There are years of posts here. The search box works well, but please consider the age of the posts when you find them. The college admission process changes every year!

References to emailing updates to your application are from the years when we didn't have the current applicant portal. Please follow the instructions in your portal to submit all updates.

Welcome to the blog and thanks for reading!

#UVA Early Action Update

Let's just get to the reason you clicked through.

Early Action notification will be
Friday, February 10, 2023
This is official. Please do not call our office to confirm it. 


Where are the decisions posted?
You will see a place to view your decision when you log into your applicant portal. Remember that your applicant portal is different from SIS. You received login information for the portal back when you applied.

Decisions are not sent by email, but we will send an email out once decisions are posted in portals. 


What time will decisions show up?
The decisions will get posted all at once to portals in the early evening. There's a technical team runs several processes to get the portals updated and I can't predict the exact time that they'll finish their work.


Why is the portal changing? Is it a sign of my decision?
The portal will look a little different throughout the day as the technical team prepares for the release. The changes are not tied to your decision. 

As always, I'll have a post with admission statistics to share in the coming days. 


This post is about Early Action decisions. Regular Decision notification will happen by April 1st.
