August 7 is the disbursement date that is on the SIS website.

im bored too and hoping to see some convo in here

option 1:

so funnyish typical story...my roomie is subleasing her room to a "prelaw" 2nd year and he saw my UVA folder. He asks where else did you get in? Knowing he was from NY (said it like 20 times the first time I met him), I said Cornell. He yells, "WHAT why arent you going there?!" I did the nice thing and said that I felt UVA was a better fit and that it is a peer school of Cornell, and arguably much better. I was of course thinking of several not so nice things to say to Mr. NY...what would you have said?

option 2:

anybody know how far you have to live from campus to be allowed to have a parking permit?

I enjoy the sunlight?

Anything on Arlington Blvd or Ivy Gardens is no car. Not sure about Huntington Village. I think those are the only places.

i'm not sure what to say to that ... i once had to dig my gf's car out of a foot of snow and ice with just the snow scrapper, i wasn't very happy but she was

I do think this thread could use a little lengthening.

re: cars - my understanding is that arlington blvd / ivy gardens / othercloseplaces can still get permits to park on <s>campus</s> grounds, just not 'close' (wish i had more specifics).

Yeah, I'm sick of all this chit-chat. We've gone over the same things over and over again, and there are so many pages, it's close to impossible to find info for reference.... so I guess there's nothing left to do but ask again and go further into detail.

That's news to me.

In other news, Aetna has updated their UVA page, for those who are interested in the school provided health care. Details about their insurance package will be available in July.

i had a junior here explain their master plan for applying to law school after I said I was going to UVA. basically it boiled down to something like georgetown was their target with like UVA and chicago as safeties. i facepalmed.

Georgetown is overrated. It's still a great school, but it seems like people think it's like Harvard. I guess if I wanted to impress non-lawyers I would have gone there.

Sigh. I'm reading this therad and it makes me want to go to UVA even more

Ummm... parking at Jeffersonian (and other places on Arlington) is closer to the law school than pretty much all campus parking except the parking immediately surrounding the law school.

I would SERIOUSLY consider looking at Anthem insurance plans before purchasing the student health plan. There are advantages and disadvantages to both Anthem and the UVA Aetna UVA plan, but overall the Anthem plans are all much cheaper.
