Vanderbilt ED2 Discussion Thread Class of 2021

Hi guys! I was accepted ED1 and wish you all the best of luck on your decisions. Honestly didn’t think I had a solid chance, 1410 sat/30 act and a 4.05 weighted gpa, but here I am. I talked to someone who got rejected with a 35 act and 4.6 gpa, so grades and test scores only get you so far. On Wednesday, just chill, watch some netflix, and stay off college confidential. My best advice is to not expect to get in, but don’t count yourself out entirely either. Anything’s possible, and everything will be okay :slight_smile: Take a deep breath and say a quick prayer before you open the portal-- at least thats what I did lol

Nothing is more annoying then these people who for some reason are putting up #vanderbilt2021 on twitter right now. I mean it didnt come out yet so stop tormenting the non memers

I’m pretty sure those are all athletics scholarship people. Just my quick sleuthing, may be wrong though

Vanderbilt released some RD decisions today to those who have been invited to the multicultural program. A girl at my school just received her acceptance. This is definitely scary now

What is the multicultural program?

MOSIAC letters also came today for some students. They applied Regular Decision but received letters today letting them know they were accepted and inviting them to Mosaic weekend. Some of them are told about scholarships at the same time, so the #Vandy 2021, may be accurate. It doesnt help those of you still waiting… Best of luck to you all!

Sounds like suped up AA

No idea, that is what was supposedly included in the admissions decision. Im guessing it is for cultural diversity? This just makes me even more anxious for Wednesday

Mosaic does include minority students, although there are asian students, indian students and white students who get the invitation. From what I understand it can be something in your essay which makes the school think you will be an asset. It is similar to a likely letter at some of the IVY league schools, but it comes as an offer of admission. You can check to vanderbilt Mosaic facebook page for more info.

Just out of curiosity, what are your other choices if vandy doesn’t work out? You’ll probably be able to find me in the Cornell or washu thread. Although I think it is most likely that I end up at upitt haha

Looks like we are finding out for sure on Wednesday

@Failing2017 mine include but aren’t limited to Carleton, Claremont, Tufts, Wake, Wisconsin, etc

Vandy just screwed with me hard. Some kid who applied rd got a scholarship or idk and got in and now I’m getting hundreds of texts and tweets like honestly release them the same day it’s f-ing annoying

I’m still salty about the previous blog post.
I was casually refreshing the blog and it suddenly showed a new post. Never gone from thrilled to sad to pissed off so fast

can anyone of please you share the link of the blog?
Thanks in advance

I’m guessing today we HAVE to get our emails?
There hasn’t been a case where Vandy has released decisions AFTER 15th right?

Idk man this process has been anything but normal

Valentines Day…

Good on Vandy that it didn’t break my heart on Valentine’s Day.
