Are they not doing deferrals this year? My kid was waitlisted and I see some others here who are saying waitlisted. I thought colleges only did deferral for early action and waitlists for regular decision.

Waitlist FAQs
https://www.vt.edu/admissions/frequently-asked-questions/wait-list.html

What is Virginia Tech’s history of selecting students from the waitlist? In 2023, we were unable to offer any applicants from the waitlist. In 2022, we were able to offer 2,458 applicants from the waitlist. In 2021, we were able to offer 3,286 applicants from the waitlist. In 2020 we were able to offer 3,961 applicants from the waitlist. In 2019 we were unable to make any offers. In 2018 we were able to offer 1,896 applicants from our waitlist. As you can see, the number of students ultimately receiving offers from the waitlist is highly unpredictable and variable each year.

These are great options. I would much rather go to several of these over VT. Don't make them go to JMU just to stay instate.
