Vanderbilt ED2 applicants

<p>well they were only sent out yesterday, so I doubt they’ll reach you today. I live in WV and estimated my delivery time with usps and it says monday. So probably tuesday or wednesday for california</p>

<p>do they send it priority?</p>

<p>From what I’ve read on past threads, yes. But I don’t know if that’s reliable. My guess is Monday or Tuesday. Hoping Monday!!!</p>

<p>Gah, i’m an international applicant, so i get my notification by e-mail on tuesday >.<</p>

<p>Accepted! Got letter today in Tennessee</p>

<p>Quick Stats:
ACT composite: 33
GPA: 4.0 (unweighted)
Rank: 2/200</p>

<ul>
<li>School you applied to: Arts & Sciences</li>
<li>Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0) : 3.52</li>

<p>amitha18,
Big Priority mail envelopes go out to accepted ED students along with RD acceptances in late March. For now, all ED applicants, whether accepted or denied, will get a standard sized First Class letter.</p>

<p>-School you applied to: College of Arts & Science
-Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0) : 3.55 (no APs, but about 1/3 of the curriculum throughout my four years were college courses)
-Scores (SAT / ACT / Subject Tests / AP Scores) : 27 ACT, 1820 SAT (I know…)
-Extra Curricular activities: Cheerleading, Ski Team, Jr. Volunteer at local hospital for two years, Link Crew, Summer@Brown, Junior Class Vice President, Student Senate, College Connection, College Options/ETS, College Connection Senate, Key Club, Interact Club…I feel like I’m forgetting stuff…
-Leadership : Junior Class Vice President, Student Senate, College Connection Senate
-Legacy / URM / Ethnicity (Hook) : Nothing… :frowning:
-Location (Ex: NY) : Northern California
-Strengths/Weaknesses: Strengths: Definitely an underrepresented area where not very many people go to college; REALLY strong essay. Weaknesses: Scores and the fact that I don’t have any APs.</p>

<p>Letters are in the mail and I’m freaking out… I know I have a really small chance at getting in, but I can’t help but get pumped up! Do you guys think I even have a chance?</p>
