I’ve seen them release as late as 9:30pm est and even into Saturday… no idea if that will happen but the most we can do now is stay hopeful
 
I don’t want to give false hope and I’m not exactly sure what I heard, but I’m pretty sure the person who called me said they’re gonna “send out emails in a few days once all calls are made”.. so idk if today is the last day or not
Interesting…
 
For anyone who has attended any of the previous official campus visits, I know the email said "casual dress is completely acceptable," but what were people actually wearing? I don't want to be the only one showing up not wearing dress shoes lol.

People were typically business casual 🙂.

If you are at all worried about them identifying you, they don’t even ask for your names. Truly has no bearing on admissions
 
forgot to check SDN all weekend just to see that I missed an A in this first wave :') does anyone know what the odds are like for later waves? ALSO CONGRATS EVERYONE
In the same situation… I saw in past years there have been a few people in the February and March waves that interviewed early and were accepted but it doesn’t seem that common. Still holding out some hope tho 🙂

Does anyone know if the merit scholarships are given out at time of acceptance? A scholarship would be so clutch but they didn't mention anything when they called so I'm hoping they are still deciding lol.

Accepted OOS!! I hope this isn’t a mistake though, since I didn’t get a phone call. Did anyone else get accepted without a call?
whats the first couple sentences of your email? Because the verbiage in the email I got today references the phone call ina way, so if you got a different one + plus have a tab in your portal I think you are just fine

“Congratulations! We loved contacting you to tell you the good news of your acceptance into Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Class of 2028. Your status in our Admissions Portal has changed to reflect your acceptance.”

Hmm mine is the same but if you have a portal change I think you're legit in!

that wording had me EXTREMELY confused for like 30 seconds when I saw it lol
 
Hi everyone, I was one of those who got the call late 🙂. For those who received the merit scholarship offer--- was this only over the phone or in the offer letter too?

So… anyone get an A who interviewed in November? I’m holding out hope that they didn’t get to them yet or something 😭
Same..I also interviewed early November😭 But I remember admissions staff saying that ppl interviewing in Nov are kinda tight for first wave decision and it really depends on how fast our interviewers/reviewers submit their reports given the holidays. So she said even for the same day interviewees, the decision turnaround can be different!
 
Is it Joever for October interviewers?
