Let the record show that UVA reject kids with perfect ACTs and only 1 or 2 Bs on their high school transcript.[/quote]

OMG, imagine having those stats and getting rejected by UVA. Kid has amazing other choices and it will all work out but that is just jaw dropping.  I hope it was not first choice.  [/quote]

It was likely as an OOS applicant which I believe would have something to do with it.  Doesn't UVA weight in-state applicants differently?[/quote]

Yes. I’m a college counselor from another state. When I moved to Virginia and first started seeing the UVA accepts roll in, i fell off my chair.  HUGE difference. [/quote]

They have to take kids from the whole state - at least a few kids sprinted throughout.  The kids in NOVA and maybe some in Richmond are the only ones worth accepting.  The rest are duds, but at least Virginia feels obligated to educate their state.  [/quote]
