People need to stop talking about “my high stats kid…..” because that never tells the whole story.


I do happen to know rigorous course load kids who did quite well, at the top of their "DCUM approved" high school - that were not accepted to UVA. Those same kids have outstanding ECs. It is not outrageous at all to think (know) that UVA practices yield protection. UVA disregards those from the top of their class, in the name of diversity. It is no secret.


But not in the ED round.


You do not know that. It is yield protection.


Yield protection isn’t possible during ED. IT IS BINDING



+1. UVA doesn't engage in yield protection. If you think it does, please provide citations.


I don't have a dog in this fight, but does any college actually provide citations that they do this?


Yes, they do. Google UVA yield. Or any other school and yield. Yield stats are often used with alums when the college is asking for money from alums

The UVA Mommas are fierce, but UVA definitely yield protects. I thought everyone knew this?

OhFFS. You can’t yield protect early decision where the yield is, by definition, a perfect 100%.
I thought UVA booster ladies could comprehend?

My friend told me the strongest students apply ED to UVA so your competition is more fierce during ED vs regular. I don’t know if that is true.

My kids won’t be applying ED to UVA but they will be for RD.

It is not necessarily the strongest, but hose most interested. Hint: UVA is looking for diversity (in an attempt to right their shameful history).

Wow. 11 pages and almost nothing that pertains to the 2023 UVA ED decisions. I wonder what that means...

+1. But even for EA and RD, I have seen nothing to demonstrate that UVA yield protects. Virginia Tech does, UVA does not.

Nothing. It's actually been pretty tame at UVA compared to other campuses. And UVA started a task force on the matter four days ago so is being preemptive.

The yield protection boosters seemingly can't produce a single piece of evidence.
