Are we supposed to get any sort of confirmation email after submitting the Virginia In-state Educational Privileges form? I just want to know they got it especially since we are getting close to when IIs are sent

I called them the day after sending mine and they said they had received it, I never saw a confirmation email
 
this school and dartmouth are instances I've seen where they have a file upload option for CV/resume. do we need to be uploading that? it doesn't explicitly ask and it lets me submit without uploading a CV/resume.

thanks.

What is the best way to approach the second short answer? Is writing a brief description of each activity too much?
 
I just submitted my secondary, and it says my MCAT score wasn't received. Are we supposed to send our scores manually to UVA? I thought it would send automatically from AMCAS

No need to send them manually, they should be sent automatically. Just give it a few days to update and reach out to UVA if it does not after a week or so.
 
I didn't apply to this school since I thought it was out of my MCAT/GPA range (516/3.9), but reading the beginning of this thread, it seems like they are moving to a more holistic approach. Since they are sending out IIs now would it be too late to apply?

My friend was accepted with a 509 last cycle so I think you are more than fine 🙂
 
Does anyone know if they accept pre-II updates? Couldn't find anything about it online
 
if we submitted the secondary the first day it came out and haven't heard back yet, does that most likely mean we've been passed over here? I really like the school 🙁

My friend, I totally understand the worry. However, UVA sends interviews all the way through January! They don’t go in order. Take a look at last year’s data. I drew an arrow to show where we are… and keep in mind CycleTrack likely has an earlier interview bias.

If i am uploading an update letter, what do I put down as the "document name" in the portal
 
yo what’s going on here

It caught us off guard too, honestly. The complaints are limited to some of the surgical specialties and most of the departments had no idea about them. But they are doing an investigation to find out if theres any legitimacy to them. Regardless, this applies more to the main hospital / residency program & none of this will affect your education here. The SOM is crazy crazy supportive and the education I've received here so far is world-class.

Also want to quickly drop that from my class onwards (2028), this school has shifted to P/F clinicals. Our preclinical is already true P/F (no internal ranking) and now the clinical is following suit. From my research, its a good thing for top schools to do this because it takes stress off the students. And it won't hurt for residency applications because UVA is a top program. The clinical grades will be P/F with an opportunity to earn a clinical distinction and/or an academic distinction.
 
Just to confirm, are these group interviews? It says on the portal we have 2 interview slots which makes it look more like non-group interviews but their site says we'll be in groups of 6-8
