[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Below a 4.4 is not a lock at UVA. The rigor will likely make up for it. But just keep that in mind. [/quote] Yes, that was part of the analysis. The GPA is the weaker piece: about 3.8 UW / estimated 4.35-4.5 W, which is not a lock for UVA, especially from NOVA and for CS/engineering. But the SAT is the opposite side of the profile. UVA’s middle 50% SAT is roughly 1410-1540, so a 1600 is above their typical enrolled range. The analysis took both into account: below the strongest GPA profile for UVA, but above the SAT range, with unusual rigor, advanced college math/CS, an upward junior-year trend, and a technical/builder profile. So I would read it as: not a UVA lock, but also not an automatic reject. The question is whether UVA ED is smart when UVA EA keeps UVA open without closing off Georgia Tech, Purdue, UIUC, Michigan, Cornell Engineering, CMU, MIT, etc. [/quote]
