[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the Lehigh tour in June the admissions officer said twice “You are helping your application by just sitting here in this hot tent.”

Yes, compared to the years right before covid NOT visiting in person will hurt you less but it still helps at many schools.

At our high school’s college parent night, the UVA person said that now because everything is offered virtually they expect students to have more contact than ever with admissions officers, especially via email exchanges. [/quote]

See, here you are absolutely, 100 percent spreading misinformation.  UVA could not be more clear to its applicants that they do not consider demonstrated interest AT ALL when evaluating applications.  AT ALL.  So far as they are concerned, by applying you are demonstrating interest.

Here's the proof from the school itself.

Q:  Does is matter if a student has a "demonstrated interest" in UVA before applying?

A:  UVA does not use demonstrated interest at all.

This is made perfectly clear more recently here:

It is also made abundantly clear on UVA's Common Data Set.

If you're not going to take them at their word, you're a conspiracy theorist.   [/quote]
