No, I don't think it asked if you "accept the WL offer" or anything like some other schools

Thank you for your patience during our wait list process. Our first deposit deadline has passed and we now know we will make few wait list offers this summer. Therefore, we are releasing you from our wait list.
We thank you for your interest in UVA Law and for your patience throughout the admissions process. We wish you all the best for your studies at your chosen law school and in your legal career.

Sincerely,
Cordel Faulk

Director of Admissions

Didn't send in a LOCI

Just got an update e-mail for the waitlist telling us they aren't expecting to pull many people, if any, from it this year.. But to stay in touch with them and they will keep us updated.

Hmm. I just got a "weekly waitlist update."

Sorry to everyone who was released

+1
Interesting that I made it out of the shooting range. Maybe they're just reloading another magazine...

i got the weekly update as well. to be frank, it was kind of off-putting. i will probably be withdrawing.

Got the weekly update. Given what they said, I decided to withdraw. Hope it helps one of you.

This is especially surprising given the significant WL movement that happened last year, not just at UVA but across the board. Guess UVA over-corrected for that.

Condolences to those released.

Riding this one to the wire - I'll show up on the first day of class if they call me.

I actually liked the email (not the content so much, but the way it communicated the information).
I thought it was very forward, direct, and forthcoming.
The email definitely helped me to calibrate my expectations.

Still in it, but that update email is very pessimistic.

It's says they find it helpful to know who wants to continue to remain under consideration. Are guys going to send an additional letter or email (I've already sent a LOCI)?

Yeah, sending another LOCI, but I have new stuff to talk about.

mostly i'm just annoyed about the LOR comment. they should have said that w/ the initial waitlist email, before my very nice professor wasted his time =P
