On month 3 myself. I did get a date change in January but nothing came of it.

Does UVA call all accepted applicants?

What are the chances of being accepted on the last day possible of ED? IS that completely unheard of??

[ryank1993]

I remember seeing the answer to my question somewhere earlier on this thread, but I completely forget where it was.

Can someone inform me as to what these UR1, UR2, UR3 status changes mean? My first status date was 2/1, then 2/11, and then today changed to 2/12. I applied Early Binding.

Thanks!

I'm not sure. But remember that they have 15 business days, not 15 days. So you probably have more time than you think.

Would you mind sharing when you went complete? UR1 since 1/21 and I'm sweating bullets.

And you are ED? That would be odd.

Just got accepted at the end of a phone interview! Went complete 12/02 and had no status change until this morning when I got an email inviting me to speak with the Assistant Dean of Admissions. LSAT:25th, GPA<25th, Solid Softs, URM.

Ah, no, sorry - should have read earlier in the thread.

Congrats! I appreciate the way UVA works.

So, if I were to send in a "Why UVA" since I've been under review since November. Would I just send it to the admissions office email with a short note thanking them for their consideration? Should I include an updated resume? Who do I address the email to? Could I be more neurotic?

I called the admissions office and asked them if I could submit a "Why UVA" essay (I'd only been UR for about a week though). She encouraged it and asked that I attach it as a PDF to the admissions email address and they would add it to my file. I don't see why it could hurt anything at this point.

Awesome, thanks!

I might do that this week then, too. Anything to try to get some movement from them one way or the other.

I sent them an updated resume last week, also seemed happy to accept it.

So did you just write it up as a PDF titled "Why UVA?" and email it in to them?

It was in the same format that I did all of my essays: with my name, LSAC Account # and title ("Why UVA?" Essay in this case) as a header in the upper right corner. It was a one-page essay that I turned into a PDF and attached to the email.

Just got asked to interview with the Assistant Dean of Academic Services & Registrar (kind of a mouthful)!

I can only assume this is very good news... Has anyone else received a similar email? It also doesn't specify what kind of interview it is, but I'm assuming it's over the phone/skype?

I just recently had this interview. You can PM me for details if you'd like.

When did you go UR?
