Does anyone know how many acceptances are awarded during the second round in February?
Sorry to hear that, did you get a secondary?
Yep! Automatic one, I think.
How long did they review your secondary?
That would be my best guess too. Getting nervous!
Does anyone know if everyone from an interview date gets a decision at the same time? I.e. Are they sending out my rejection with the acceptances in the next week or two, or do I have to wait until the bitter end?
Got the call about 20 minutes ago!
omg awesome when did you interview?
Congrats!!!
Last year, seems like calls went out until at least ~10 PM so...might be staring at my phone for the next few hours...

FYI everyone last year there were people who interviewed in early/mid november and heard back in December. Also the calls stretched over a few days.
Are they going to continue to call tonight and into tomorrow or just tonight?

Yeah sorry I didn't see that earlier. But hmmm I don't think I've heard of them working weekends to call...

Accepted by phone call just now! Lizzy M 77, interviewed October 10. Anyone remember when they said we would hear about scholarships?
Congrats to those accepted!! So exciting 🙂 do you mind sharing who called you? Was it your interviewer?
FWIW a friend of mine was just offered a substantial scholarship when they called to tell them they were accepted. Not sure if people receiving less comprehensive scholarships have yet to hear or what. I know that they do have pretty robust need based aid though, and that comes out later after you apply for it!
Also, in response to mandoggy, the same friend's name is earlier alphabetically and they found out after me, so I'm not sure there's necessarily a rhyme or reason haha.
My call was from the that older guy on the admissions team.

It shows up on my portal, but maybe it takes a day to go through the system? Maybe yours will show up tomorrow?Got the call too!
For everyone else accepted, does it show up in your portal yet? I'm still convinced this is a joke.
Just got the call today as well. Very appreciative that they are taking the time to call on a Saturday.
Congrats! Are they still calling? How do we know if we've been pushed to February, waitlisted, or still in the running to get the call?
No one gets WL in December. If you don't get a call today or whenever they stop calling for this wave, then you're still in the running.
Very unsatisfying, I know.

got the call around 4pm est! super nice and personal call, love this school
Can i ask which day in November?
I don't want to give the exact day, but it was during the third week
Thanks! I was mid-November too and they said we likely wouldn't hear until February so was just checking
Is there any way to know whether we were deferred versus not considered in this group at all?
I don't think so...
Accepted to Vandy + full-ride! Just received the call.
LM ~73-74, OOS.
