<p>I'm sure this has been covered in the other threads but I was just curious about what UVA is expecting from its applicants SAT- and GPA-wise who are coming out-of-state? Perhaps the people who were accepted early could speak to that.</p>
<p>well, i can speak from my experience (i just got in ED-out of state)... like any competitive school, i think they like strong gpas and tough schedules (im 5/277, with a weighted 100.2, graduating with 8 aps). also, they make you write 3 essays so that must mean something. of course, sat is important, but my sat score was the weakest part of my app (1330). i also had loads of nice ECs and lots and lots of leadership in all of them. i guess it comes down to the whole package. so don't worry about one thing as long as everything else shines. (i think thats what worked for me)</p>
<p>hope this helps and hope to see you in the class of 09!!!</p>
