Vanderbilt Class of 2024 RD Discussion

@musicallover2040
Congratulations on your multiple scholarships!

So very interesting. If you don’t mind, in what time zone did you receive this at 2:20?

Acceptances come out first, then the rejections.

Son received CV notification at 5:32p EST (admitted to School of Engineering).

ACT 36 (36/36/36/36, Sophomore year)
GPA 4.92W/4.0UW, SAT Math 2 800, SAT Physics 800,
13 APs (all 5) plus 3 more senior year

Major awards: ISEF 3rd place category and special awards, USACO Platinum, USAPhO Silver Medal, AIME qualifier

So if everyone gets an email, then either it’s taking a while for the system to send out the emails to everybody, it’s set up so everyone receives it at “insert time” in their time zone, OR they will be sending these out tomorrow and perhaps some days after that as well.

Congrats to your son! Those are impressive numbers.

On reddit someone said they called admissions and admissions said only winners get notified.

Congrats to everyone who received good news! No luck for D, but at this point, it’s expected.

@Classof2020Kid
Would you please post the link to this reddit thread you’re lookimg at? Thanks.

Congrats to your son @TheVulcan!

It looks like CC won’t let me post it. Go to r/Vanderbilt on reddit and look for a recent thread called “CV coming out today?” That’s where the comment is.

Thanks!

good job, Vulcan! tough choices ahead.

My daughter just received a full tuition scholarship to Peabody school ("Dean’s Achievement Scholarship). She had applied for the C and CV scholarships but I guess didn’t get those. She was also admitted to Princeton in the early round, so I guess she has some hard decisions to make.

Stats in case this helps anyone:
SAT 1580 (790,790)
Subjects, Math II 770, Chemistry 750
4.0 unweighted, 4.82 weighted
Unofficial class rank 1st/560
5 or 6 APs through Junior year (one 4, the rest 5s)
lots of unique activities with some national awards

I was not accepted for CV, just received an E-mail

@soverycurious Thanks so much! I’m in PST

No notification at all here. Sounds like people are starting to get denials, so I guess we’re SOL.

does Vandy favor higher stats compared to quality essays?

another question, are these decisions or just for the scholarships?

Just scholarships .

@Nnig03 Are you a RD student still waiting on acceptance or an ED admit?
