I’m also a lgbt poc and would appreciate any insights you are willing to share. Thank you!

Right— I guess I’ve been reading too many threads about bad communciation/relationships with advisors, and how difficult that is. Thank you!

Re-posting as this is a more relevant thread: I emailed my advisor that I’ll be attending their program. I also rejected everyone else and already committed in their portal. Haven’t received a reply in 4 business days. I’m getting anxious and feel like this is a bad omen– they were pretty awesome when we chatted a few months ago... Should I be worried? (I am.)

Hi! I haven’t sent my decision yet but UVA (Art History- PhD) is also my top choice.

Hey: I received an email notification of my acceptance from UVA at the end of January. Next week, they’re hosting admitted students to meet with the department.

How about Charlottesville, VA and Champaign–Urbana, IL?

I'm most likely attending UVA this fall too. Can anyone provide updated insight on decent and safe neighborhoods as well as property management to avoid... (i.e. Eagles Landing)? Unfortunately, I won't be able to visit Charlottesville before moving at the end of July so I'm a bit worried about finding a studio, 1-bedroom apartment or shared living spaces that are cat-friendly. (I've visited to Richmond during undergrad...) It seems more efficient to have a car in Charlottesville, which I would not mind investing in but I prefer to bike or use public transport. Does anyone have experience with this too?
