Vanderbilt Transfer Thread [Fall 2017]

@ILR2020
Absolutely not. While most acceptances come out in the first wave, they don’t all come out on that day. When they say rolling decisions, they really mean it.

I got in as a transfer last year on April 15th. I guess they send out patches of decisions every Friday and email notifications every Monday but I am not sure when the first patch would be sent out this year. Good luck everyone!

I have just called Vandy’s admission officer on call and she said that they plan to release the decision on the third week of April. According to her, they’ve just started with the process.

Rolling decisions are pretty random though I do believe. There did not seem to be a rhyme or reason to the order in which they were sent out.

This Friday though?!? :open_mouth:

@SunZhaoyu Straight from the source, thank you for the information!
Third week of April it is, unless they want to surprise us, right? :))

Wow you got a direct answer! That’s pretty behind from past years but thanks for sharing :slight_smile:

i wonder if they count april 1 (just a sat) as week one lol

I think that’s too optimistic lol

I just think its really odd/sketchy that the ad con was so specific. last year they would not give anyone any answer other than “mid to late april”. like ever. and the first wave still came out pretty early

The third week of April could be a “latest” date for the first round. If they have them ready sooner, they’ll submit them sooner.

Conjecture is always fun at this point of the game :)) One thing is for certain, every Friday from here on out is fair game.
Have great weekends, guys! >:)

yea I agree that’s it prolly late estimate. does anybody know what time decisions have been posted on Fridays? I work during day in a job without computer access on Fridays and that will be too much stress to handle lol

@AGoodFloridian
Hmmmm I actually wonder if people who asked Vandy admissions got the same answer tho…

April 21st? Wow that is really specific. Anyone else want to try calling to confirm lol :))

wow my application was just completed today #:-S Here goes nothing lol

@Mastodon97 You mean your checklist? What were you missing earlier?

I think i’ll call them tomorrow. the office is closed rn, no promises tho i’m shy

@newtmon Yup, I was just missing the transfer report which they received in the mail this Saturday.

@somehmonggirl I have to give you credit for going through this process twice. Once is bad enough lol

@HopefullyIGetIn Lol thanks! The second time around is actually so much easier because I knew exactly what I needed to do, got everything in by Jan because I was prepared af. Also because I got my admission decision quite late last year I’m not obsessing over wondering when mine will come in quite as much… I won’t stress about that until May…
