Vanderbilt Transfer Thread [Fall 2017]

@deterr Literally all of us_irl lol, though if you get a decision you will most likely be accepted (based on past year’s threads)

It was this one: https://webapp.mis.vanderbilt.edu/adam/secure/applicant/decision

Now, on a web browser, it takes me to the login page. When I first opened it on page 59 on Monday when it was just glitching out. When I opened it on my phone, I got “you are not authorized to view the contents of this page”.

On the flip side, we are only two days before the April 15th stated by the person in the admissions department. So I am starting to lean towards more likely

btw @somehmonggirl did you get into northeastern? I saw you said decisions were released.

@HopefullyIGetIn And three days after they released the decisions last year. Also, we were expecting decisions on Friday, so Thursday is not a stretch at all. I just can’t see the portal being down as a coincidence.

Either decisions are coming tomorrow, we crashed the page due to checking it so many times, or the Vandy webmaster decided to t.roll us lol.

@HopefullyIGetIn i didn’t get a decision from them today although others did and it was actually northwestern! :slight_smile:

@watermychances It’s not necessarily that we’ll all receive decisions tomorrow (or Friday). But the portal being down may mean at least some decisions are being updated. Maybe the update procedure is system-wide for all applicants including those still without a decision.

@somehmonggirl Didn’t you post about something like this happening last year but it still ended up taking weeks to find out your decision?

@somehmonggirl oh ok, apologize for typo. Northwestern>>>>>>>>>Northeastern. But, back to vandy

@deterr I want to agree with you. But I got so revved up for decisions coming out last Monday and do not want to do that to myself again.

Sometimes portals are updated at weird times. I wouldn’t be surprised if they set it up to do it later at night, outside of business hours, so people wouldn’t be looking while it was crashed.

Little did they know that we would abandon sleep in favor of waiting anxiously admissions decisions.

@HopefullyIGetIn I think that, more likely than not, some people will hear back this week. Whether it will be on Thursday or Friday, I do not know.

Do we have any idea as to what time decisions would come? Would it be between 9-4, or is there a chance we could get them at midnight Vandy time (23 minutes)?

@deterr midnight decisions did take place 3 years ago. Haven’t since then though.

@HopefullyIGetIn vicious refreshing intensifies

I wouldn’t get amped up for that though. No reason to think they will happen

Portal is still down

Nothing this year has been normal, so I honestly would be prepared for anything to happen.

watch their is actually something wrong with portal and we will have to receive decisions via USPS $-)

@Mastodon97 wait, are we still talking about Vandy addmisssions, or are we talking about politics?

@HopefullyIGetIn I’m talking about the Earth in 2017 :smiley:
