<p>S got his on the 13th-west coast.</p>
<p>Congratulation everyone!</p>
<p>Accepted!! I feel like an ostrich</p>
<p>Was there a date on your MOSAIC invite? I’m hoping that I got one and it just didn’t arrive in the mail yet…did anyone in the Northeast receive the letter?</p>
<p>I’d have to check again, but I think mine said the weekend of March 15th (15-17).</p>
<p>Oh no, I meant a date in the corner saying when the letter was sent. (e.g. February 14, 2013)</p>
<p>Oh, the eighth of February 
I only got the letter today, though, so there’s probably a pretty big window for those outside the Southeast</p>
<p>Thanks SkeezeyJ! Fingers crossed for this week, haha.</p>
<p>not in NY yet…</p>
<p>I’m from NY and got one…</p>
<p>Congrats randompigeon !!! Where in NY? and when did you receive it? How are your stats as well if you don’t mind me asking?</p>

<p>[megabus.com</a> | Now serving over 20 million bus customers in North America](<a href=“http://us.megabus.com/]megabus.com”>http://us.megabus.com/)
Have you looked into taking Megabus from DC to Nashville? They offer free Wifi with a caveat that it occasionally doesn’t work. All you gotta do is a run from NY to DC via train or bus and get on.<br>
if you have a laptop you can do your homework on the way.
As an AA male with high stats, you will have other options in April so you need to consider this question: What will your parents have to pay at Vandy and at other private schools? If for instance you won merit tuition at Vandy (which is not available at other colleges like Ivies), would that help your family? Or are you going to pay about the same everywhere in April?<br>
I hope everyone comes check out Vanderbilt. A college prof friend of mine recently did megabus from Baltimore to DC to Knoxville. She could rest read and go online on the bus.</p>
<p>Are acceptances still going out?</p>
<p>I want to add support for the Megabus. My D takes it from Chicago to Detroit. Unlike Greyhound, Megabus doesn’t make a bunch of stops that require you to get off for awhile. It is fast and relatively comfortable … and inexpensive.</p>
<p>I wound up purchasing plane tickets. Excited! Will go if I dont get into H, P, Wharton or Duke.</p>
<p>RandomPigeon - Who knows, after you visit Vanderbilt, it may move up higher on your list.</p>
<p>Hey guys, I read online that this mosaic invite is for minorities. I’m guessing white males are probably not included. Do you think Chinese males are considered a “minority”? Has any Chinese males gotten this invite? Thanks</p>
<p>At Vanderbilt, asians are URMs, so probably.</p>
<p>If vandy wanted to promote diversity and integration, it wouldn’t make sense to only recruit AAs and Hispanics. I know a white male who is going.</p>
<p>If you ARE a minority, hispanic more specifically, is it safe to assume you’re getting rejected if you didn’t get the invite? :/</p>
