For what school did they get the acceptance email for?
My friend was the school of Arts and Sciences
The majority of waitlist acceptances goes to Arts&Sci. Engineering and other schools are not only smaller but also admit students based on majors
Was your friendās email exactly at 12 as well?
No, my friend got it a little after 1; also, Iām really nervous since Iām waiting on engineering and last year people werenāt posting anything engineering related at first I hope itās soon
Hey guys, I got accepted off the wait list at 12:13 today. Iām excited to say that Iāll be a commodore next year! Btw I got accepted into the college of A&S. Good luck to everyone else!
Congrats! And I think the first āwaveā of acceptances might be over. But weāll see.
Yeah good luck to everyone over the next couple of weeks. Iām still on the waitlist, but Iām hoping we all hear back soon.
I didnāt send in anything toward my interest in Vandy, thoughā¦I probably should. Well, I surprisingly got wait listed with only one letter of recommendation. My second teacher didnāt submit her letter of recommendation until literally the day that they released decisions haha, but should I email them and let them know that the second letter is on CommonApp? Or would they already see that?
Congrats to you luck kiddos! A little frustrated that I am not though:/
Another waitlisted engineering applicant here.
I really want to know whether the first wave is over for all different schools and how it was for engineering waitlistees in the pastā¦
lets keep the hope guys!
I keep stressing out about this even though Iām in UMich Engineering alreadyā¦
Honestly, I think the less we stress, the better. My Arts and Science friend only sent an āupdateā letter and got admitted today, whereas I sent an update letter and a letter of recommendation from my principal and I havenāt heard back yet (engineering)ā¦ not sure if itās harder cuz it admits less or easier because less people applyā¦ but enjoy life and be happy with your choice as of right now, and remember, God always has a plan! Best of luck to everyone, even though Iāll probably be roaming this daily
I was waitlosted at Vandy and got taken off the waitlist at one of my dream schools. However, I have not gotten the financial aid package yet. I read a bunch of stuff about how your FA package is worse if you get off the waitlist so I was wondering if you guys who got off the waitlist were given a good package. Like Vanderbilt, this school is need blind and meets full need but is an LAC. Any ideas?
Hey @couplemoreweeks Iām a rising first-year at Vandy, and I was admitted off the wait list last summer. My FA package was VERY generous despite being admitted off the wait list. They definitely kept their promise about meeting 100% of need. As far as I know, they do this regardless of how you receive your acceptance.
Thank you! Did you write them a letter!?
To those accepted off the wait list - how long did they give you to make a decision?
I was admitted yesterday; you have to accept within 72 hours, so I have until May 5.
Heyā¦ Any international off WL?
@ysuhaas congrats dude!
So it appears that May 6 will begin 2nd wave.
Did all of you guys who got off send out letters of continued interest?
