notice to appear

Read a random definition: direct possession

A quick definition of notice to appear:

A notice to appear is a document that tells someone they need to go to court. It can also be called a summons or writ. When someone gets a notice to appear, they have to show up in court on the date and time listed on the document. If they don't go to court, they might lose the case automatically.

A more thorough explanation:

A notice to appear is a legal document that summons a person to appear in court. It can also refer to the initial process by which a person is notified of a lawsuit.

For example, if someone is caught speeding, they may receive a notice to appear in court to face the charges. In this case, the notice to appear is a summons.

Similarly, if someone is being sued, they may receive a notice to appear in court to defend themselves. This notice is the initial process by which they are notified of the lawsuit.

The notice to appear typically includes information about the time and place of the court hearing, as well as instructions on how to respond. It is important to take the notice seriously and follow the instructions carefully, as failure to appear or respond can result in a default judgment.

Idk how much of an effect it has on admissions chances but should be cool either way
ive heard the conversion rate for gulc group interview is pretty high even moreso if you have the stats
it's hard to say but i've also heard that the group interview is harder to get than the alumni interview. but who really knows tbh
im p sure they don't interview everyone and getting one this early should be a great sign!

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
