Vanderbilt ED1 Discussion Thread Class of 2021

That’s the thing. If I don’t get into Vandy I’ll b devastated and I’ll be upset cause the schools that are similar to it that I’ll be applying to are very difficult to get into RD

@jayusa8 i feel the exact same way

what majors did you guys apply for? i applied for econ

I applied for Enginnering (biomedical as my first choice and I think I put mechanical as my second choice)

Applied ED to Vandy. EA for Tulane (accepted). RD for NYU, USC, UCLA, Hopkins, Harvard, UPenn, and Cornell. I might apply to Emory, Duke, and UVA (if Vandy doesn’t work out, but I’m hoping it will) since they’re all in the south and I live in the south. @jayusa8 I agree.

Econ, Political Science for first choice. CS, CE for second choice. International student. @kate16

Is political science major harder for international student to get in?

So far I’ve applied to Georgia Tech, Tulane, Rutgers, and Wentworth IT and if I don’t get into Vandy I’ll apply to Duke, UVA, UPenn, Stevens, TCNJ, BU, and maybe Rice and Harvard and another Ivy. I’m applying for biomedical engineering

I applied for HOD!

I feel like I’ve eliminated a lot of top schools bc they’re gonna be too expensive which is annoying but I understand why

engineering (chemical first choice, mechanical second choice)

Does anyone know what time vandy usually posts blogs (specifically about decisions)?

I just don’t understand why they don’t announce when they’re releasing them. Most schools have already let the applicants know when they will be cause then we could stop wondering. Unless it’s possible that maybe they are still finishing up with reading the applications and therefore will release them once they are done which is still an undetermined date.

A lot of us are applying to the same schools so chances are that even if we don’t get into Vandy some of us may still end up at the same school!

I applied to Engineering (Biomedical first choice, Chemical second choice) and to College of Arts and Sciences (Molecular Biology)

Applied Peabody first choice (HOD and Cognitive Studies) and to College of Arts and Sciences second choice (Public Policy Studies and Political Science)

I’ll be doing ED2 to either Claremont McKenna or Emory if Vandy doesn’t work out. Other RD schools include WUSTL, NYU, Boston College, USC, Wesleyan, and other early schools I did include UIUC, Fordham, Case Western, Northeastern, and Indiana Bloomington (admitted).

I applied under BME first choice and I think Chem Engineering second. I am also still frequently refreshing my email.

I applied HOD

I did Peabody Cognitive Studies
