REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS. SEMI-ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT STI CLASSIC VARIABLE TRUST JUNE 30, 2003 [LOGO OMITTED] Dear Valued STI Classic Variable Trust Funds' Shareholder: For investors, the six months ended June 30, 2003 saw marked improvement in equity returns, and moderation of returns in bonds versus stocks. Specifically, while stocks continued to labor under the weight of the late 1990's technology stock bubble, various types of stocks had similar returns. The S&P 500 Index was up 11.8%, with its Growth and Value components similar at 11.3% and 12.3%, respectively. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was 9.0%. The S&P 400 Midcap Index was 12.4%, while the S&P 600 Smallcap rose 12.9%. This convergence followed two years in which value stocks had significantly outperformed growth, and small/midcaps were similarly better than large caps. For bonds, the Lehman Aggregrate Bond Index returned 3.9%, and similar returns were seen in the Lehman Intermediate Government/Credit Index, which returned 4.3%. Returns in bonds were driven by several factors, including: further reduction in short-term rates by the Federal Reserve; continued minimal price inflation; major improvement in corporate bond quality spreads vs. Treasuries; positive asset flows into bond mutual funds; and some aspects of flight to quality in the Treasury bond market. The current investment environment appears to be one of moderation. The late 1990's equity bubble which led to excesses and ultimately suboptimal capital allocation on the part of both corporate managements and investors is long over. The ensuing bear market which purged those excesses also now seems to be finally over. The stock market has gained a better tone, after making three decisive lows in the 775-800 range on the S&P 500 Index in July and October 2002, and March 2003. Economic growth has been very slow to recover, since consumer spending did not fall much in the recession and capital spending is still limping along. However, ample monetary liquidity, the lowest interest rates in over 40 years, some tax incentives and fiscal stimulus, the eventual benefits from a lower dollar exchange rate and improving consumer/business confidence all argue for continued positive economic growth and not another recession. Stock prices ultimately track profits growth, and the trajectory of profits is now positive. Investors in stocks can reasonably anticipate moderate gains but need to be selective and price sensitive in security selection.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future returns. A new stock market boom is unlikely, rather, a gradual recovery. The outlook for bond investors in terms of absolute returns is a bit more challenging. Since bond prices move inversely to interest rates, the current low level of yields by 1 definition reduces the opportunity for continued above average returns. Measured since January 1981, the Lehman Long-Term Treasury Index returned 11.9% annualized through June 30, 2003, while the S&P 500 Index total return was 12.7%. Such near convergence is rare in capital markets, and needs to be understood in the context of 30-year Treasury bonds reaching yields of over 15% in 1981, versus only a little over 4% today. Similarly, we do not expect deflation, which would benefit Treasury bonds, but rather a gradual rise in inflation as economic stimulus takes hold. For those reasons, we currently favor stocks over bonds in terms of asset allocation, and within bonds, higher yielding corporates over Treasuries. However, adherence to investment disciplines and greater price sensitivity on stocks will be much more important in the next several years, particularly if there is a meaningful rise in interest rates. Thank you for your confidence in Trusco Capital Management as Investment Adviser to the STI Classic Variable Trust Funds. Sincerely, /s/ Douglas S. Phillips ------------------------- Douglas S.

