[quote=Anonymous]Oy it isn't yield protection. UVA does not yield protect. But it does take a lot of out-of-state students (a much higher percentage than comparable state schools). And it does feel a responsibility to limit how many students from Northern Virginia so that it can take some from the Rest of Virginia. And it, of course, limits how many it takes from a particular high school in NOVA. These are not quotas or hard limits but they are a reality and it hurts TJ more than any other school, then probably the most high performing HS in Virginia (the McLeans and Langleys) and then of course the private high schools. All of those schools have far more applicants who would likely be accepted if they were from Roanoke than those who actually get in. In other words, it is not yield protection, it is that your peers are very strong. It feels unfair but that is the reality in a lot of schools.[/quote]
