Virtual Transfer Information Sessions are Live for Spring 2026

Hello, Future Hoos Interested in Transferring!👋 

Anyone remember back to mid-November?  I promise it’s not as long ago as it feels.  But lots has taken place since then, so let’s have a quick recap⏪: Classes wrapping up✅, Snow🌨️, Spring 2026 transfer decisions came out💻, Thanksgiving Recess🦃, and… 

 

 

 

There we go.  All on the same page.📄 

 

Well, the time is here.  Woohoo Wahoo!🥳  Virtual Transfer Information Sessions for Spring 2026 are live and on the website.  Register now for your spot!  You can get to our registration event calendar by clicking on the link above or from our Admission page > Visit > Register for your UVA Experience.  

 

The first session starts in the new year – January 13, 2026.  Sessions are scheduled over Zoom for an hour, with live Question-and-Answer monitoring throughout, as we share general UVA information, transfer process steps, student experience insights, and some financial aid information too.  Sessions begin on Tuesdays, alternating between 4pm and 7pm.  During the last two weeks of February, leading up to Fall Transfer application deadline of March 1, 2026, we’ll host sessions twice a week – Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Check the calendar for days and times that work best for you.  These sessions are open to all transfer-interested students. 

 

These sessions do not include a tour, but there are a couple ways to take a virtual tour of UVA:  read though information, pictures, and maps of Grounds or listen to and watch a virtual tour of Grounds presented by our students (Click on “Take a Virtual Tour of UVA Grounds” at the bottom of the page and follow the steps). 

 

We look forward to “seeing” you!  As always, if you have pressing questions before the sessions, you are welcome to reach out to undergradadmission@virginia.edu. 

 

Until next time, happy transferring!💙🧡

Spring 2026 Transfer Decisions

Hello, Hoos interested in UVA – 

 

It’s that time of year! *Said in my best Olaf voice⛄* Decisions for Spring 2026 transfer were released yesterday, Monday, December 1, at 5pm.  Please check your portal for more information and next steps.💻 

 

We know this is an important process for you.  Please know that we approach this work with a high level of responsibility to you and to our university.  Spring transfer is a significantly smaller number of spaces and is limited to the College of Arts and Sciences.  It is a competitive application cycle.  Best of luck, everyone!🤞
