Hey, I'm really considering applying to the University of Virginia and I've heard some chatter about their application deadlines being a bit unique. Does anyone know when their applications are usually due? Are there separate deadlines for early and regular admission?
Yes, the University of Virginia (UVA) does have specific deadlines for its application process. For the 2025-2026 application cycle:
- The Early Action (EA) and Early Decision (ED) deadlines are November 1.
- The Regular Decision deadline is January 5.
Submitting your application for the Early Action deadline doesn't require an enrollment commitment from you if accepted, but it does provide an advantage of receiving a decision earlier. Early Decision, however, is binding.
Remember to not just focus on the deadlines themselves but on preparing a substantial application package - thoughtful essays, solid recommendations, and showcasing a depth of engagement in your chosen extracurricular activities. Best of luck with your application!
