I got my scholarship info a few days after being accepted (was accepted in 1/31). Not sure why they'd send me my scholly info and not people who were admitted back in 2016

That's very interesting. I was accepted in early OCTOBER and still no movement on scholarships. Was told that scholarship info would be sent out in early March. Did you get a really fantastic amount of money or something?

Not really. Got 55k which was pretty much what I expected

Per year or total?

Total. If I got 55k a year that would certainly classify as fantastic amount of money lol

Got a $60k merit scholarship today to use on top of GI Bill, which was a very pleasant surprise. Financial aid committee is still working for those who are wondering. Admitted early/mid-November (can't remember exactly).

Thank you for the update. Makes me feel like they haven't forgotten about me

Are they going to classify it as a living stipend so you get to keep it? Also, how were you notified?

Yes, I called to clarify and they said they take that into account for vets so you don't just lose it (otherwise I was going to give it back). I was notified by a letter in the mail today; it's probably online too, but I haven't checked that.

That's amazing! Getting paid 20k a year + housing to go to a T-10 school is awesome. Hopefully I'll hear something about scholarships soon.

Interview requested, which is nice I guess. I assumed they had forgotten about me. I applied Mid-November.

[RParadela]

Are applicants interviewed by the same person who requests the interview?

That was the case for me so I assume it is for everyone else

That is awesome! Congrats. I didn't know uva did this for Vets. Do you mind posting your stats? I'm applying next cycle and uva is the dream.

172/3.6. A lot of work experience and some good military-related softs. I wasn't really expecting anything, so it was a nice bonus on top of everything else. Good luck to you, but if you're nukes you're gonna kill it.

Does everyone get a "curveball" question in the interview? I saw some asking for the worst day of their lives, etc. What have others' experiences been?

I think that was Chicago. That was a little more intense. But UVA seems to be the standard: why law, why uva, etc.
