i’m waiting for other people LMAO
Are they going to send another email or do we just log into the portal
Just log into your portal. You’ll receive another email within an hour or so if you don’t check it, assuming Slate is set up the same regardless of school.
If admitted you’ll also receive this really nice Fedex envelope with Vanderbilt in big letters and an image of students with Vanderbilt gear that has a physical copy of your decision letter + other stuff (the stickers are really nice, especially the squirrel!!)

That sucks. College Admissions is a random process for the majority of applicants at the best of times, so don’t take this as a sign that your application isn’t competitive or anything: just make sure to apply widely and hope for the best. You never know, you might get into somewhere else and find out that you like it more!

Current student here. A&S dean said during US elections class that ED applications were way up from last year.
stats?
I didn’t realize Vanderbilt didn’t defer to regular decision. Your daughter’s stats are amazing. I am sure she is going to end up somewhere amazing. Hang in there!

That seems to be the case at many schools, perhaps due to test optional admissions or strong financial aid programs. No one but the Admissions Office knows for sure, I guess.
Yay!!
They do defer, but it’s in very “rare cases” according to the undergraduate catalog. Again, no one but the Admissions Office at each school knows what they’re looking for and even that can change from year to year, so there’s nothing stopping you from being admitted somewhere else.
