Different poster but there was some alumni communication that said they had received 73K or something similar by mid Dec and it's reasonable to assume that they got to 90K when it was all said and done because RD kids likely had not submitted by mid Dec.

6.7% decrease in OOS applicants.

Found the article: "As of mid-December, UVA had already surpassed the number of total applications it received last year: 70,133 compared with 64,457. It will continue to receive applications for the regular decision cycle until Jan. 5. "

This person has made that claim before and it's not cited anywhere. It's a gross exaggeration and wishful thinking.

Didn't people post VT decisions last week? So VT came out before UVA? That has never happened

VT used AI as one reader this year, so presumably cut their time by almost half.

EA supposed to be very competitive round. Wonder where that will leave the deferred students with the Rd pool.

It came out even 2 weeks before its projected early decisions (with AI included.)

Good luck to all the DMV parents with their state flagships (UVA and UMD) coming out on Friday! Great schools at a discount 😃
