Villanova 2018 Regular Decision

<p>@kayyx3dee its not letting me accept the spot either… maybe its just a glitch ill try again later. </p>

<p>@kayyx3dee </p>

<p>im having the same problems</p>

<p>Waitlisted. Bummer. I really wanted to be a part of the Nova Family. Congrats to all who got in! I think you will be very happy there. :)</p>

<p>their deferral/waitlist letters are very cold and impersonal… anyone else get the same feel? I mean they ddnt even address us with our first names… all they said was “Candidate:”</p>

<p>Does anyone get that 404 error message when trying to get into the site?</p>

<p>Accepted VSB!!!
Goodluck to everyone!</p>

<p>Son is in for engineering. :slight_smile: He saw the video but when he tried to sign in again to show it to me, it wouldn’t let him. I suspect servers are “busy”. For those who are wait-listed, I saw a stat that Nova accepted 350 from last year’s WL so definitely worth doing. </p>

<p>I got accepted! So excited… </p>

<p>cant get into my nova Its giving me a http 404 report and then it
said Apache anyone know</p>

<p>My D was wait listed for nursing</p>

<p>I believe error report any one else have problem</p>

<p>D rejected for nursing :(. Oh well…other great options!</p>

<p>Waitlisted VSB after defferal… darn</p>

<p>For those of you that did get accepted, do you mind posted stats so those of us that are waitlisted can get an idea of where we might possibly stand on the list?</p>

<p>@ratchg sure I’ll post mine!</p>

Good luck to everyone else!! My school is super competitive and I was pretty immature through sophomore/beginning of junior year so my grades are definitely a turn off. I really love Villanova and am so happy I got in!</p>
