Official RD 2020 Thread

didn’t see one of these so I decided to start one up…

Has anyone tried requesting an interview on myappvu? I’ve requested and the person didn’t respond in 3 business days or at least I didn’t see it. Do they respond on the app portal or with an email? Also, I sent my ACT and SAT Subject tests but it shows 3 act scores (I’ve only taken the ACT twice so I’m confused) and my SAT I scores (which are not very good and I didn’t order them to be sent) not my SAT subject scores. Does anyone know if they take scores off your transcript and consider them officially in the portal?

@a1h313 About the interviews, I requested one but she did not reply in 6 days. So I canceled her and I added another interviewer, but he did not reply for 4 days now. So I guess I will call my regional rep on Monday and see if she can do anything.

@PartyNextDoor the same thing is happening with me, i’ve requested two people and neither of them have responded? now I’m worried I’m just not seeing their response somehow. Do they respond on the portal or with an email or?

@a1h313 I just got an email 20 minutes ago! They respond to your personal email. If you didn’t get one yet, then yeah I would contact your assigned rep that you can see in your account on Monday!

I requested and the next day got a response. Just did the interview yesterday! (I also live in Nashville so Vandy alums are everywhere). Good luck!

I live in PA and requested one and got a reply two days later. Completed the interview over Christmas break… I guess it depends if you have someone close and able to do it.

I requested an interview one night last week and got a response the next morning. I had my interview, and I must say, the person interviewing me was awesome! I was very impressed

When are RD decisions typically released? I know they said April 1st; but is it before that like other schools?

Last year they came out on Sunday the 22nd and the year prior was Friday the 28th. It looks promising it will be released before april 1st

Thanks!! I hope it comes out sooner, but we will have to see.

Hello! Had my interview a month ago or so and she said I would hear around the end of march

I’m so nervous!

Does anyone know what Orientation is like at Vanderbilt and when it starts?

@vh1818 Freshman move in about a week before classes start and there are lots of orientation activities that week. They do not have summer orientation weekends like some schools. I believe move in day is August 20, 2016.

I heard that Vanderbilt sends out likely letters. What are those?

hi I’m joining this thread

@anon9362 Did we apply to all the same schools lmao

OH MY GOD

I’m so nervous. I applied even though i have like a .001% chance of getting in because my scores aren’t very high. I still have some hope! I hate this waiting!
