Wash Post is wrong- with regard to Vandy at least. They self reported yesterday. (see link) 22.5%
Ooops, my bad. 12% was last years overall admission percentage. But the #'s from this years early admission class are crazy.
Yes. It makes me nervous about the RD round!
@musicgeek97 I think there is good reason to be nervous these days. VU is feeling pretty much as competitive as the Ivies…sigh
@CoMoMom I completely agree. But as much as I love Vandy, I went into this knowing it was a long shot. I still hope to go, but I’m trying to be realistic.
