ED filled 26% of the class. 3750*.26= 975 already committed
EA admitted 6186*.4 (blended yield) = 2474 likely students
Likely slots left for RD = 3750-975-2574=201 positions probably remaining


The enrollment goal is 3750. To achieve that, they probably offer admission to about 9000 students (for the current first year class, this number was 8420 per Dean J's blog).

That means over 5000 spaces remain for RD applicants, including those deferred during ED/EA.


Your math is wrong. Admission already offered to more than 7,000 students. So maybe another thousand or two to be offered.

Yep, I realized that and corrected it in a subsequent post. Math is clearly not my strong suit.

LOL, yes we are already at 7,966 deferments, RD will be sporty.

Wrong. ED has changed the math. ED is 100% yield, not 40%. And, they admitted more ED this year than last. 3750-975 = 2775 slots for EA/RD. Assuming both rounds have a blended yield of 40%, 2775/.4 = 6937 offers. In EA, they made 6186 offers, leaving 751 for RD.

She’s also said that EA is the strongest applicants, so you can understand giving EA the bulk of the admissions offers.

751 offers for RD to yield (40%) 300 acceptances. That is, for RD there are only 300 seats left, but they will probably admit 750 students to yield 300 enrolled students.

In the next round, UVA will consider 16,000 RD applicants and all the deferred applicants from ED and EA. Those who were deferred have to indicate that they want their application reconsidered. If half of the 8000 deferred students opt for a second review, there are 750 admits for something like 20,000 (16,000 + 8000*.5) applicants. That’s an acceptance rate of 3.75% (750/20000). Not good.

UVA had about 48,000 total applications. Broken down roughly to 31,834 ED/EA apps and 16,166 RD apps. Add in a large portion of the 7,966 EA/ED deferrals that don’t withdraw and acceptance RD is next to impossible. Very depressing.

750 out of 16,000 RD applicants + some portion of the almost 8,000 deferred applications.

So if I understand the acceptances listed; everyone has astonishingly high GPAS and ECs and everyone accepted submitted their scores, correct?

Any TJ acceptances?

I'm sure there are. But as a norm, TJ students don't really announce (if at all) until they've committed, which for many, is another 3 months away.
I guess they feel that it's bad form to publicly celebrate especially now when many have yet to find out where they land.

some apparent TJ kids mentioned UVA EA acceptances on College Confidential....
