Decision Letters

<p>are being mailed out tomorrow. We can expect them on Friday/Saturday (if close to TN) or Monday/Tuesday (if a bit farther).</p>

<p>Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>What about people just outside of Boston?</p>

<p>I have posted this before, but long ago. We live 2 hours from Nashville. D was admitted ED and S RD. Both times it took 3 days for the mail to get here, although D had a friend was was admitted ED same time that got a letter in 2 days. Mail coming from Vanderbilt is notoriously slow and with the large volume of letters to be sent, I wouldn’t expect any speed records to be set. MSNBC has a crawl at the top of their homepage this morning that says the Postmaster General expects the Postal System to run out of money this year. Don’t expect new speed records for delivering these decisions!</p>

<p>It takes 4 and sometimes 5 days for regular first class letters to arrive in the Washington, DC area from Nashville. But I think they use priority mail for admissions decisions-- so it should take just two days max.</p>

<p>S’s priority letter still took 3 days for him in 2002.</p>

<p>What if u have an international address?</p>

<p>I believe they e-mail internationals with their decisions on the 27th.</p>

<p>Hope so or else it’ll come here the time the class of '14 get their decision…</p>

<p>Thanks hilsa.</p>

<p>D has a classmate who applied ED2 and got her decision (accepted) the day after those letters were mailed. She lives in the county next to Davidson county which is where Vanderbilt is. We live about 15 minutes from campus so I anticipate that there could possibly be either a big or small letter in our mailbox on Friday and most definitely by Saturday. The student mentioned above has still not withdrawn her other applications or notified the other schools where she was accepted of her ED2 status. But that issue is for a different thread. Of course my D is totally p…d at her and her mother right now. I am biting my lip about this and not saying anything but if my D is waitlisted…I will probably contact the mother to find out what their final plans are!</p>
