<p>I've applied as a music intended major..
And I know grades are not the most important thing,
but I've got straight Bs for this semester due to my practicing for auditions...
Is this okay?</p>
<p>No one knows. If your GPA has been amazing so far, that might come off as laziness to them.</p>
<p>Then again, I've heard that senior year GPA isn't that important, as long as there is nothing lower than a B.</p>
<p>In the Vandy Admission blog they say that the Mid-year report is optional.</p>
<p>But they do see the final year report, so that gives you a possibility of being rescinded. But then again, if you do well second semester, I doubt it'll be a problem if you get in.</p>
<p>The mid-year report is optional?</p>
<p>Seriously?</p>
<p>Yes.</p>
<p>I don't know why, but it is.</p>
<p>So I just need to tell my counselor not to submit them?</p>
<p>Well, for Vanderbilt, yes. I'm sure other schools need them, too, though.</p>
<p>I checked CommonApp to see if my counselor had submitted her stuff yet. Apparently she's chosen to send in physical copies as opposed to the online option.</p>
<p>I hope she hasn't sent in my mid-year report yet. If she did, I'm going to have to call Vandy and ask them if they can discard it. lol</p>
<p>Idk how well that will work out, though.</p>
