pretty sure its impossible in the state of virginia
Only if you can prove that you're living in VA for a reason besides just going to school there (spouse got a job in VA, etc.)
No, it's super hard. The easiest way to get IS tuition is to marry a VA resident
Yikes- I havent been accepted here yet, but this really throws a wrench in my plans. It would be very hard to justify paying OOS tuition for 4 years.... (the estimated cost of attendance from the paper they gave us in the folder on the interview day was very steep for OOS)
Or buy property so you could get a mortgage in theory and use loans to pay that instead of just renting.
So if I got a mortgage on a house, I could use that for in-state tuition? I'll buy a house to go to medical school haha!
Someone at my interview was a VA resident and said you have to live in VA for like 3 years before you qualify or buy property/marry someone.
What does it say?
Just that CASPer is required this year and I hadn’t sent my results to VCU yet.
I didn't get that and I already submitted mine so he was probably just reminding you!
Yes because some people interviewed this week and I believe they said that those applicants still have a shot of getting a straight acceptance before the WL is formed but its based on if people drop their seats (so it sounds like they arent extending more acceptances right now and that they want to keep the accepted number the same so they will add people as others drop)
I am also in the 0 Acceptance crew, so *fingers crossed*! I would be grateful to go anywhere I'm accepted
Already did my interview but thanks! I thought the interview was super laid back and hard to prep for cus it seemed like they were genuinely curious how you think. And everybody was sooooooo nice.
Yeah I was wondering the same thing. Mine changed too but didn’t know if I was just confused about it saying March 1 before.
I spoke the other day to the admissions staff. If u already have a score from the committee it really won’t be seen unless it’s grades or being published.
I interviewed this week and I know they said the committee is meeting on monday for us (dont know if its for everyone else). I loved my interview day but I feel like MMI makes it hard to express your interest for the school
On the other hand, I don’t think they’re looking for whether you’re interested in the school at that point. They already know you are since you submitted an app. They’re probably more interested in the fact that you’re a good person who they can see as a good student/colleague
True. They did emphasize that they look at applications very in depth and that the interview is basically like a personality test cuz they wouldn’t interview anybody they had any reservations about.
where did you hear no pdf?
I remember them saying it at the interview. Said short and sweet email. No need for a long PDF
ah okay. so more of a suggestion/request then? rather than a hard rule? because I sent in a pdf and got an email back saying it would be added to my file
The committee is meeting today. Not too sure if they have released it the same day in the past.
I think they might start releasing them next Monday
What makes you think that?
Usually they do it the Friday following the committee review, and since March 16 (posted on the portal) is on the weekend, it may be next Monday. This is all speculation though.
Hasn’t it been said that they’re going to try and formulate the waitlist around March 15?
Same. Which they told us that is a good thing (since we know we won’t be rejected)
When did you interview? I did on the last day last week and they said we would receive 1 of 2 decisions today: rejection or hold. And the hold is either a WL or an A but they won’t distinguish between the 2. The group that may possibly get an A has to see if spots open up by the March 16th date. If not, they roll to the WL
Wait but I thought not everyone on hold was gonna make the wait list ?
At least for those of us who interviewed last week, we either got a hold or a rejection today I believe.
