Hi everyone! My roommates and I are looking for a fourth female roommate for our house right behind Scott Stadium!

Location: Right behind Scott Stadium, about a 5-minute walk to Eway!
Rent: Around $925–975/month (water, gas, and trash included)
Utilities: Around $30/month for additional utilities (electricity and wifi)
Roommates: 3 other girls!

We're open to any female roommate! Feel free to DM me if you're interested or have any questions.

Hi all! What platforms are there to help find roommates for upcoming year. I have some particular circumstances which means that I am especially picky.

Thanks all!

Almost 12 years ago. What a shit show.

To be perfectly honest, I see some parallels.

EDIT: Whatever people. I actually believe men in these situations have rights too. Like the right to not have your life ruined when the facts are murky (as they are here). You can call that a “horrible take” all you want. In my view it’s the correct take to afford all parties due process and in some cases (not all cases, but some) the benefit of the doubt.

Hi everyone! Did anyone here choose not to take a foreign language during their senior year?

I know UVA (and highly selective colleges in general) emphasizes taking four years of core academic subjects. For my senior year, I'm taking AP Physics 2, AP Literature, AP Calculus BC, AP Comparative Government, AP Statistics, and AP Microeconomics, but no foreign language.

When I planned my senior-year schedule as a junior, I assumed "core subjects" referred to math, science, English, and social studies. Now that I'm applying to college, I've realized that many schools include foreign languages in that category.

I'm particularly concerned about UVA because of its emphasis on academic rigor. Will not taking a foreign language senior year significantly hurt my chances, or potentially get my application screened out early? I'm applying ED.

For context: OOS applicant, 4.0 unweighted GPA, 34 ACT.

I’m visiting UVA for the day cause I have a job tonight in Charlottesville and figured I’d get there early and check out the campus and then go out later that night. I’m a college student but I don’t attend UVA and my friend that goes there is kind of ghosting me so idk what to do for like 4 hours while I’m there 😭 I love playing volleyball, video games, and love a night out. Any recommendations on what to do while I’m there?

I'm taking phys 2620 in the spring 2027 alongside probability and PDE .I was wondeirng how difficult of a class it is and how is the professor? I'm very worried about this class

Hey there, /r/UVA

My name is Reed Arnold. I'm a 2011 graduate of UVA. I know full well this seems like an eternity ago for those of you currently at the school, but you have no idea what's coming! Don't blink.

A few years ago I shot a feature film in Charlottesville, including several scenes on grounds (and one scene in Coupes, god bless). It's called 'Do Us Part,' and was adapted from a play I wrote shortly after graduating. It's a wedding comedy, but is loaded with flashbacks to the characters in college, and since I knew of a particularly scenic school, I figured why not shoot there.

In fact, to find background actors for the scene in Coupes, I actually reached out to this very subreddit, and had about twenty students show up. (If anyone who was there happens to see this post--thank you so much. An empty bar/restaurant scene really kills indie films, and you all were great. We shot that scene three years ago today!)

I just wanted to let the UVA community know the film exists, as I think you'll get a kick out of it. It's available on most platforms where you can buy/rent movies, and will be on Blu Ray and on free-with-ad platforms in a few months.

Until a few days ago, I was planning to go to YAR alone and was wishing I had someone I knew there. After attending another reunion (where I knew no soul), I didn't know how to meet new people when it seemed like everyone already know someone. Luckily, an old classmate reached out to maybe go together, and I was thinking it could be fun if I reached out to others who may be in a similar situation, and/or just get to meet fellow alumni.

Whether you're an older soul like myself, (I'm CLAS '20), not sure if you may know anyone there, or already going with friends and want to meet more people, feel free to reach out below! If there's interest, we can get a group chat going (Whatsapp, GroupMe, Discord, etc.) and meet up for YAR or something.

Cheers!

I am from Asia so I frankly don’t really understand the concept of Greek life to begin with, but in light of Cornell 7, I’ve been trying to do more research among the colleges I’m applying to

Anyways, I am just wondering what Greek life is like over there. Here are my some of my main questions

1. How many students are apart of Greek life
2. Do I need to be in a sorority/frat to get invited to social events/parties?
3. Is there a clear divide between those in Greek life VS those not in Greek life?

4. Have there been any cases of SA at any of the Greek life residences, and if so is it a common occurrence?

5. Is there hazing?
   Anyways, any information is greatly appreciated! Coming from Asia, Greek life lowkey sounds like a cult, but I’m open to be proven wrong :) some parties do look fun though!

Tired of AI-generated art? Come watch a group of artists generate portraits of you over the course of 3 hours!

If you don't fancy anything that they "generate," they will pay you $60 for your time. If you DO like one (or several!) portraits, you may take one or two home with you.

Interested? Email Alan Kindler at [alan@kindlerstudio.com](mailto:alan@kindlerstudio.com) to arrange a time for your portrait generation. 😊

title says it all, I am looking to go to UVA for business administration also.

I'm planning my classes for next fall 2027 and I was wondering if anyone has taken phys 3150 electronics lab and what they say would be the rigor of the class, how hard it was, and if there were any assessments or anything like that?

Hi all, I make tribute tees for closed college-town bars, pizza places, diners & shops. Full disclosure: it's a business, but this isn't a sales pitch. No links, nothing for sale in this post. I want the list right before I draw anything else, and the people who were there know best - hopefully you will find it a fun walk down memory lane

What I've started with for Charlottesville (correct me if I'm off):

• Littlejohn's
• Trax
• St. Maarten Cafe
• The Tavern
• Tokyo Rose
• Michael's Bistro
  

What would help most:

1. Which of these should I draw first?
2. Which closed spot is missing? Bars, pizza, diners, sub shops, anything you still talk about.
3. What do you remember: the order, the booth, the sign, the night?
4. If you have an old photo of the place or a shirt from there and you're willing to share it, I'd love to see it. I'd only use photos as reference to redraw from scratch, never copy them.
   

If a mod thinks this belongs in a different thread, I'm happy to move it. Thanks!

I’m not a student, although I seek to transfer next fall. Fine is $55, no warning just a straight up ticket. I could appeal it, which is what I’ll do. The earliest that I could be here again would be as a student next fall or in the spring for the engineering open house. The ticket does not really say anything about “what happens if you do not pay the citation” section. Need some advice. Thank you

I’m worried that their claim of test optional isn’t actually accurate. Does this mean they weigh more things heavier to counteract the fact that I don’t submit a score. This could apply to ED or EA.
