The dreaded overlap continues

Remember when I mentioned that March was the start of the overlap season? Well, it's in full force right now. We have scores of admitted students on Grounds for Days on the Lawn (and we even saw one denied student wandering around during DOTL the other day), but it's also spring break at a lot of schools right now. 

Once an information session is full, it disappears from the reservation system.  So, if you are planning a last minute trip to UVa next week, please understand that all three sessions (8:30 am, 10:00 am, and 1:00 pm) are full for most days.  We added those 8:30 am sessions to handle extra visitors.




CavDog is thoroughly exhausted after going to three Days on the Lawn in four days.  He'll be rested and back in action next week.
