Vanderbilt Waitlist 2026

I think a miniature wave happened today. Class might be getting very close to full based on the size so I would send in one last email to your regional AO. Best of luck to all

Hereā€™s a paraphrased version of an email that I sent to my ao a few days ago:

"Hi _____,
Iā€™m writing this email to update my continued interest in attendingā€¦ Talk about why you believe in the strength of VUā€™s programsā€¦ etc.

I think my main problem before was that I only spoke about what I could do for Vandy and not what Vandy could do for me. Hope this helps.

Just to be clear. The counselor from your (public) high school can Vanderbilt? What did V say re: your app to the counselor, if anything?

Then you heard via email?

I think i understand what youā€™re asking but correct me if Iā€™m wrong:
-VU contacted my counselor not the other way around
-Was told to check my email as soon as possible by counselor
-Opened email that I assume is the same as people who are let off the traditional way (limited time to reply then limited window for deposit)

My friend also got off the waitlist but I never got a interest confirmation email. Did anyone else?

Does anybody know if they took people off the list from Iowa?

Or Nebraska?

Congratulationsļ¼

Thank you! All clear now. It seemed that your counselor called Vanderbilt, but he/she didnā€™t.

Are you talking about your letter of continued interest or your letter of recommendation

Was that email sent today or Monday?

Was the interest email sent out confirming that you want to stay on the waitlist? I didnā€™t get anything so Iā€™m wondering

I have no idea, my bad!

For the Monday wave, do I have to make a decision today? My financial aid offer is still being negotiated so idkā€¦.

Thanks for the answer and Congratulations!

Are any of the waitlist acceptances for Peabody?

has anyone emailed an admissions officer. If so can you pass along any news? thanks

Still the same as before is what I got. Basically keep staying active on the waitlist and when itā€™s closed, theyā€™ll let everyone know.
