I love UVA, and will be in this class. Can't wait to meet you guys. Best of luck to all those waiting for a decision!
Congratulations man. This is a big moment.

Has anyone got a link to the spreadsheet for UVA this cycle? I know Michigan has one on page one of their thread that people have begun filling out, but I didn't see one for UVA.

Someone should start a UVA Class of 2020 thread.

Sounds like your first duty as class president pro tempore. Your duties may also include buying drinks for members of the class who are older than you.

The mods would have to make a class of 2020 forum first.

Received an invitation from Dean Faulk to attend a dinner with him and Grace Cleveland in a "very small gathering" in NYC. Anyone else going?! So thrilled to be included!

Congrats on the scholarship!! Did you write a why UVA? My application is at UR2 (submitted about two weeks ago) now but there is no interview request yet. Just realized UVA has this huge yp thing... wondering whether it might be a good idea to email them a why UVA over the weekend?!

I didn't write one. They'll ask in your interview though.

Thanks a lot for the info! Didn't do enough research before submitting the app, but I do like UVA a lot so hopefully an extra why essay won't be counterproductive in any way...also hopefully I do get to interview eventually

Also if you don't mind sharing—when did you apply and what was the timeline like? (for example for UR1, UR2 and interview, if you were keeping track)

Submitted 10/21, RD complete soon thereafter, interview offer 11/16, admitted at the end of the interview today (11/18)

I didn't write a Why UVA letter. My app went complete 10/17, interviewed around 11/11, status checker changed to admitted a few days later.
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
