[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any other UVA alums get the letter we just got? Basically, it said we're so glad your kid applied but just so you know, they do not get any special treatment and don't expect them to get in at all given how competitive it is. But we appreciate your loyalty to the school! FWIW, we already knew this and so were not expecting much. We just thought the letter was interesting. Also wondering if they send this to everyone or should this be taken as an "unlikely" letter? We did not get the same letter a few years ago when older kid applied there. [/quote] [b] You got Trumped [/quote][/b] Don't be stupid. This goes to alums of kids who have applied. The Virginia House of Delegates outlawed legacy admissions at all Commonwealth schools about two years ago. This letter addresses that and (it is hoped) alum parents won't call admissions and askfor preferential treatment - just in case they don't know - which apparently you didn't.[/quote]
