Sadly, that’s not how prestige is determined.

Well, it is to an extent, but a 25% in-state admit rate is not prestigious. As for oos, it is a universal second choice given that kids don’t like paying private school tuition for a state flagship — hence the poor oos yield.


Of course it is. The large majority of in state students applying are at/near the top of the class and only one out of four is getting in. And the rate is that high only because of ED.

DCUM is hllarious. We’ve now gone from “UVA admission is too hard for in state students and needs to expand or reduce OOS numbers to serve the state”
to “UVA is an easy admit.”

True bc University of Tampa had an acceptance rate of 26% and I don't know if anyone would call it prestigious. Having said that, I do think that UVA is prestigious regardless of the acceptance rate.

Do you mean deferred in the EA round, to the RD round? I don’t think there’s such a thing as you describe…

She applied EA but was waitlisted


Oh wow thanks for that, I had not heard they do that. Hope it works out for her!
