#UVA Early Decision Notification Update!

The stated times for decisions releases are mid-December for Early Decision, mid-February for Early Action, and April 1 for Regular Decision. I'm so happy to share that we are finishing the Early Decision ahead of schedule and will post results to student portals in a couple days.


Early Decision notification will be the evening of 
Friday, December 11, 2020! 

This is official. Please do not call our office to confirm it. The decisions will be added to applicant portals in the evening so most students are checking after school hours (there are fewer people on the system after the business day is over).

I'll be able to share some statistics about the Early Decision process tomorrow. As always, I'm happy to answer your questions in the comments.
