Calling all UVA Darden Waitlisted Applicants: 2021 Intake!

Question

I am starting this thread for waitlisted applicants to stay connected and share their experiences/updates. I would really appreciate it if any WLed candidate comes forward and manage this thread.

FYI, you can go through the previous year's waitlist topic to get an idea of the timeline and how some have successfully navigated the waitlist process.

Just adding for everyone's information.
I had reached out to my waitlist manager earlier today to check whether there has been a movement in the waitlist in round 2. She mentioned that they haven't made any offers to waitlisted candidates in R2 and there would be some additional information comin in in next week or so.

Hi fellow WL candidates! Would be great if someone could share some update or news. The WL thread this year has been very silent. It was buzzing last year.

My WL manager told me that May 28 was the last day of sending updates. This applied to me as an international candidate, though not sure if it applies to domestic candidates as well. It was worth noting that this date was 1 week later than the last date of deposits for all rounds May 21. Now, 2 weeks have passed since May 28 and I see no recent movement of acceptance or rejection from the WL.

The last WL movement I last saw was 6 acceptances from WL on May 5 and 6 on Clear Admit. 3 were from round 1 and round 2 each. All seemed to be domestic candidates.

Look to hear from someone who has any relevant news or info!

Hey,

I received the following mail from my WL manager on 3rd Jun -

"Thank you for letting me know about your additional submissions. We will take those into consideration as we continue to monitor the waitlist. We will let you know if and when we have additional news to share. At this time, we do not anticipate movement on the waitlist. Admissions continue to review the waitlist until the start of school in August, though mindful of the time needed for visas for our international applicants."

Looks like it's better to move on. I have started my Re-application for September. I think we in R2 were left out as Darden already had taken its fill of applicants from R1 and Deferrals (That's what my WL manager told me). Hopefully the process coming cycle won't be so hopeless.

ArtMac · Answer

Raul, in order to get started with the re-application process do you have to withdraw from the waitlist?
