🤔

You just answered your own question.


I have worked in admissions in other contexts, not UVA. But simply put, the females are more qualified. Period.

NP. "More qualified" where the definition of "qualified" involves higher grades and substantially more emphasis on grades over test scores.

A lot harder. All the data is on the blog site every year. For in-state, 25%+ acceptance rate in EA and around 15% in RD.

Different applicant pools, though.

For sure. At our school, UVA RD is recommended if you need the admissions office to see fall grades

UVA has already filled 1,282 spots in the ED round. That leaves 2,688 spots for the EA and RD round combined. The yield is much higher for in state kids.


Is the data out yet on the number of ED applications received? Do ED applicants get deferred? and thus thrown back into the EA pool?

Yes - data has been out for months. Yes, ED can get deferred, but it is to RD and not EA.

And when you post your accept/deny/deferred results, please provide your STATS for SCHEV comparison purposes.

Thanks!

What is the madness? Applications in general?

are there stats for % deferred that end up getting accepted?

About what is the (historic) split between accept/defer/deny.
Just wondering if this is like Michigan where they deny very few.

This is from 2023 - the last year they had deferrals. About 9% for in-state and 3.5% for OOS.

Defers and Waiting List
VA Deferred applications reviewed: 2,439
VA Deferred applications offered admission: 217 (72 last year)
OOS Deferred applications reviewed: 4,934
OOS Deferred applications offered admission: 180 (83)

I don't remember the admit/defer/deny split, but last year kids were denied.

In 2023:

In state EA - 27% accepted, 50% rejected, 23% deferred
OOS EA - 12% accepted, 68% rejected, 20% deferred
