[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So does my white son have an easier or harder time getting into UVA today?[/quote] If you are full pay you have a strong chance. I’m pretty torn by SC decision. I do believe underrepresented groups should be given an opportunity. Many attend poor school districts where the level of instruction does not set them up to meet competitive admissions metrics. But as a parent of an OS white son who was waitlisted this year (1560 SAT, 4.61 WGPA), I know it was the fact we could only contribute maybe $35000-$40000 was the reason he was waitlisted over others. So I was disappointed for him at the time but we’ve moved on.[/quote] You don’t “know” any such thing. UVA is need blind in admissions. [/quote]