Organization: The STI Classic Variable Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated April 18, 1995. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with seven funds (each referred to as a "Fund" or collectively as the "Funds"): the Capital Appreciation Fund, the Growth and Income Fund, the International Equity Fund, the Mid-Cap Equity Fund, the Small Cap Value Equity Fund, the Value Income Stock Fund (collectively the "Equity Funds") and the Investment Grade Bond Fund. The assets of each Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the Fund in which shares are held. Sales of shares of the Funds may only be made to separate accounts of various life insurance companies and certain qualified benefit plans. The Funds' prospectus provides a description of each Fund's investment objective, policies and strategies. 2. Significant Accounting Policies: The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates. SECURITY VALUATION -- Equity securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for equity securities traded on NASDAQ), including equity securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on the primary exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 pm ET if an equity security's primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale on the valuation date, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on NASDAQ, the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. If available, debt securities are priced based upon valuations provided by independent, third-party pricing agents. Such values generally reflect the last reported sale price if the security is actively traded. The third-party pricing agents may also value debt securities at an evaluated bid price by employing methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-supplied valuations, or other methodologies designed to identify the market value for such securities. Debt obligations with remaining maturities of sixty days or less may be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which current market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by, or in accordance with, procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Dividend income is recognized on ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the amortization of premium or accretion of discount. The cost used in determining net realized capital gains and losses on the sale of securities is that of the specific securities sold, adjusted for the accretion and amortization of purchase discounts and premiums during the applicable holding period. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- In connection with transactions involving repurchase agreements, a third party custodian bank takes possession of the underlying securities ("collateral"), the value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. In 30 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (UNAUDITED) the event of default on the obligation to repurchase, each Fund has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal proceedings. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS -- With respect to the International Equity Fund, the books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: o market value of investment securities, assets and liabilities at the current rate of exchange; and o purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The International Equity Fund does not isolate the portion of gains and losses on investments in equity securities that is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to change in market prices of equity securities. The International Equity Fund reports certain foreign currency-related transactions as components of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for Federal income tax purposes. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with Federal tax regulations are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions from net investment income for the Investment Grade Bond Fund are declared daily and paid monthly to shareholders. Distributions from net investment income for the Capital Appreciation Fund, the Growth and Income Fund, the Mid-Cap Equity Fund, the Small Cap Value Equity Fund and the Value Income Stock Fund are declared and paid quarterly to shareholders. Distributions from net investment income for the International Equity Fund are declared and paid annually to shareholders. Any net realized capital gains are distributed to shareholders at least annually. EXPENSES -- Expenses related to a specific Fund are charged to that Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are pro-rated to the Funds on the basis of relative net assets. 3. Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates: INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT -- Investment advisory services are provided to the Trust by Trusco Capital Management, Inc. ("Trusco"). Under the terms of the investment advisory agreement, Trusco is entitled to receive a fee from the Funds, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 1.15%, 0.90%, 1.25%, 1.15%, 1.15%, 0.80% and 0.74% of the average daily net assets of the Capital Appreciation Fund, Growth and Income Fund, International Equity Fund, Mid-Cap Equity Fund, Small Cap Value Equity Fund, Value Income Stock Fund, and Investment Grade Bond Fund, respectively. Trusco has agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees (and to reimburse Funds' expenses) in order to limit operating expenses. Fee waivers and expense reimbursements are voluntary (except for the Growth and Income Fund) and may be terminated at any time. ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT -- The Trust and SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the "Administrator") are parties to an Administration Agreement (the "Administration Agreement") dated August 18, 1995, as amended November 19, 1997 and March 1, 1999. Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator is entitled to an annual fee, subject to a minimum of $62,500 for domestic funds and $75,000 for international funds (expressed as a percentage of the combined average daily net assets of the Trust and STI Classic Funds) of: 0.12% up to $1 billion, 0.09% on the next $4 billion, 0.07% on on the next $3 billion, 0.065% on the next $2 billion and 0.06% for over $10 billion. 31 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--CONTINUED - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STI CLASSIC VARIABLE TRUST JUNE 30, 2003 DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT -- The Trust and SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor") are parties to a Distribution Agreement dated August 18, 1995. The Distributor receives no fees for its services under this agreement. TRANSFER AGENCY AGREEMENT -- The Trust and Federated Services Company are parties to a Transfer Agency servicing agreement dated August 2, 1995, under which Federated Services Company provides transfer agency services to the Trust. CUSTODIAN AGREEMENTS -- SunTrust Bank, acts as custodian for all the Funds except the International Equity Fund which utilizes Brown Brothers Harriman & Co. as custodian. Prior to January 29, 2003, Bank of New York served as custodian for the International Equity Fund. Custodians are paid on the basis of the net assets and transaction costs of the Funds. The custodians play no role in determining the investment policies of the Trust or which securities are to be purchased or sold in the Funds. OTHER -- Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of the Administrator and/or the Distributor. Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust for serving as officers of the Trust. The Trust has entered into an agreement with the Distributor to act as an agent in placing repurchase agreements for the Trust. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2003 the following Funds paid the Distributor through a reduction in the yield earned by the Funds on those repurchase agreements: FEES ------ Capital Appreciation Fund ................... $201 Growth and Income Fund ...................... 45 Mid-Cap Equity Fund ......................... 106 Small Cap Value Equity Fund ................. 59 Value Income Stock Fund ..................... 459 Investment Grade Bond Fund .................. 353 4.

