Additional info & updates

Moved to VA on August 1. Ended up being approved for residency.

Sent in app late on Sept. 2, went to C'ville on Sept. 3 to personally deliver ED contract and do tour/Q & A session. Met with admissions staff, including Dean Trujillo & Director Faulk, and spoke with them for a while about my interest in UVA.

Went to lunch with a friend in C'ville, got a call halfway through asking me to return to the building. When I arrived, I was handed my acceptance in person by Director Faulk! What a cool experience.

Best of luck to others applying for the class of 2014!

Congratulations though we don't know. I am Julia from China who is looking for people with similar experience to move on in the new year. I am preparing for the LSAT right now but need to work at the same time and the job is very tough as a lawyer in China. Wish we could talk in the future. My Skype name is also JULIAZHUHAIMAN. Good luck to you!

Hey--congrats on the acceptance. The in-person ED contract delivery sounded like a nice touch. I have a question about the VA residency. Do you mean that you moved to VA in Aug 1 2009 or Aug 1 2010? Also, how complicated/difficult was the approval process? Based on the 40% admissions quota, it seems as if obtaining residency would be a nice boost for someone on the border.
