2017-2018 Vanderbilt University

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Rejected. 🙁 Vandy was my top choice and I thought I'd be a great fit. My whole family is in Nashville so this is a major bummer.
 
Just rejected also, post-secondary. Complete mid-October, LM 75.
 
ahh yeah I just checked last years thread and it'd seem like it is. I interviewed mid November so I'm not exactly holding my breath lol

I know someone who used to work on their committee and he said it takes them about 4 weeks after the interview to make the decision

I also heard (IIRC) like Dec. 22 is when the first round of acceptances would be released

My fingers are crossed!
 
The December meeting is on Thursday, so decisions will not likely go out until after then. This info comes from email correspondence with the admissions office.
Didn't someone say the December meeting was yesterday?

@med_chick was the source of my original info (and she's talked to the direct of admissions at Vandy since via email lol)

That was more of a misunderstanding/miscommunication. The first time of communication I was told the *week* of Monday the 18th, which was taken to mean the actual 18th.
 
The level of sass I'm feeling right now -_-

I’m sorry, against whom? I’m on my phone so I couldn’t italicize week. Just trying to spread knowledge of the timeline because I know how much it sucks to be constantly checking the forums and/or a portal for a decision. I knew from the first correspondence with admissions that the meeting wouldn’t be Monday the 18th but later in the week, and it wouldn’t be fair to y’all to not share that information.

Not towards anyone in particular. Just a very heightened level of sass. Since I spent the whole day freaking out, and it was all for not.
 
A call from Vanderbilt tomorrow would be the best holiday present I ever received
 
Just curious - was it your interviewer that called? Or perhaps just someone else on the committee?
My interviewer called, which was lovely -- not sure if that's the same for everyone or if it just turned out that way. 🙂
 
Does anyone know if those of us who didn't get a call today will have some sort of portal update to let us know if we've been booted to the second round of decisions?
 
I hope they are just going to give out more calls tomorrow given that not too many people have posted?
I just checked the Vandy threads from the past couple years. Barring last year most calls occurred on a single day so I dunno. I would love to be wrong though, I really enjoyed my time in Nashville.

I'm hopeful if it's the case that interviewers are making the calls. Seems reasonable that not everyone had time this afternoon to make calls?

This is the attitude we need

We'll find out tomorrow. I haven't been to a church in like ten years, but keeping with desperate times, I'm about to go to the nearest chapel . I'll keep you riley29 and kfcboy and every other applicant in my prayers.
