Genuinely phenomenal essays…I’m pretty sure that’s the only reason I made the waitlist. I’m pretty happy with the result to be fair. Best of luck to everyone else and hopefully everyone finds the right school for them, vandy or otherwise
Did anyone in this thread get accepted in Political Science. Most were waitlisted in the first wave, I guess?
Did you write an essay about your EC along with an essay about why you wanted to go to Vanddy?
■■■, I didnt see a space to elaborate on an EC…
For those of you that got accepted in the first wave: any of you thinking of rejecting the offer?
Did you use coalition or common app to apply?
common app
Sorry then I’m at a loss…
Anyone know when the next wave might come out?
I’m predicting around May 8th. But could be sooner because someone posted about an admitted transfer students event on May 3rd so maybe this Thursday if we’re lucky.
Anyone get waitlisted?
I did
Idk if this is for everyone but Im going to accept the offer just in case I don’t get into my other schools since the deposit deadline is may 6th for those in the first wave.
Just checked my portal and the admission checklist just disappeared
Pls chance me before the decisions come out or something - thought decisions were two weeks basis but apparently not
Currently a freshman (will be a sophmore in fall 2021)
Was waitlisted last year at vandy
2.3 HS GPA and 4.0 College GPA at UNC
decent recs
very unique essay about flipping burgers at McDonald
-was recently accepted in NYU Stern
My admission checklist was still there and I am from UNC too
just refreshed mine and it’s still gone. idk if that’s a good sign
What school did you apply to?
Who knows but if your decision is coming out soon then we could find out
