Randolph and Benjamin Franklin Randolph. Likely disappointing as UVa could accommodate at least 218

postponed because not all of the professors had arrived to fill their posts yet

the University when he was able, he would also invite the first students to dinner at Monticello.

What was the minimum age of admission for the University? - CORRECT ANSWER 16; students were
expected to present a certificate from a lower seminary before being able to matriculate (UVa was

What was the typical early UVA student like? - CORRECT ANSWER Hailed from Virginia, the South and
the West. Considering there was still no free public education on the primary or secondary level,
