    YAY thank u so much for watching!! while i never experienced the out of state experience, I definitely had a lot of friends first year who were out of state. my best advice is to keep your door open the first couple of weeks and join organizations & such to meet as many people as possible! honestly college (in state or out of state) is a little hard to make friends at first, so just be open to anything! it takes time (more than ppl let on), I didn't find my closest friends until second semester first year. you will find your people!!

    Hey!! Love this video ofc :) I know you didn’t transfer into UVA but I was wondering if you had any tips on joining clubs/getting more involved. I’ll be transferring next year as a second year. I know you said you joined a sorority and are involved in a few other activities but do you have any other suggestions? Stay healthy!!

    Catherine M joining a sorority was actually super cool to get to know other girls who were involved in different things I’ve learned so much from them!! I went to the spring activities fair (after first semester) & told myself I was going to try & find two things I could do. Madison house is huge at UVA and has almost all kinds of volunteering. There’s also a website of all of the clubs so honestly just go through there and see what piques your interest & reach out to the president of the club or something & see how you can get involved! If you’re interested in media, WUVA is the best ;)

  • @MeganKelleher

    @MeganKelleher

    4 жыл бұрын

    Abigailia not sure if they look for this specifically but something I’ve noticed is that a lot of people here are passionate about something!! so in your essays if you’re talking about a topic that you’re passionate about (whether it’s something big or small), they’ll definitely be able to see that! I actually made a video with essay writing tips (esp. about creating a narrative about yourself) but imo that’s how u stand out on an application. most people have around the same grades/test scores (ish) so what really makes ur app is ur essays!!

    Julia Funck 2 more tips: 1, apply Early Decision. This basically means that if you get accepted, you HAVE to go. You have a MUCH higher chance of getting in this way than applying through Regular. 2, see if you can do some sort of summer program at UVA. It’s a good way to show interest, and you can reflect upon it in your essays. Good luck!
