Wait list?

<p>Ancalagon, when did your friend receive the call? Last week?</p>

<p>jc40 what state are you from?</p>

<p>I dont know if a lot of you know about this but the Vandy admissions office has a blog and they keep it updated pretty well on the status of everything</p>

<p>[The</a> Vandy Admissions Blog](<a href=“http://admissions.vanderbilt.edu/vandybloggers/]The”>The Vandy Admissions Blog | Vanderbilt University)</p>

<p>Has anyone heard if they’ll be calling more this week? Any idea how the yield is looking? (i.e. How many spots do you project they still have?)</p>

<p>they said they started the 2nd round on friday and would be calling in the next 2-3 days. im not sure if that meant friday, saturday, sunday or friday, monday, tuesday</p>

<p>I read that on the blog, too, but I’ve yet to hear of more who’ve been accepted. I wonder how many, and who they’re targeting (i.e. ethnic, geographic, and college [engineering, A&S, etc.]). Anyone receive a call since last Friday?</p>

<p>Has anyone from TX received a call for A & S?</p>

<p>^ no, and i’ve been stalking my admissions rep ughh</p>

<p>anybody get a call in the “second wave?” Was there actually a “second wave” of offers from the waitlist?</p>

<p>I got a call just now! :D</p>

<p>So yes, the second wave does exist.</p>

<p>Does the fin aid package email come separate from the acceptance email??</p>

<p>Xminity…which college did you apply to? What region of the country do you live? Are you a URM by chance? M or F?</p>

<p>@jc40 </p>

<p>I applied to the college of arts and science. I live in the West, and am a female. I am in no way a URM (more of a RM… which I think is more of a disadvantage than being white in terms of these admission processes) but I have always wished I were.</p>

<p>I am freaking out. I need my financial aid info, which I have not yet received, and I can’t contact them until Tuesday, which means my response may not be sent on time! ahh!</p>

<p>Looking through xmintyfresh’s posts, it appears she is from Alaska - probably an under-represented state…not to take anything away from your stats, xmint. You are certainly qualified.</p>

<p>XMinity…thanks for the response. I wouldn’t worry too much about the deadline; surely they understand the holiday wkd has delayed things a bit. Simply call them first thing Tuesday morning and inquire about financial aid rewards. I hope it works out for you. Vanderbilt was my daughter’s dream school, and she was crushed (and a bit shocked) when she was waitlisted. Her other offers, albeit great, fell short of igniting a “YEA” response. We’re from an over-represented area, and she’s applying to A&S, so we’re not very optimistic. The two girls she knows who have been admitted from the area were both engineering candidates. Oh well – if it’s meant to be, it will happen. Good luck!</p>

<p>…stalker much? you could’ve asked… sorry, don’t appreciate creepers.</p>

<p>and @jc40, thanks.</p>

<p>Sorry, Xminty. Not a stalker. When you stated you were from “the west”, I was curious. I think the state you are from can make a difference. Didn’t mean to offend you in any way.</p>

<p>Any one know if there is any recent movement off the wait list?..or is 2010 admissions a done deal.</p>

<p>Our son received a call that he was accepted off the wait list on 5/28. Happily accepted.</p>

<p>Congrats Kchopeful! Do you mind me asking what college w/in Vandy he had applied to or what region of the country he’s from? Best of luck!</p>
