[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UVA - 18% Asian, 6% Multi-racial W&M - 12% Asian, 7% Multi-racial VT - 11% Asian, 5% Multi-racial In Virginia, the demographic is 7% Asian and 3% Multi-racial. There are no disadvantages to applying as an Asian or White/Asian student. This disadvantage lies in applying for popular majors, like engineering and computer science or medicine. Most Asians are applying to those competitive majors. That is the issue at play. [/quote] I think at W&M, you do not apply by major, at UVA, you apply by college, and at VT, you do apply by major.[/quote] At all of the above schools, you indicate your intended major. (And it absolutely is a data point in your application, even though they might not "hold you to intended major.")[/quote] That is very different than applying to a major.[/quote]
