Off the top of my head I haven't heard of many people getting UR2s but I can't search the thread for it since UR2 is only 3 characters.
I went UR1 on 11/23 and then UR2 on 12/15. No interview or decision yet.

I'm stuck in the limbo! UR1 in mid November and no UR2. Still haven't heard anything. I don't think many people also stuck in limbo have hit UR2 recently.

Also curious

Don't really understand uva's process behind awarding scholarships so far
from what I can tell, FinAid looks to be about 2-3 months behind admissions
Not really considering there are a bunch of sept admits who have heard nothing while others admitted much later have gotten offers
Admitted in September and haven't heard anything. Seems like they've only awarded the big $ and are going down from there. Gotten $ from other schools and wondering if and when I should alert UVA of these offers (after I hear definitively from them? proactively?)

It's still January. I wouldn't be too hasty to start asking about money. Deposits aren't due until April or May for most schools.

Probably best to wait and see what their initial offer is. It could be higher than you think and with the considerations of your other schools they might lowball you (I don't think they would, but they have that option). Also, you then lose most negotiating power as you have already shown them your hand.

For people who have received scholarship offers in the past 1-2 weeks, had you already filled out NEEDACCESS?

Still sitting at UR1 since 12/2. UVA was a bit of a reach for me but I'm still not feeling optimistic at this point.

I've seen at least one September admit offered fairly substantial $, so I'm not feeling optimistic about my chances of getting a large scholarship. Guess I'll probably end up having to wait until March to see my offer (or lack thereof).

I was feeling the same way, but I got a big one last week. I think they still have plenty of offers to send out :)

Mine came w/ acceptance letter too. I had already submitted FAFSA & NA, but I don't think it factored in at all.

Thought on trying to negotiate for more scholarship $$ with UVA?

Nope. I intend to, but they sent me a scholarship offer with my acceptance letter automatically.

Did you get accepted on a Saturday or are you just late posting it. I consider my weekends to be days off from waiting. Lol

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
