Hi guys! I finally decided to actually post something
I am so nervous I can’t focus or sleep!! The wait has honestly been torture. What are y’all expecting? Are you really hopeful/confident or not at all? Does anyone have a definite second choice?
I’m REALLY HOPEFUL… but panicking otherwise XD
I’m cautiously optimistic haha. My second choice is Brown, and I also really like Harvard and Stanford (not that I’d get into any of those lol)
Lol guys if you really want to become stressed out take a look at the Harvard restrictive early action thread. 106 pages of pure agony
why are there so many rumors about decisions coming out on the 11th?
@ck123456 historically decisions have come out the Friday before the 15th despite being set to come out the 15th every year. That doesn’t mean they will this time, but it makes sense given the past.
Great question about “definite second choice”. It’s just smart and prudent to have a good, safety/definite second choice. So let’s hear them. What’s the “definite second choice” that’s as close to a sure thing that you can have?
Really? I would imagine that CS is pretty popular. Computer Science is going to be the new engineering.
I got a 31 on the ACT (one point below middle 50) and have pretty good EC’s and I think a good essay. I hope I get in.
@TXDad56 I think they just meant a school that is for sure your second choice, but by your definition for me it’s Tulane, to which I’ve already been accepted with a large scholarship (: I actually think it’s similar to Vandy in many ways.
Is the decision on whether we got in or not going to be posted on the My App VU thing?
Same with my son.
@TheSardine yep!
Anyone applying for Peabody!!? Really excited (panicking at the same time though) about the result released day. Personally feel like ED1 must has a way better chance to get in than ED2/RD (since some might ED1 ivys then take Vandy’s ED2 as backup I guess). Anyway I ve been dreaming to get in for so long so wish us all good luckkkkkkkk guys!! Hopefully we can meet on campus LOL
Unfortunately, ED1 only works for those with enough money to pay full fare or for those poor enough to get need based aid. Those in the middle are stuck doing RD.
Is it pathetic to think that I just want to wear a Vanderbilt sweatshirt right now?
Checking this thread makes the waiting easier…it’s nice to know that other people are going through the same thing right now
Why do I feel I’ll get rejected? I guess I’m a natural pessimist. Hoping for the best tho
I honestly don’t know what my plans are if I don’t get in. Sure. I have a bunch of schools that I say I would like to go to, but Vanderbilt is really the only place that I can see myself spending the next four years at. Let’s hope this ACT helped. The waiting truly is the hardest part! Oh man!!! Just a little longer. Good luck guys! 
Has anyone else noticed that the layout of the myAppVU portal has changed a few times since we applied? Sometimes I’ll log in and freak out because it looks different haha
