UVA Class of 2013 Forum

[monkey on your back]

So there is a local homebrew shop? This is something I was worried about. Or do I have to convert to online ordering?

There wasn't one when I was last there (kind of a big omission, I know) but there are a enough brewers in the community that there should be. One nice thing about Cville is that, with so many orchards and farms nearby, it’s really easy to get your hands on fresh, non-malt fermentables (honey, berries, cider), if you're feeling adventurous.

I'm sure you guys have found these already but in case you haven't: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SWA47jga ... re=channel

There is a whole series on everything UVA Law related. Pretty cool. If I don't get into Chicago ED then I'll be at the March ASW.

So I got accepted to UVA, and I was thinking about attending.

Question: what is the cheapest place to get a single bedroom apt? I don't mind walking/comuting to the law school. ALso, is it better to get an apartment now or last min (to save money?) Thanks!

Last minute (as in, days before law school starts) is usually when you can get the best deals. The farther you live away from the law school/the Corner/downtown, the cheaper the apartments will be generally.

is it pretty easy to find plenty apartments days before school starts?

Thanks! A question to current UVa law students... about when did you hear from UVa regarding scholarship/aid? I'd like to know for sure where I'm going and have the relocating process handled long before summer.

I actually went and asked for an update in person during ASD and was told there that I was getting a (small) scholarship and to expect something in the mail about it shortly. So, around ASD is when I'd expect to hear back on it.

Hey how tough is it to live in the Range? It seems like an awesome place to live and the ideal place for someone with my tastes/preferences.

What is "the Range"? I've been here for a few months and I've never heard of it.

It seems like an awesome place to live and fits what I'm looking for perfectly. Maybe I shouldn't have mentioned as you have to apply and I haven't heard a lot of people on here mention it.......

I just got accepted ED so I'll be in Charlottesville come fall 2010! I know nothing. When is ASD? Also, yay or nay on showing my full sleeve of tattoos on the first day of class?

Last year they had two ASDs which gave potential students a lot of flexibility. Both were in March, I think. There were travel stipends available which were based on how far away you were (you got more if you were travelling farther). There should be an E-mail sent to you in January with those kind of details, if they're following the pattern they used last year.

I don't know who your tattoos will impress, but then, I haven't seen them yet.

Ill go nay, not because it isnt badass, but because its more badass not to flaunt and let others talk about them when they have the amazing opportunity to see haha. Also, congratulations, feels awesome doesnt it.

[Doritos]

Thanks guys. I'm not trying to impress or be badass just unsure how a sleeve of tats will be received in a law school environment. We shall find out though because i'm going to UVA!!!
