Vanderbilt Early Decision for Fall 2022 Admission

what school did you apply into? also deferred, for peabody

I was also deferred from Peabody
HOD. It’s interesting because I know that people were talking about the withdraw buttons on the portal earlier on here and my withdraw button never disappeared, even minutes before the decisions were released. Did that happen to you too?

same here, never saw anything disappear from my portal

weird
did you do HOD?

probably because ur decision hasn’t been made

college of arts and science

Keeping my eye on the ED stat release here. Suspect Vandy admissions is not going to be thrilled with what it shows ED2 to be, due to their leak of ED1 stats. No way they took 2/3 of their class ED, so are we looking at low teens %? If so, might as well eliminate ED2 for Vanderbilt as it’ll never be a smart decision. We have a 3rd that loves the school, and this will show its likely ED1 or bust. Good intel to have.

D22 was admitted ED2.
4.0/4.5/34. CAS- Political Science/Math. Fairly common EC’s with leadership and work experience. No national awards. Well written essays, content value is subjective.

I see so many with great stats that didn’t get in. It must truly be about what space they are trying to fill, not necessarily a straight stats competition.

Congratulations! It looks like the school was exceptionally selective at ED1 and ED2. The one plus being that there is still some room for some RD kids.

i agree with you! it may not be about who is statistically the best, rather who would fit the school’s current needs (in an applicant/student.) congratulations! well earned!

They’re all statistically qualified (or, at least, mostly all). We don’t know what is in reccomendations, essays, or- as many have said- what they’re looking to fill. My guess is ED2 this round was very specific in areas of need- they probably only took +/- 300, so if you were in one of those buckets for application and then were one of the very best applicants? You hit gold.

Denied. 33 ACT. 94% GPA unweighted. 6 APs but my school does not allow students to take many APs. Ran a service project, 4 honor societies, school wide award, club swim, varsity swim 4 years and varsity volleyball 2. Captain of two sports. Tutor. Multiple year round jobs for 3 years. Really great interview. I think my Vandy essay was not as good.

I just got a MOSAIC invitation? So I’m accepted
? Does this mean I get a scholarship as well??? So happy but so many emotions!

were you deferred before?

Did you apply for a scholarship? If not, and you applied for FA you’ll receive your FA award letter a bit later.
