Potential Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholars

@musicgeek97 I got an email yesterday whose subject was “Scholarship Notification” but it was from a scammy scholarship site

@JacobDF96‌ Oh that’s just cruel.

@JacobDF96 I would’ve literally slammed my laptop screen if that happened to me lol

Anybody have an idea of what time the notifications are sent in?

@InfinityMan‌ I believe someone said earlier they are usually released between 1 and 3pm.

@InfinityMan‌

If its like most college admissions decisions sometime in the late afternoon (4-6)

@InfinityMan‌ @musicgeek9 i thought it was between 1 pm and 9 pm Central Time. Given that usually theres around 4500 applicants i believe the notifications are sent in batches

@baileyantoinette You are correct. They begin sending in the early afternoon.

I’ve heard the 1-9 time frame from multiple people. If it’s accurate, looks like the first batch will be coming out in about 15 minutes

@BaileyAntoinette‌ That’s right. Sorry. I was going off memory.

I wonder what order batches are done in. Probably alphabetically. Which means I’ll be in the later batches.

Is it just my clock, or is time actually moving slower? Any Quantum Physics geeks?

I swear if we have to wait until Monday…

I’m nervously making the time pass by binge-watcing One Tree Hill.

@JacobDF96 lol that show still exists?

@InfinityMan it ended several years ago but it lives forever on Netflix!

AHHH!!! I’m so nervous guys…

I live 20 minutes away from Vanderbilt, and going there would be a dream of mine. I really hope I get this scholarship

Nothing here - closer to beginning of alphabet

What colleges did you all apply to? I applied for the College of Engineering.

Arts and Sciences

I’m also closer to the beginning of the alphabet and haven’t heard anything…maybe they are making us wait until next week :frowning:
