Official Vanderbilt 2015 Fall Transfer Thread

@409391074 yeah mine is may 4th too

@gyuanyu @409391074 My apologies. The deadline is two weeks after you received your acceptance. I received mine on the 13th.

Hi everyone. I am a Chemical Engineering applicant and I was waitlisted on April 6th. Sorta disappointed but we shall see what happens.

Currently at GSU in Atlanta.
4.06 Undergrad GPA.
3.86 HS GPA.
2000 SAT.

My admission counselor told me that she was surprised that mine was not released last monday, and it should be up by next monday. Knowing that majority of the decisions were acceptance last week… hopefully what she said was a good sign ): Extremely nervous.

I was waitlisted last fall.

uh, this is pretty much it. I applied to Grinnell, Emory, and Notre Dame also. Rejected from cornell.

@marianna0725 Thats a good sign for you! How did u ask your conunselor? Did you just directly ask about ur decision?

@udontknow Yes I did. last tuesday I called her and politely asked if she knows about when my decision is available. I thought asking wouldnt look bad since I submitted my app right around the deadline!

My counselor emailed me that my application is with the committees now and the decision will be made pretty soon. Is this a good sign? I am an engineer applicant.

@qlrp2012 can i ask what state you are from? I can’t seem to reach my counselor :frowning:

@newbee18 I am from south new jersey!

Can anyone chance me too? Btw i am applying as a rising junior. My stats are on the previous page

@marianna0725 Did you check with admissions about not having SAT scores?

@tysonisasaint yep of course haha.

I’m not really sure what happened this year. I transferred in last year and they seemed to let anyone in with a pulse.
Maybe they’ve tried to cut down enrollment this year? Not really sure.

@tysonisasaint welp… if they let “anyone” in… i feel pretty sad about it since i was waitlisted :stuck_out_tongue: I think i remember you from the last years thread

@marianna0725 I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to be rude. I just do think it’s becoming more competitive this year.

Anyone know the decision date?

Stats:

HS GPA UW 3.75 W 4.05
College GPA 3.43
SAT 2040
Arts and Science

@coconutcabana Decisions are announced on Mondays, but it can depend on which school you applied to.

@emflatt I applied to CAS

Oh man… Monday is coming…

@emflatt I saw your other replies in other thread, did you apply to U of Michigan? I applied there last year and was admitted, but couldnt afford /:
