DD got rejected for poli sci. 4.0/4.8, 1480 at a competitive MD public HS. Not super surprised but still a little disappointing. UVA has such a lovely campus.

Obviously, you know very little about UVA.

They clearly know nothing. UVA is a state-supported PRIVATE school. Yes, I said it. UVA is an elite private university.

Agree 100%. I don’t know why they pay so much OOS for a public school

At my child’s school those peers also have great applications. I have no idea how they pick one great kid over another. For every amazing kid who got an acceptance tonight there’s an amazing kid who didn’t.
It does all work out in the end. I mean, if your absolute dream is UVA do the community college associate’s degree route and transfer.


+1.

Following

from ED and from EA … for both


Negligible RD, slight more if they subsequently get put on wl, and it winds up being a year with decent wl movement.

Deferred, my DC got deferred. In at their first choice already, will be withdrawing their app/opt out of RD consideration. OOS. 1530 SAT, 3.9 uw gpa high rigor, excellent ECs that demonstrated commitment and leadership. Tough year for OOS EA. Lesson is, if first choice and OOS, go ED if they continue not to require supplemental essays

Congrats to all who got in!
