[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I’m sorry your rejection still stings. And no, UVA is nowhere near it’s peak. In state AmazonHQ2 Kids and Nestle HQ kids will see to that. Survival of the fittest. Marginal applicants will be devoured.[/quote]

I guess the last thing you can count on is somebody actually reading a thread before commenting.  I notice that the "sorry you're rejection still stings" remark is a constant refrain on UVA threads.

Will someone please tell me where all [b]these stellar new applicants are going to come from[/b], the ones who are going to make UVA the new Harvard?  They're certainly not in Virginia.  Oh yes, Amazon is going to bring them.  I suppose UVA's continued ascendancy explains the decline in the number of RD apps this year, yes?[/quote]

Here's where the "stellar applicants" are coming from should you need them:

1) There will always be demand for in-state tuition
2) That demand will continue to increase as our nation's privates continue to up their fees, year after year.
3) NoVA is growing.  Look at Amazon and Tysons.
4) UVA's application pool grows every year
6) UVA's reputation keeps jumping on the rankings,which, in turn attracts more students.
7) The students understand the rules and work harder and harder earlier in their lives to rack up the awards,GPA and scores
8) There are 10,000 other UVA-quality students on the waitlist for the 6000+ accepted students for 2022.  They have to go somewhere else.  But if you want to know where they are - that's where the next tranche of UVA students could be.
9) UVA's applications have been up every year over the last decade.  2020's EA batch was up by 5%.  https://news.virginia.edu/content/uva-sees-record-number-early-action-applications[/quote]