Federal Tax Policies and Information: It is each Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes and distribute all of its taxable income and net capital gains. Accordingly, no provisions for Federal income taxes are required. The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest with respect to their investments in issuer existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned. The Funds accrue such taxes when the related income is earned. The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains distributions are determined annually in accordance with Federal tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, they are charged or credited to paid-in-capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), 32 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (UNAUDITED) or accumulated net realized gain (loss), as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. For tax purposes, the losses in the Funds can be carried forward for a maximum of eight years to offset any net realized capital gains. The breakdown, as of December 31, 2002, was as follows (000): EXPIRES EXPIRES EXPIRES EXPIRES 2010 2009 2008 2007 ------- ------- ------- ------- Capital Appreciation Fund ...... $5,695 $ 223 $ 334 $ 12 Growth and Income Fund ......... 483 128 3 -- International Equity Fund ...... 1,471 1,208 315 -- Mid-Cap Equity Fund ............ 4,568 837 -- -- Small Cap Value Equity Fund .... -- 55 -- 1,030 Value Income Stock Fund ........ 3,046 -- 11,645 -- Investment Grade Bond Fund ..... 189 119 451 296 Amounts designated as "-" are either $0 or have been rounded to $0. Included in the Capital Appreciation Fund is $569,441 of capital loss carryforwards acquired in a previous merger. The utilization of this capital loss carryover may be limited pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382. At June 30, 2003, the total cost of securities and the net realized gains or losses on securities sold for Federal income tax purposes are different from amounts reported for financial reporting purposes due to wash sales which cannot be used for Federal income tax purposes in the current year and have been deferred for use in future years. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for securities held by the Funds at June 30, 2003, were as follows: AGGREGATE AGGREGATE GROSS GROSS NET FEDERAL TAX UNREALIZED UNREALIZED UNREALIZED COST APPRECIATION DEPRECIATION APPRECIATION (000) (000) (000) (000) ----------- ------------ ------------ ------------ Capital Appreciation Fund ................. $50,759 $10,896 $(2,188) $8,708 Growth and Income Fund ................. 5,888 459 (335) 124 International Equity Fund ................. 5,652 608 (356) 252 Mid-Cap Equity Fund ..... 13,455 1,295 (101) 1,194 AGGREGATE AGGREGATE GROSS GROSS NET FEDERAL TAX UNREALIZED UNREALIZED UNREALIZED COST APPRECIATION DEPRECIATION APPRECIATION (000) (000) (000) (000) ----------- ------------ ------------ ------------ Small Cap Value Equity Fund .......... 15,368 3,217 (869) 2,348 Value Income Stock Fund ................. 41,659 4,199 (2,179) 2,020 Investment Grade Bond Fund ............ 22,728 1,080 (36) 1,044 6. Concentrations/Risks: The Investment Grade Bond Fund invests primarily in investment grade obligations rated at least BBB or better by S&P or Baa or better by Moody's. Changes by recognized rating agencies in the ratings of any fixed income security or in the ability of an issuer to make payments of interest and principal may affect the value of these investments.

Securities Lending: Each Fund may lend portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other financial organizations that meet capital and other credit requirements or other criteria established by the Trust's Board of Trustees. These loans may not exceed 331/3% of the total asset value of the Fund (including the loan collateral). No Fund will lend portfolio securities to its investment adviser or its affiliates unless it has applied for and received specific authority to do so from the SEC. Loans of portfolio securities will be fully collateralized by cash. The value of the collateral is at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. However, due to market fluctuations, the value of securities loaned on a particular day may, during the course of the day, exceed the value of collateral. On each business day, the amount of collateral is adjusted based on the prior day's market fluctuations and the current day's lending activity. Income from lending activity is determined by the amount of interest earned on collateral, less any amounts payable to the borrowers of the securities and the lending agent. Lending securities involves certain risks, including the risk that the Fund may be delayed or prevented from recovering the collateral if the borrower fails to return the securities. Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in the Boston Global Investment Trust-Enhanced Portfolio. This Portfolio consists of money market instruments including money market mutual funds registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, commercial paper, repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. agency obligations. 34 NOTES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investment Adviser: Trusco Capital Management, Inc.
