Did anyone else have trouble uploading the required 1040 and W-2 documents? If so, what did you do? Their financial aid department is so unresponsive...

I didn't have difficulty uploading the documents BUT I did have questions regarding my parent's W2's. I called the financial aid for clarification and they were able to help me right then and there! If you haven't tried calling, then try that. I've called them twice in the past week and they were able to help me just over the phone.

I completed my FAFSA last year but added UVa in January, finaid appplication late February, submitted all required tax documents through the portal right at the start of March, and have a finaid package in my portal today. Didnt get an official email, wondering if they are going to officially distribute them or not

Edit: Got an official email today 3/17

was it some kind of merit-based scholarship if you don't mind me asking? wondering why some people got notified and others didn't

This award came from the financial aid office and was need based. They said I qualified for max need based scholarship and loan. Maybe they are distributing for the highest need individuals first before getting to other people?

Haven't heard anything about merit-based, but from their site it seems that this is awarded by the admissions team and not the financial aid team. So merit based scholarships are likely still on their way out if no one has heard back yet!

Hi friends! Idk if I'm allowed to advertise like, but please slap me on the wrist if I'm being problematic. I have started a thread for people on Virginia MD waitlists. I think we can help each other gauge overall in-state movement if we work together!

Virginia In-State Waitlist Thread [Tech, UVA, EVMS, and VCU] (2021-2022)

Thread for Virginians on waitlists for Virginia MD schools! AAMC traffic rule deadlines are coming up so let's help each other gauge in-state waitlist movement in the Commonwealth of Virginia :)

Did anyone else contact the finaid office and have any idea when the rest of aid packages are coming out?

Haven't had a pre-II R yet, so was wondering if anyone else hasn't heard back yet about their app status. Are they still interviewing?
 
Does uva send official acceptance letters in the mail or anything like that?
 
Just withdrew my A here. Good luck to all on the WL, such an amazing school! :)
