<p>i got my app complete notification feb 19th so that cant be it… I guess I’ll just have to wait and find out then… too bad this has added even more stress to the situation for me</p>

542

<p>Agreed. So so mentally and somewhat emotionally drained from this process.</p>

543

<p>And timing could be critical. I applied early, in January. Pamphlet/booklet didn’t have an envelope. Was clearly a mass mailing. Sorry to have added to your stress anon. Maybe it will be over this week?</p>

544

<p>Ya I hope so newtocollege, I really want decisions to start coming out now, I’m tired of everything at this point.</p>

545

<p>Has anybody inquired to admissions about when they will be sending decisions? It says Mid April and that being said, it is mid April. Also, do not worry about the brochures I am certain that it does not mean anything. Good luck to all.</p>

546

<p>crazy7ray,</p>

<p>last year’s transfer thread says that the letters were mailed out on the 17th of April, and the first person to post their acceptance did so on the 18th of April (someone from Nashville). SO FAR AWAY!!!</p>

<p>But on another note, to those of yall applying to other colleges too - it seems like Vanderbilt decisions will be coming much sooner than other colleges. So if Vandy’s reply by date is 2 weeks (standard?), and you won’t be getting letters from other colleges, what do you do?</p>

<p>Would asking for an extension work? Vanderbilt guarantees housing for transfers, so I don’t think it would effect housing lotteries?</p>

547

<p>Looking at the Fall 2011 Transfer thread, it looks like the first acceptances were also on April 18 and 19. So mark your calendars and look out for a “big envelope with Vanderbilt down the side”!!!</p>

<p>@ crazy7ray </p>

<p>I called yesterday and they only said that we can expect our decisions this month.</p>

<p>IT’S DRIVING ME CRAZY NOT KNOWING.</p>

549

<p>Hey @ malleilactone</p>

<p>Are you currently finishing your semester at NYU as a visitor?</p>

550

<p>Hopefully transfer decisions are mailed beginning next week. It would be consistent with last year, so it seems possible.</p>

551

<p>Got my app complete email today. aw yea hoping for good news</p>

552

<p>Has anyone received admission decision? My parents received a mail but they did not open it and now we can’t find it. So I’m not sure if that was a rejection/waitlist or if it was just a notification for application completion?</p>

553

<p>Hi Abhi12,
The past 2 years, Vandy didn’t mail the first round of decisions until the April 16, so it is unlikely that the letter was a decision, but who knows?</p>

<p>When did your parents receive it and was it in an envelope?</p>

<p>also, qwertychester,
The Admissions counselors in the comments section of the Vandy Blog stated that decisions come out generally in the order that they receive the apps/send notification of complete application. Hopefully you’ll receive your decision in the first round. However, it seems that people who received their app complete emails earlier also received their decisions in the first rounds, while those who received their app complete emails later got their decisions in later rounds.</p>

554

<p>@Abhi12
I am getting more nervous now…but it seems too earlier to receive a decision letter this year. Hopefully it is just a greeting mail, not rej/WL</p>

<p>I got my notification for app completion on Apr 3rd. Is that early or late, anyone knows?</p>

555

<p>It looks like some got their app complete notifications in Feb, some through March, some in April, so it appears like it might be later, but don’t take my word for it</p>

<p>Hopefully we’ll all get decisions sooner rather than have to wait and wait through May.</p>

556

<p>@Abhi
I got my app completion notification via email. It might have been the brochure about life at Vanderbilt and what it has to offer…</p>

<p>Heres a picture of transfer students on Curry Field…hopefully this’ll be us in the Fall</p>

559

<p>Most probably one week from today is when decisions come out, best of luck!</p>

560

<p>I GOT ACCEPTED!!!</p>

<p>…About one year ago. Teehee.</p>

<p>The picture posted of Curry Field is of the transfer class two years ago. I guess the Vanderbilt administration stopped taking pictures (and caring in general) for transfers because I have no memory of doing such a thing.</p>
