Vanderbilt Fall 2020 Transfer Thread

Sloane Stuart

My admission counselor first said that they could not read my 12th-grade transcript. But after my response, she said that my decision was not on the first wave even though I submitted my application on March 3. How ridiculous!

@vanessabrandon same thing happened to me but with my official transcript

Any guess on when the next wave will come? Last year it was two weeks after the first waveā€¦

@JeanSs I was thinking the same thing. However, last year and this year have been quite different. It may be worth taking into consideration the deposit date for the first wave applicants is next Thursday 5/28

Hey guys! Iā€™m about to decline my offer from Vanderbilt. Itā€™s a great school, but I just canā€™t justify going there over other places when they arenā€™t giving housing.

My suspicion is that they will get a lower yield because of the housing situation and (possibly) accept more people. Just my theory, though. Best of luck, and I hope thereā€™s another wave of acceptances!

Just an FYI for everyone deciding, my son contacted the other schools where he was also offered admissions and they are also saying they are not guaranteeing transfer housing for the fall. At least Vanderbilt was up front about it as opposed to the other schools who said nothing in their admissions letter and only told us when asked outright.

I GOT INNNNNN FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS FOR ONCE IN MY LIFE GEEZā€¦okay but the off campus housing policy sux

@mlplover69 When did you get in and what school? Did the 2nd wave come out already?

Accepted. Got an email 20 minutes ago. Lol who wouldā€™ve thought.

apply to 7 schoolsā€¦ 6 said no. All you need is ONE YES! I GOT IN :slight_smile: Congrats to all the other admitted students. To anyone who didnā€™t get in, keep grinding all you need is one break. :slight_smile:

How do we join the admitted students chat that was set up?

@Transfersssss got an email at 5:54pm EST for College of Arts and Science

@Transfersssss I also applied to College of Arts and Sciences, my email notification came in like 25 min ago. it didnā€™t go to my main inbox though

Accepted for CAS (Pub Pol) today. 3.75 GPA from a T40.

I just got in CAS as a rising junior

Canā€™t believe itā€¦ I had a 2.6 GPA in my junior year of high school and I worked so hard ever since to make up for it.

Congrats to everyone!
