The Office of Institutional Assessment is the source of all official statistics about UVA. They take a census to determine the final statistics for the class. You can see official admission data in the data digest part of their website.
Here are some unofficial numbers about the Early Decision process. These numbers were up to date on Friday morning. If you are a reporter, please contact the Office of University Communications for current, official information and all of your reporterly needs. :)
Early Decision Applications
Total number of Early Decision applications: 2,159Total number of VA apps: 1,165
Total number of OOS apps: 994
We use completed applications in our statistics.
Early Decision Offers
Overall offers: 748Total VA offers: 466 (40% offer rate)
Total OOS offers: 282 (28% offer rate)
Enrollment Goal: ~3,750
This means 20% of the class will have come from the Early Decision round.
It's misleading to average these offer rates together because residency is a major factor in our review. If you are going to share these numbers, cite BOTH offer rates.
Early Decision Defers
Overall defers: 570Total VA defers: 334
Total OOS defers: 236
Deferred students are no long bound by Early Decision agreements. Read more about deferral here (this link is in all defer letters).
A couple notes:
1. I do not have additional statistics. We are already immersed in the Early Action review process and I have to read files!2. Enrollment deposits are due by January 1st.
3. Admitted students will get a paper copy of the offer letter by mail.
4. The Echols, Rodman, and College Science Scholars program invitations will be extended at the end of the Regular Decision process. Echols and Rodman also allow self-nomination after your first semester.
