That was my last shot before the deadline so I couldnt request anyone else. I emailed my admissions rep to ask if there was anything else I could do but he just reassured me that a lack of an interview wouldn’t hurt my chances. At the very least he knows I tried?
Guys, we’re in the final stretch! Congratulations to everyone for getting this far, and I wish you all luck! Only 19 days til decisions are released!
wow its crazy… 19 DAYS.
Guys do not lose hope but lets just wish for the best.
My daughter said last night she looked at the CC ED thread from last year and it was “quite depressing. I won’t be doing that again”.
I saw somewhere that those admitted ED1 are not required to submit mid-year reports … do any of y’all know if this is true ? It’d definitely take a lot of stress off of me finishing this first semester, <_<
They won’t be able to see your mid-year report before they make their ED1 decisions, but they will eventually see them so don’t slack off too much. I’ve pretty much lost all motivation at this point as my quarter 1 grades are finished and that’s all that Vandy will see, but at the same time I have to remind myself to prepare for the worst 
Wait-- does Vandy look at Q1 grades from this year?? My counselor says they don’t but I hear a lot of mentions of it. @edc123
@annabel101 they recommend you send them, but they are not required. Anyone have any idea if we will hear back any earlier than December 15th?
I’m guessing not, @dsc2018. Their website specifically says December 15.
@amominaz that is the date they need to post it by, but in the past, it had been posted a little before. There is a chance we could see it between the 8th and the 15th. I’m hoping, because I don’t know if I can wait anymore lol.
Oh gosh. I don’t even want to get hopes up for early notification!!
I’m so nervous!!! Only one kid from my school has ever gotten in, and although they had a lower SAT than I do, they had a 101 average. It’s so hard to not know!
I believe we would be notified if the decision date changed? Then again it might be better if they came out unexpectedly so I could spend less time stressing out lol
@annabel101 it actually does call it an “Optional Report” on the Common App – I’m pretty sure my school automatically sent my Q1 grades so I don’t believe I had a choice
I would assume if they change the notification day they will let people know in advance. Last year was definitely at a certain time on December 15. I don’t really see them diverting from that TBH. I’m keeping my daughter home that day. She will be totally useless at school anyhow. Her bff applied ED to UChi so they can obsessively check their portals together.
I believe it was at 5:30 PM EST last year according to CollegeVine
Hey guys. RD applicant here. Did anyone apply with the Coalition? There was no question about school of choice like school of engineering etc.
I never thought I would actually make a CC account but I’m getting so antsy and I’m hoping it will help to connect with other people in the same situation lol. I just found out that I have two midterms on December 15 and I can’t imagine those will go well because there’s no way I will be able to focus
I have a mandatory event at school on December 15th until 5:30 so I guess I’ll be checking at school
My daughter applied ED I to Vandy as well and now I am as eager to know her fate as she is. No one from her school in NH has gotten in for years n years- and this year at least four have applied ED. Even with a 4.0 gpa and 35 act and leadership activities and all the essays and efforts- it is still a long shot and up to admissions. Nice thing is she and all of you have other great options if you dont get in. Anyone applying to VU ED is a great student with great back up safety schools. Keep attitude positive and know you will be happy wherever you go! Its all a bit relative. Every school has its pros n cons. Some of this is fate and luck and combo of stats they are looking for. Dec 15 my daughter will be traveling and I wont even get to hug her or console her when she finds out. Good luck!
