ugh... got the email from Dean Trujillo requesting that I call... oh well, guess we'll see in the morning.avacado111 wrote:actually, they may call you if they want you to retake, or to tell you something about your file.

I REALLY hope this is because I'm accepted instead of W/L...My status did not change to "Congratulations" like those who've been accepted...
Oh god, I must go watch some The Office to get my mind out of this...

Re: UVA 2010, RD
hm, not really. The lsat was low. The dean asked her to take the lsat again. A lot of people who apply ED get waitlisted and then asked to retake. I think someone on this fourm said that a dean at UVA asked him/her to take the lsat again (in Dec and score a 170) and then they would be off the waitlist. If you have time you should search it.gotmilk? wrote:that's kinda a ridiculous thing to say to someone...

Re: UVA 2010, RD
Damn, I got a call like 30 minutes after I left my house today, I take my cell phone with me 99% of the time, but this time I didn't. Got an e-mail and a voice mail asking me to give a call to the University. Man, I've been wanting this call for... well, the better part of a decade, honestly, and now I gotta wait at least another 12 hours. Still, it feels good, hope I'm in the 99% for whom a call means good news.

TITCR. I believe no one with both numbers below median got in last year (3.84-/169-), while every 3.85+ or 170+ applicant got in ED.jawsthegreat wrote:crackberry wrote:A couple 168, 3.9 RD out-of-staters have been admitted already this cycle, thus rendering this theory tenuous at best.jawsthegreat wrote:No, look at LSN from last year nobody with a 169 got accepted with lower than a 3.85 GPA, and this year is even more competitive. I hate to be a downer but based on numbers alone you look like a wait list or reject. Now if you have some WE or softs that we don't know about that could change everything.avacado111 wrote:i think it may be close to an in than a waitlist with a good ps/why uva.
Regardless Good Luck, I really do hope you get in.
How does the fact two people with a 3.9 getting admitted weaken the theory that you need a GPA of at least 3.85 to avoid a wait list with less than a 170? If you have a 3.85 or greater you have a solid chance with a 168 or 169 but below that its a wait list. Look at LSN this year has anyone with below a 170 been admitted with below a 3.85? No. To imply that the odds of anything but a WL is likely, unless there are some softs or WE, is simply giving false hope IMO.

Got the call, in at UVA. First non-safety acceptance, and my top realistic choice, I think. Great way to start the weekend!
What's the deal with financial aid? Only a couple of people are reporting any on LSN, is that just for named scholarships?

While you were on the phone, he didn't happen to mention that they are sitting on my app because my PS is so special that they want to cherish it just a bit longer, did he?

Re: UVA 2010, RD
sooo if I had gotten any merit aid, the dean would have told me during my phone call right?
i really don't expect it cuz my #s are fairly low for UVA...oh well.
I'm excited for my admissions packet, I hope it comes in the mail today!

I believe so, yes. I think one of the UVA 1Ls mentioned something about finaid being determined in the Feb-March time period otherwise.
