UVA - 19 offers to Architecture

https://admission.virginia.edu/waitlist

5/1/2026 Update: On Friday, May 1, the University extended 19 offers of admission to students on the waiting list for first-year admission to the School of Architecture. Students who receive an offer will be notified by email and can view their updated status in the MyUVA Application Portal.

Over the next month, we will continue to monitor our class and make additional offers of admission as necessary.

We are grateful for your continued interest in UVA and recognize the patience and care that come with remaining on the waiting list. We wish you the very best as you finish the school year and move toward the next chapter of your academic journey.

I know it’s not as selective as some, but DS got off the JMU waitlist yesterday.

Virginia tech moved.

Hopkins moved.

I heard that some GT waitlisted students received Global Pathway acceptances.

Multiple UF WL reports of email update yesterday that the class 2030 is closed. Sounds like they overenrolled. Bust out the quad converted doubles!

DD's close friend is a sophomore at UF. I'm stunned how many online classes she's taken from her room.

So cool! Congrats!! My oldest got off a competitive WL a few years ago and I remember the surprise and excitement!

The UF yield rate at my son’s school is infinitely higher this year compared to last year! Perhaps they’ll cut back on the number of admits next year?

I understand their overall admit rate already was <20% last cycle.

Congratulations, PP!!! I am happy for your kid! Which schools will your kid decline?

Saying bye to Northwestern (where she was planning to attend before this) and UVA. I’ve never seen her this happy! She felt super jaded after RD, not out of disappointment with her options but because she invested a lot of time and energy into her Princeton application, but was deferred and denied. She had fallen into the “dream school” trap. But, Duke was her second choice! Applied as an Art History and Sociology major to Duke which I assume helped since they’re looking for more humanities kids.

Congrats to your DC! My DC is also on the waitlist. How did you know they were looking for Humanities kids? I feel mine is doomed now because she indicated a double major of Biology and Theology.

NP. I believe the president made remarks about how they're looking to strengthen their humanities programs and have more kids engaged in them. I can't find the article but someone posted a quote in a different thread.

I wouldn't stress it too much.

Aren’t all humanities undersubscribed majors anyway?
