[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can also say that Legacy means nothing at UVA. We support the school for the wonderful experience that my wife and I had (we met there 25 years ago) and have gladly supported them not because we were trying to buy admissions for our children. If my kid wasn’t competitive OOS state with 1560SAT and 3.91 UGPA then they can say goodbye to our support in the future[/quote]

I am sorry for you, really I am. You have to realize though that a great many of those highly qualified OOS acceptances, deferrals and rejects are also legacies. We are not talking about small numbers. And yes they are moving away from legacies in favor of diversity, that’s just a fact.

My kid is at UVA now and the OO kids she knows are just amazing. Top scores, gpa, activities etc. and they are killing it at Uva. It’s a very competitive school and while I think your DC should have gotten in, the pool is getting more and more qualified.   My brother attended OOS back in the late 1980s and even he admits no way would he have gotten in. His Dd only got on because she was an athletic recruit and he’d be the first to say that.[/quote]
