You may have seen our tweets and Instagram posts about UVA having a higher than usual yield on offers of admission this year. We were able to make a few offers to students on the waiting list, but it's become clear that there will be no movement in certain parts of the class.
This evening, an email is going out closing the waiting lists for the College of Arts and Sciences, School of Engineering, School or Architecture, and School of Nursing.
After considering the size of the first-year class and the spaces available in the student body, I regret to inform you that we will not be able to offer you admission this year. Our first-year class is full and I believe it would be unfair to keep your name on the waiting list any longer.
We sincerely appreciate your interest in the University of Virginia and wish you the best of luck in all of your future endeavors. If you are interested in pursuing the possibility of transferring to the University after one or two years in another college or university, please visit our transfer page to learn more about this process.
Sincerely,
Greg W. Roberts
Dean of Admission
University of Virginia
We are keeping the [tiny] waiting list for the Kinesiology program open in case of cancellations.
I know this is disappointing news for many of you. I hope you can
look at your chosen school and move forward with you plans to go there
with excitement. Thank you so much for being part of this blog. Best wishes for a wonderful summer and exciting start to your college career!
