The Office of Undergraduate Admission reviews all applicants to the College of Arts & Sciences and the School of Engineering for three scholars programs: Echols, Rodman, and College Science Scholars.
Our first round of review is complete! If we are inviting you to one of the programs, you will see a short note in your MyUVA Application Portal now. An email will go out around 5 PM. This round included students from the Early Decision and Early Action pools.
The second round of invitations will include students from all three rounds and will be posted after the conclusion of the Regular Decision process. If we have space available after May 1st, we may extend a few more invitations.
You can also apply to join these programs in the second semester of your first year.
Less than 5% of students in the College of Arts and Sciences and School of Engineering are invited to join these programs. You can read more about them on their websites. In addition to showing exceptional academic records, scholars show a love of learning and an extraordinary commitment to academic pursuits beyond the classroom. We see this in transcripts, recommendations, essays, and activities. The review for the scholars programs is not driven by GPAs or test scores.
Congratulations to our first group of scholars for the Class of 20!
