The University of Virginia announced Tuesday what it called a clarification in its admissions policy toward children of alumni, who are often known as “legacy” applicants.

The release of the online Common Application on Tuesday for the 2023-24 cycle gave U-Va. and other schools a chance to unveil new questions for applicants in a changed recruiting and admissions landscape.

U-Va. President James E. Ryan and Provost Ian Baucom said the university would abide by the court ruling. “We also will do everything within our legal authority to recruit and admit a class of students who are diverse across every possible dimension and to make every student feel welcome and included here at UVA,” they wrote in aOne question U-Va.

Another question is new and optional: “If you have a personal or historic connection with UVA, and if you’d like to share how your experience of this connection has prepared you to contribute to the University, please share your thoughts here. Such relationships might include, but are not limited to, being a child of someone who graduated from or works for UVA, a descendant of ancestors who labored at UVA, or a participant in UVA programs.
