Yay, I just got in! However, I have not received mail or a phone call. I just checked my account for Vanderbilt online, and it had a invitee response link at the bottom! Basically, if you haven't heard, you might want to check your online page to see if it's been updated there first. 🙂

oh no, what have I gotten myself into? haha

and why assume I'm a girl, eh? 😉 maybe it's a trap haha

ok, for some actual contribution to this thread:
So their "second look" weekend is during Relay for Life. 🙁 I don't know if I should skip out since I've worked so hard to raise money for the relay, but hotel+food+awesome people is so tempting. I even reserved a plane ticket to possibly buy later tonight (it's a good price at $150). AHH! I'll probably pace around my computer in circles in the meantime.
 
i wish they subsidized transport over $200+. flying from canada is rather pricey.

also, does anyone know if clicking accept online is binding?

I know Relay for Life is a great thing, but you've already done the hard part, and the most important..raising cash-flow for their cause. I think you can give it up this year and come meet us all!

And JimCAN...their acceptance is non-binding. You can still withdraw down the way if necessary!
 
Has anyone successfully RSVP'ed for Second Look Weekend using the given website, username, and password in the email? I've been trying to do this and it keeps on telling me that either the username or password is invalid!

🙂 thanks for the extra nudge. sigh, feeling slightly guilty, I went ahead and got the plane ticket so I'm committed now! Can't wait to meet everybody...

haha, we need some sort of secret word or handshake to find each other (j/j)

Don't worry, there will be plenty of unofficial partying after the official stuff is over 😉

I have a question for current Vandy students. How low could my grades go before I get my acceptance revoked?

(Random classes, non-major, non-prereq)

It would seem prudent not to start failing a bunch of classes just because you're already "in," though I don't know what it would take to get your acceptance revoked. Anything bad enough to draw attention to yourself would probably not be something you'd want to do.
 
Ya, I'm pretty sure I'm just overreacting to the end of the quarter.
 
Not going to second look weekend.

But that's just because I don't need a second look at my dream school. See you all this fall.

😀
 
I haven't bought my tickets yet (need to make sure I can get out of a lab to be there for Thursday night) but I am super stoked for second look, the schedule looks great!
 
So how are we SDNers going to recognize each other? Red rose on the table? Special handshake? Coughing our SDN screen names (*cough*LET*cough*)? I know aebvd and a couple of others on facebook, but not all!

hah no kidding. We need to get some more people to spill some names and get all facebooked up.
 
Hey all!

Hope everybody is doing well and enjoyed/enjoying their Spring bReaks.

Anyways, I was wondering if anybody else is coming to the dinner hosted on Thursday night (for CRS scholarship peeps) ? I wanted to get some opinions from people on what they thought about the whole scholarship and the Canby Robinson society. I think shemarty told me that LET also received the full ride? It would be really nice to talk to some1 about this as I'm having a tough time evaluating my options.

Holler.

Actually, I got the Dean's scholarship, not CRS. I think I have another set of dinners and such (I'll be there for minority revisit). However, Serikk got one of the Canby Robinson scholarships so he'll definitely be there for that dinner.
 
Hi! I got in earlier this month but just found this thread...

congrats to everyone here! I am really bummed that I can't go to second look - my family had already planned to visit me during that weekend (I live in germany, and have been waiting for them to visit for 2 years) ... but it should be a blast - have fun!!

I saw on earlier posts that you have to respond online AND write a note to the dean to confirm your acceptance - has everyone been doing both of these? I called the office and was told I could just accept online (I wanted to email b/c international post sucks...)

Congrats! I just e-mailed admissions in addition to responding on their website, they said that was fine.
 
Hey SDNers,

I just got accepted a couple days ago. I nearly fell out of my chair when I got the call from Dr. Zic. I then spent an hour catching up on yalls sdn thread. I am a current Vandy student and second look should be a blast. See everyone there,
Neil
 
BUMP...how's it going everyone? Only 1.5 weeks until 2nd Look!
 
so sad i cannot attend second look! it will be sick i am sure.

Sorry you can't make it Jim! and yes, I do believe they are planning on a class of 105.
 
Hey MJ, I will be there for the Canby Robinson Dinner on Thursday. Do you have any more info on the scholarship? On the website it says that it covers tuition, but in the letter it says tuition and stipend? Hope to meet you there!

Also, has anyone tried to complete the Finaid application for Vandy? The login page is not working for me, I keep trying to log in but it will just redirect me back to the log in page.

Thanks!
Excited to meet everyone at second look!
 
Congrats on the CRS! I was under the impression its just tuition but im not sure...I guess that would be a good thing to find out next week. I saw you were accepted to HMS, are you thinkin of enrolling there? I'm still stuck deciding b/w UCLA, Stanford, and the Vandy ride. Its definitely very nice that Vandy treats us so well. I got multiple calls and emails from the CRS people and they sent us all these letters and packages and stuff -- feels like they care. The dinner should also be very interesting, see you there.
 
Given the recent waitlist trampling by a couple of the non-rolling schools...I am nearly certain I will be at Vanderbilt next year...and I'm VERY excited! Can't wait to meet y'all (I've done it again, LET!) next weekend!

Psh, Vandy's better anyway.

See you guys in a few days! Woooooo
 
So... We have to wear our name tags wherever we go for the whole weekend right? I say we draw a star or something on the corner of our name tags to distinguish ourselves!

I'll know you! 😀


also, to current students: what is this CELA deal? Are we really going to have standardized patients? Are we supposed to memorize the questions they sent us (they're pretty much common sense, but still)? It all sounds a tad awkward.

Hey guys,

Is Vandy known to have generous institutional financial aid packages?

Thanks!
