Vanderbilt University Transfer Thread Fall 2016

Well, regardless it seems the decisions won’t come until 5:30 PM CST on the day they are released. I’m in a constant state of anxiety every day now, lol. Also feels like so many more qualified people applied so I’m nervous

It really seems more competitive this year than prior years.

@applicant1000 @somehmonggirl I see what you guys mean but also keep in mind, this thread is no where near as popular or large as the transfer threads have been in the past. There isn’t much to go off of and also everyone is different, everyone applied to different majors, we all go to different universities and went to different high schools, we can’t really truly compare ourselves and that’s just up to admissions. I hope we all make it and nothing to worry about competitiveness wise, Vanderbilt is great so I wouldn’t expect anything less! Good luck let’s hope we can all Anchor Down this fall!!

Hey guys! I emailed my admissions rep and she said this "We do not have a specific date that decisions will be available as we admit on a rolling basis but you will receive an email letting you know when your decision is available. We will begin to make offers in the next week or so. " Hopefully we all find out soon! Post as soon as you guys hear!

haha thats what I should’ve done rather than speculate but oh well… I guess we should look forward to next week.

do you all have any idea how much they take into account the prestige or your current university?
i am worried that i do not have the best gpa, however i go to a school with a similar acceptance rate as vanderbilt

It’s not much, but my financial aid tab changed today

Mine did too, hmmm!

How to did it change?

@2Brown4MyOwnGood It changed from saying CSS profile was received to showing everything they received.

Thanks! Have you sent in yours and your parents tax returns yet? Just curious because it’s asking my to upload those but AFTER finding out if I get accepted??

@2Brown4MyOwnGood Yeah same lol

Mine changed, too. I’m sure everyone’s changed. This does show they seem to be preparing to send out decisions if you ask me though!

You will get info about sending your forms and stuff in if you get accepted through an email from IDOC

mine changed as well ! hahaha but I got rejected from northwestern earlier this day. I hope I can get in to vandy !

I am also a transfer applicant and I just found out about the financial tab yesterday. What the financial tab was like before? and @resonanx , I got rejected by NU yesterday too!

Never mind. I just read the previous posts

I guess some of us might get their decision tomorrow around 6 pm. Just a guess. I don’t know from any official sources.

What IS that guess based on?

Yeah, I would agree @sohowgoodami I would say the first waves of decisions would be tomorrow night, or Monday hopefully. @2Brown4MyOwnGood From past years, rounds of decisions were released on either Mondays or Fridays (esp. around this time for the first round of decisions) and the change in Fin Aid pages probably indicates that decision are nearby, some will know before others but hopefully notification begins tomorrow!
