Hi Peter,

State Law requires that 60% of admissions must be In State for all Virginia Public Colleges and Universities. For the most part UVA and other state schools take that stat no further as they desperately need the higher tuitions from out of state students. As as out of state student, your competition is the rest of the country, not Virginia students. I wish you the best!

Just work hard, and things will work out. Not everyone gets into his/her dream school (that's life), but you'll end up getting into the right place.

Don't carry a "that's not fair" attitude. It's fair, because it's the way it is.

Dear President John T. Casteen III,

With all due respect to the work you have done for UVa (a fact that I would never dare to deny), it is also necessary to remember that it was you who called police on UVa students who were peacefully protesting on the grounds. It was also you, who let those students be sent to jail. Despite all your great ... Read Morecontributions to UVa development, this police action on your behalf will not ever be erased from your record. It shed negative light on UVa and made national headlines: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/16/AR2006041600883.html
