<p>Again, Vandy is a reach for everyone and you too are the kind of student they like to see. It takes a special person to work with special needs children and adults. I think your chances are very good. Good luck! </p>

<p>If you don’t get admitted, then I probably should not have been. You have a really good chance but it’s getting to where the chances are low enough at top schools that there is an undeniable luck factor.</p>
