[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Virginia schools did not utilize their waitlists much at all, except to offer OOS candidates admission.  And because those OOS candidates were dealing with waitlists in their own states they accepted Virginia admissions.  Just look at the area instagram pages for each senior class and what you will see are so many Loudoun County and Fairfax County kids going to out of state schools in the fall (Penn State, UPitt, U Michigan, Clemson, South Carolina, UGA, Tennessee, etc).  Big out of state numbers for this graduating class.  And this will impact rising seniors as well.  If you are a high achieving kid you better take the SAT's and try and get OOS scholarships because in state Virginia schools are going to be tough to get into for a few years.  And race didn't play into many of these admissions decisions.  Look at TJ- so many kids going out of state who didn't get into Virginia schools.  This was just a rough year.  If you aren't happy where you end up you can always transfer.  [/quote]

This exactly!  forget the waitlists.  In the old days waitlists gave kids hope.  This year they were just a gut punch to disappointment.  [/quote]
