Undergraduate Admissions

While we remain a Coalition member, we have paused the Coalition application for one cycle to provide ample time to adjust to the new application platform that Coalition will be using. The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act), requires colleges and universities to disclose information about crime on and around their campuses. The purpose of the reports is to provide information about security on campus to include: campus and community crime statistics, policy information, safety tips, resource phone numbers, and a brief overview of the many services the university provides. Keep this information where it can be easily located; it serves as a useful reference source of information. It can be found at this link: police.vt.edu/crime-stats/clery.

Virginia Tech wins a battle it needed to win, fending off USC

“I think that is a good chance for me to play early,” Williams said, per Dohn. “Just coach Brent (Pry’s) honesty. He gave me a real family vibe. When I went on my Virginia Tech visit, I had the whole defensive coaching staff in the office with me, and we were talking for two hours.” Williams made an official visit to Pitt last weekend and he was slated to be at Duke later this month, but he will no longer make that trip and has shut down his recruitment. Williams, rated as a four-star prospect by On3, ESPN, 247Sports and Rivals, is ranked as the No. 1 player in Maryland, the No. 6 linebacker in the class, and No. 85 overall prospect in the country.
