Hey guys, went complete this weekend, UVa's probably my top choice, so hopefully I'll see you guys in Charlottesville next year.

Means nothing. I have had this for as long as I can remember.

+1

I had this both before and after being accepted. It is really nothing.

Don't you find out about TFA today or tomorrow, possibly making this entire process moot for you? Or do schools do two-year deferrals?

Kronk · Post by **Kronk** » Mon Nov 09, 2009 2:38 pm

Yeah, I do find out tomorrow. But they all do two year deferrals, even Yale, so I would consider that. Although it might be smarter to reapply in two years and hope TFA gets me into Stanford or Yale or nets me some more money at a school like UVA. Who knows. Either way, every since I realized UVA had started making decisions, I've been paranoid (also since I looked at the LSN graphs and noticed the rampant YP).

I applied September 1st; I feel your pain! Haven't heard a thing since I got the status checker.

Well you're definitely-without-a-doubt-no-chance-of-alternate-fate getting YP'ed, T14. I'm just almost-certainly-but-with-hope-of-not getting YP'ed.

Some have received Scholarship info, and some have not. I don't think we've definitely assured that if you didn't get a scholarship in the packet, you won't ever get any.

my status date changed today, did this happen to anyone else? it seems like this doesn't mean anything though, right?

I have no idea what their reasons for changing the status date might be, but mine didn't change.

Did either of you write a "Why Virginia?"

Kronk · Post by **Kronk** » Tue Nov 10, 2009 2:09 am

No. I didn't even know that was an option (sending an extra essay to a school that doesn't ask / require it) until a few weeks ago.

No "Why UVA" letter for me either - however, I am a VA resident and already submitted proof that I was an in-state resident (per their request), so that may have shown them I was very interested.

+1, and I had family go there for undergrad. I figured that was reason enough without writing a Why Virginia.

crap, is it customary to write one for non-residents? I mean, there wasn't a prompt anywhere...
