Considering the last reported A's name was at the end of the alphabet and that general alphabetical trend seems to hold up, I wouldn't get your hopes up too high. Good thing there is (reportedly) a march wave left!

Could just be a coincidence. It's really just a theory.
 
so if we didn't get a call or email today, where does that leave us? (interviewed early Jan)
reconsidered during the March wave (although there is no mention of a third wave on the admissions website)? or is this likely a WL/R
 
Ok guys so is the next batch early, mid, or late March because I've seen all three at this point on this thread haha. My anxiety needs to know.

Late March would suck bc that only would give us 4 weeks to plan a visit before making a decision. Has anyone who's been accepted heard about second look dates? And whether that'd be in-person or virtual? Obviously putting the cart before the horse by asking, but I want to start planning trips to finally see these schools before April 30

Second look is virtual on April 1-2
 
Does anyone know of any accepted student Facebook groups or GroupMes for the Class of 2026? I would love to connect with other accepted students. Additionally, for those that received merit aid on their acceptance call, should that show up in our portal?

There’s a link to the fb group in the acceptance email and the groupme link is in the fb group!
 
I saw they normally send WL and R emails the same day as A calls for this last wave. Anyone know what time these would start?

Since match day is the 18th and second look is the 1st, it probably is today right? Either today or the 25th but that is really close to second look

Last year, which was the first time Vanderbilt ever had a March release date, decisions were released on Thursday, March 26th. Considering Vanderbilt just sent out February decisions two weeks ago, ~March 25th is definitely a real possibility.

Sorry to correct, but just checked the calendar and March 26th 2021 was a Friday. DId they go out on the 25th last year? I think second look was Apr 10th last year so that timing still gave people a few weeks

Considering second look is virtual and on a weekend, I doubt there's much of a rush to give people time beforehand--March 26th would give people a week

I checked March 26th, 2020 accidentally! So last year the decisions were released on Friday, March 26th.

I know only some people post to SDN but it feels weird that only one person posted? Like idk are they maybe doing another round or something. It seemed that past years they sent out WL and R the same day as the last A wave

Nah in 2019 they sent out WL the day after. I bet we'll get an email sometime tomorrow.

Hey guys, M1 at Vandy here. Some students closely tied to admissions said they believe yesterday may have been the last round of acceptance phone calls as a whole. With that being said, I have a few things to share:

If you were waitlisted and this is your top choice school, there is actually a lot of movement that does happen. I personally know a handful of friends who got in off the waitlist. I know it's unsatisfactory, but just hang in there.

If you were rejected from all med schools you applied to this year, don't lost hope. Med school is competitive, and sometimes it takes a second try to get in. If things remain the same for the next month and that concern becomes a reality, I recommend taking a little bit of time off to forget about the stresses of this cycle. Then, take some time to reflect on your application, try to address and deficiencies in experiences, and be ready to make this dream a reality next cycle. I got rejected everywhere my first go around and got in here the consecutive year (yes I was rejected from Vandy before). I also know another student who was in the same boat as me. Believe in yourselves - you got this!

I wish you all the best of luck - you're going to make incredible doctors!
