Virginia Tech does not participate in yield protection.

Lying liars!! 100% lies.

One look at TJ scattergram would put to rest this lie.

The top TJ students who all get into T20, get accepted to UVA and are rejected by V Tech.

VT is not doing anything wrong, as none of these kids have any intention of going to V Tech. That is fair. What is wrong is the lying to the face by VT that they do not yield protect.

We applied in 2025 cycle and after looking at the scattergram did not apply to VT. Got in to a HYP and UVA and he would nearly certainly have been rejected by VT.

If none of those kids have any intention of going to VT, why are they applying?

Do you think perhaps they also didn't put much time and effort into the VT essays?

I know VT admissions staff personally. It is related to my job. They do not yield protect. They do not care about yield - it is not a ranking motivator for them. If it were, they would have kept ED - best yield protection there is.
