| Is Va tech typically a harder admit oos? It’s hard to tell from these responses! |
Anonymous
I think it's an easier admit from OOS - they want those tuition dollars! My DD got in last year from MCPS but rejected from UMD. |

not sure if it's harder, feels easier i think... it's very popular this year from our mcps school, 1.5 times more than last year. |

Vtech Waitlist 2026 FAQ - [url]https://admit.vt.edu/www/documents/2026%20FY%20Waitlist%20FAQ.pdf [/url] What are my chances for selection from the waitlist? We cannot make a final decision until all the responses from applicants offered admission are returned. Therefore, we cannot answer questions about your chances of being selected for admission at this time. This year Virginia Tech received more than 58,000 applications and we expect 7,251 students to accept our offer and enroll. If we have fewer than 7,251 students accept our offer, we will offer admission to some of the students who chose to remain on our waitlist. What is Virginia Tech’s history of selecting students from the waitlist? In 2025, we were able to offer 4,485 applicants from the waitlist. In 2024, we were able to offer 1,517 applicants from the waitlist. In 2023, we were unable to offer any applicants from the waitlist. In 2022, we were able to offer 2,458 applicants from the waitlist. In 2021, we were able to offer 3,286 applicants from the waitlist. In 2020 we were able to offer 3,961 applicants from the waitlist. In 2019 we were unable to make any offers. As you can see, the number of students ultimately receiving offers from the waitlist is highly unpredictable and varies each year. Vtech is saying they received 58,000 applications and expect 7,251 acceptances, which is ~12.5% They don't say how many students they sent acceptances. |

[url]https://admit.vt.edu/www/documents/2026%20FY%20Waitlist%20FAQ.pdf [/url] How will I be notified of my final decision regarding the waitlist and when will I be notified? If you select to remain on the waitlist, you will be notified by email of your final admission status. You will be notified no later than July 1, 2026 but we make every effort to notify applicants on the waitlist of their final decision as soon as we are able |

As well as some with worse stats, who got in anyway. Stop acting like the high stats applicant got drowned in a sea of high stats applicants. |

My guess is they think your ki will not go there, but chose an Ivy. |

What an understatement. VT admissions screws something up every year. |
