Potential Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholars

@nwtlr1 does the letter include CV too?

“Early Writes” will be going out from scores of colleges starting about now. If your son or daughter has applied to a highly selective college with a pool of thousands of “equals” in stats, please help them understand that they are still fantastic, and you are oh so proud of their high school years. Vanderbilt is a highly selective university, and few will receive Early Writes. For that matter, some students who are highly qualified for Vanderbilt will not get in only because of the crush of applicants in universities like Vanderbilt that are blessed enough to offer No Loans Financial Aid. Congrats to nwtir1’s son for his early RD admission. Good luck sorting through your final options in April!

Thank you @faline2 !!.. We sure are proud.

@momtwo2 There is no mention of CV or any financial aid. :frowning: We still have our fingers crossed.

Best friend got Chancellor’s, but didn’t receive a MOSAIC invite.

Does Vanderbilt notify you if you get denied for CV scholarship or only for acceptances?

@Matt846‌ You get an email either way and a letter if you get it.

Could we possibly hear back next week?

@Futurez That’s what we are hoping! They released them on the 7nth last year.

Only one more week (or less, hopefully)! How’s everyone feeling?

Nervous, but fairly calm. Even if I don’t get the scholarship financial aid may come through and if it doesn’t then it just wasn’t meant to be.

@musicgeek97‌ I just hate waiting. I’m nervous and anxious about finding out, but I’ll be okay either way. I just don’t do well with not knowing right now.

@JacobDF96‌ I’m not either. I just want to have all my information in hand so I can decide where I’m going.

Guys, you have any idea about the exact time and date, as yet? :open_mouth:

Thought I’d join in on the conversation since we’re (hopefully) getting close to knowing! I visited Vanderbilt again this past week and completely fell in love again. I hope this scholarship and also admissions works out!

Last year they were released the 7th, but that was a Friday. Previous years they were released the 5th. As far as I can tell, it’s always been in the range between those two dates, and the 5th this year is a Thursday. Hopefully we know Thursday or Friday!

I hope Thursday, but I figure it’ll end up being Friday.

Are all CV applicants informed of their admissions decision on the 5th (or whatever date it ends up being)? If you don’t receive the CV scholarship, are you informed right then if you are accepted/rejected/waitlisted, or do you wait until all RD decisions come out towards the end of the month?

@NicaBenji‌ you are informed that day by email. Recipients will also get letters.

Does the email only tell you your outcome for the CV scholarship? Obviously if you get it you are also accepted. But, if you do NOT get CV do they tell you if you were admitted or not? Or just say you will find out when the rest of the RD decisions come out? It would be great to find out a bit early!

@Musicmom2015‌ If you don’t get it you have to wait for RD.
