Well, I think it's the opposite. The schools that need to send swag are worried about yield. UVA is not because most rational people see its quality and don't make decisions based on who sends a bumper sticker.

Some rational people do indeed, decline uva. OP, maybe your DC doesn’t want to go to college with people like this and connected to such arrogance forever. Other universities are catching up.

I didn't say it was irrational to decline. I said it was irrational to decline a great school based on not getting enough swag.

In-state 58%

2025 Yield
In-state 62%

Yield went up slightly for each. We'll see how that holds up this year with the application changes.

This makes sense in light of cost. I’m actually surprised Va yield is so high with the way this board talks, but maybe that’s the Maryland contingent talking.

yield includes ED. Remove ED in state and yield is below 40%

How does removing the cohort that affirmatively wants to go to UVa from the outset generate a more accurate yield?

I think they just really, really want their statement that yield is going down to be correct even though someone else has the numbers showing the opposite.

Don't go. Throw your money away. Nobody cares.

I don't think there's anything humble about it.

It might be a veiled brag. But it's not humble.
