I am OOS UVA EA admit and I really want to know how much aid I would receive has my family makes below 55k. My first question is a.) Will my tuition be fully covered?

Another thing: I did not access my SIS portal before my acceptance letter and just found out today about the all the 1040 tax return forms I had to submit. b.) How long will I have to wait now to see how much money will be offered?

c.) Has any other admits gotten their FASFA package or offer?

Hey guys, looking to start playing more tennis this Spring and seeing if there's anyone interested in doing some casual hitting + running some sets, or knows of places to find hitting partners. I'm not up to par with the club team.

I'm pretty rusty as I've not played yet this year, but I have played a fair bit in the past just not much lately. I'm a 4th year, prob ~2.5-3.0 UTR (rough estimate).

dm if you're interested :)

Hi! I was wondering when I should start looking for apartments off-grounds if I plan to move in May? I started looking now but there doesn’t seem to be too much. Are there any recommended areas or complexes to look at that are near the hospital? I’m looking for 1 bd/1 ba or studio apartments. Thanks

I was also wondering what the chances are for being offered a on-grounds graduate apartment? I’m out of state on the other side of the country and I already emailed the housing department but they said it is competitive. Just wondering what other people’s experiences are.

Hello! I'm currently a high school junior beginning my college application process-ish.

I have a dilemma of whether I should major in biochemistry or biomedical engineering. I would appreciate some insight about both majors.

I was also wondering if choosing one over the other would hurt my chances of acceptance into UVA, as it is my dream school.

Thank you!!

I'm a prospective student and UVA is my top choice, probably committing soon. What should I know about the sports culture at UVA? Football, basketball, or anything else that you think is important.

I've been a lifelong Tech & UNC fan because of my family so it's kind of a crazy switch up haha. Never really looked into UVA sports until now.

Any games I should watch? Or lore/traditions I should know lol. Ready to be a die hard

Thank y'all! Wahoowa baby

Hello I am visiting UVA in Feb. I am Interested in engineering. Can you give me advice on an OOS advantage. Do you suggest meeting with professors?

I am looking to buy an electric scooter but new ones are too expensive. Does anyone have an electric scooter that they are looking to sell?

Hoping someone may be able help or advise - my mom has been trying to find a mental health care provider for some time and as she is on an extremely limited income (SS survivor benefit). She lives alone in Louisa County and has limited driving ability (e.g. short trips to town) due to vision problems and physical disabilities.

She has done an initial intake, in person, at UVA Psych, had a brief med trial (one of many) and was told they would refer her to a therapist for when they had availability. Recently she spoke with a mental health provider on the phone who indicated she had availability - but STRICTLY in person only. I'm perplexed since UVA has offered telepsychiatry for many years - specifically to offer services in the underserved rural areas surrounding Charlottesville. I can understand wanting to do an in-person initial visit, or even the first few visits, however not offering a telemed option to a vision-impaired geriatric patient who lives in Louisa doesn't make sense. I live in Richmond and any time I need to take her in to C'ville for appointments at North Ridge or ortho etc is a full day off work for me. It's not practical or beneficial to have to take her to the appointments when I have to drive from Richmond TO Louisa, THEN to C'ville and reverse to get back home. I can certainly call them, and plan to, but I'd like to know more about why this could be so I can be better informed when talked to their office. TIA.

hi!! i just got accepted into uva and i was wondering how requesting a roommate would work. like if i dormed at gooch, would i only be able to request my roommate in the room i stay in or would i be able to request a group of people to live in the suite? sorry if i sound dumb i dont really know that much about dorming!!!

Does anyone know some sort of cab service that goes from UVA to Dulles (preferably cheaper than Uber/Lyft). Or, can recommend another method to get to the airport ( I will be travelling during off peak hours - around 5am)

Thanks!

I'm currently a community college student planning to transfer to the School of Engineering under the guaranteed admission agreement. I received AP credit at my CC for Calculus I and II and am using it to complete my associate degree. However, I am questioning if this will fulfill my requirements for the GAA. Section II lists the courses I'm supposed to take but does not state if I can use AP credit toward them. Section I mentions that I must have a minimum number of transferable credits that aren't AP or IB, but I've met this requirement through my other coursework, so that shouldn't be an issue.

I applied to UVA computer science PhD program, I haven't been notified yet of any decision, but I know people who got their decision already, so is that a bad sign, or is the notification on a rolling basis?

