered waitlist spots to a large number of students. In the past, this has been because there are so many different segments to the population here (CLAS/SEAS/SARS/NURS for both VA and OOS students). We have cut the waitlist down a lot this year for a few reasons. This means there aren’t as many of you feeling like you are in limbo.</p>

<p>We won’t know how large the waitlist is until you all accept or decline your offers (yes, you have to respond online to the offer of a spot on the waitlist). You are not ranked. You have until May 1 to make your decision. There have been years when we’ve taken 50 students off the waitlist and years when we’ve taken 250 students off the waitlist. Last year, we offered admission to 288 waitlisted students.</p>

<p>For now, you need to look at your other options and think about which one feels right to you. Some of you will want to hold on and see what happens with the waitlist and others will want to fully invest themselves in another school. Either way, you need to submit a deposit at a school by May 1st to ensure yourself a spot in another school’s freshman class. If you are offered a spot in our class and you decide to accept it, you’ll have to write to that other school and withdraw your name from the class (you may lose your deposit at that school). Just remember that you can’t “double deposit”.</p>

<p>Feel free chat here and stay tuned over the weekend for replies to questions. Also know that your envelope will contain a “Waitlist Frequently Asked Questions” sheet that will answer the most common questions (is the list ranked, what do I do now, what’s the time line, etc.)."</p>

<p>waitlisted too…this sucks.</p>

<p>Google and China aren’t getting along these days. Perhaps since my blog is hosted by Blogger, which is owned by Google, Chinese students can’t access it.</p>

<p>Exactly, dean J. In the past, I could use Google Cached to read your blog, but when I visited it again this morning, access is blocked totally…</p>
