I think Aeternitas, Ceres, and Libertas are the "Virginia Cubesat Constellation". Some others could be added later. There have been several revisions on the earlier ELaNa ODARs. I saw CAPSat has their paperwork started but it didn't specify the launch yet.

The goals of the UNITE CubeSat mission are to: measure plasma properties of the lowerionosphere using a Langmuir Plasma Probe, monitor its own internal and skin temperatures via atemperature sensor array for use in updating a thermal model of the spacecraft, and carefully trackthe CubeSat’s orbital decay using data from an onboard GPS unit.The satellite will launch November 21, 2018, on an Orbital ATK Antares II Cygnus ISS resupplymission. It will be deployed from the International Space Station via the NanoRacks CubeSatDeployer in early 2019.

Got to be a mistake, no? 6x1U in a single stack, as opposed to 2x3U?
The overall goal of the ThinSat-1 mission, is to orbit 60 small experiments to advance STEMeducation, and promote space science research and systems engineering for grades 4 – 12 anduniversities. It includes approximately 70 schools from nine states. The student teams will analyzethe data collected by their experiment and submit a report detailing their findings. The studentswill track their experiment and receive data in near real time through the Globalstar network andthe Space Data Dashboard website. Online content and resources will enhance the educationalexperience.The experiments will be deployed aboard 12 satellites, ThinSat-1A through ThinSat-1L, launchedas a secondary payload aboard the Orbital ATK OA-10 on the Antares second stage, from the midAtlanticRegional Spaceport, Wallops Island, Virginia, November 1, 2018. The satellites will beinserted into Extremely Low Earth Orbit (ELEO), at 250 km apogee and 203 km perigee, on aninclination from the equator of 51.6 degrees. They are deployed from 4 canisters mountedexternally on the second stage of the launcher; they unfold accordion style as they exit the canister.Transmission will begin upon deployment, and cease less than 14 days later, when de-orbitingoccurs. See the Orbital Debris Assessment Report for details.

Our payload will launch on Northrop Grumman’s Antares launch vehicle, currentlyscheduled for flight on 17 November 2018, and will be assembled on orbit at theInternational Space Station by astronauts in January 2019.
The overall goal of the NSLSAT-1 mission, is to correlate solar activity to electron density in the Near-Earth (LEO) plasma field. The spacecraft will carry a Energetic Particle Detector and a Langmuir Probe.The satellite will be launched as a payload aboard a NASA CRS (Commercial Resupply Mission) inside a NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer (NRCSD). Current launch vehicle is the Orbital-ATK NG10 rocket, scheduled to launch from Wallops Island, VA in November 2018. About 90 days after this launch, the NG-10 will un berth from the ISS, boost to a higher orbit, and deploy the satellite. The satellite will be inserted into a near-circular orbit at 500 km at an inclination of 51.6 degrees from the equator.