Hi! I’m looking to get a us drivers license. I have done the practice tests on the dmv website but I don’t know how I would study to pass the driving test. I don’t want to enroll in the driving school through the DMV but I don’t have the time. I don’t have any family members nearby who could teach me how to drive and I don’t think any friend would lend me their car to teach me. How else can I learn how to drive?

School work can get so obnoxious at times.

Has anyone applied to the Harrison Undergraduate Research Program? How competitive is it?

I have 43 credits and a 3.75 gpa from TCC. I would apply as a second year as I don’t have all the requirements for a third year transfer. I have an A and two B’s for the second year requirements. I am currently AD navy. Do I have a realistic shot?

Hey y'all,

I got accepted into UVA to the College of Engineering and Applied Science as well as for electrical engineering at Georgia Tech. I am incredibly grateful for both opportunities since these are some of my top choices. From a financial aid situation, is it worth paying 10k or more for GT compared to UVA? Does the name carry that much weight for an engineering related degree?

Additionally, how are the internship and research opportunities at UVA? I'd like to work on radio-frequency and DSP related projects and I've heard good things about both. Should I choose GT or UVA?

Hi, I got accepted through EA YIPPIEE!! But I can't seem to find my financial aid letter/ package. It's not within/link in the letter. On the portal when I look at the admissions tab there's nothing about financial aid. When I look at the financial aid tab all there is, is the same stuff from before decisions. I can't log into SIS (never reviewed credentials). Does uva send them out later? if so, when? I've seen posts about other people and their packages and they got accepted at the same time I did.

I asked the QB sub reddit (I applied through QB) but it's no luck. :/

I'm out of state if that helps.

do you have to apply for scholarships? or are you just awarded them? i was accepted early action but the tuition is so expensive and it doesn’t say i earned any scholarships….. is there any hope?

So I got through UVA’s Undergrad School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

I am not sure if I see myself doing ChemE later, but I do like that old “Engineering + MBA” combo fleshed out in something like engineering management.

I was wondering if schools like UVA and Vanderbilt which are by no means “just decently” ranked for engineering have a slight edge over unis like UIUC and GTech, which are relatively more focused on creating future engineers. I also got accepted to UIUC’s LAS for ChemE.

Moreover, that consuming feeling of prestige kicks in when you look at UVA (on an average, only 2 kids from my school get admitted as compared to UIUC’s 7-8)

I would love to hear everyone’s thoughts provided the aforementioned, and also a bit about the culture here.

hey! i got rejected from my top choice today, but i was accepted to uva. it's def my best option, both program-wise (archaeology), and financially. i want to commit, but i'm feeling some anxiety and would love for current students to answer some questions!

1.) i do not plan on rushing and i'm not a huge fan of greek life. i'm also not very preppy. i don't doubt that uva students are incredibly kind, but i do worry about fitting in. if i avoid greek life, will i have a social life? do y'all think i'll have a hard time fitting in? don't know, just suuper worried about that 😭

2.) does the school feel as large as it is? like, do y'all feel more like numbers than students at times? i worry about the larger size as i originally planned to go to a smaller college. i fear being overwhelmed by the size for sure!

if any of y'all are in the archaeology/anthropology department, i'd appreciate any information! the programs look REALLY good and they're definitely my main pull to the school right now. i'd love to attend, i just wanted some feedback :) thank you all so much!!

I got admitted to UVA, but when I tried checking my financial aid letter, it turns out that they wanted more forms from me. However, one of the forms requires a UVA email address? I don't think I have one, and the only thing I found online was that you had to submit your enrollment deposit to get an email. So, like, what now? Has this happened to anyone else before?

This is ridiculous

Title

I’ve moved around more in my nosebleed seat than any of their players move off ball. It’s sad. Number 11 should take an NIL deal I feel bad for bro.

I got admitted; I'm from a highly competitive top NE Prep school. Top of my class, max rigour, 36 w perfect subscores, biomed engineering internships, aspirations, etc.

I'm really heavily considering UVA. My friend and I plan to rush the same frat-but I'm worried that I wont have time to focus on academics, do research, etc. at a standard that I would do at some ivy. I need to understand, from guys who are in frats, is it possible to be a good student at the same time?

If a student gets accommodations for learning differences, do these extend to placement test for foreign language? Auditory processing disorder will have a big impact on performance for listening and oral portions.
