I was rejected when I tried to negotiate, and I haven't heard of anybody who has succeeded this cycle.

Have you gone through the thread for names to see?

Does LSN show anyone still pending?

I'm still waiting on an initial decision. Went complete on 3/10. I just assume that I've been unofficially waitlisted at this point.

Well it seems as though they are still going through applications, albeit slowly. I went complete on 2/27 so while my total wait time is not as long as many others here suffered through, going into the second week of May every day that goes by feels like an eternity! But I will remain positive and hope for some happy end results

Mine says decision sent 05/04 but I haven't received anything yet.

Decision mailed today (went complete 2/10)

Already made other plans, though, so this is just for closure

ETA: unless they sweep me off my feet with an offer, but I'm not optimistic after three months in review

The worst they can say is no, but I'm pretty sure they almost always do.

DECISION MAILED!!! WOOOOOOO!!!! The wait is finally over! Well...almost. Not really expecting much but I tried signing up for FedEx Delivery Manager just in case and of course I got a strange error message which the nice customer service lady told me means I have moved within the past 90 days. I have been living in the same place for 2.5 years...lol.

Decision mailed today and the inevitable WL via email shortly thereafter.

Any news about the wait list?

storpappa · Post by **storpappa** » Tue Jun 02, 2015 10:51 am

LSN isn't much help. It does show 10 movements on the WL, 5 accepted off the WL with no status, and 5 accepted off the WL who Withdrew
59 in the WL pool with no decision or updates
and 25 WL no decision Withdrew
The Pending list is huge, as are the Admits, with no follow-up status A or W. I wish LSN would message people to ask them to update their details, hopeful make the info more complete

Does anyone know anything at all about being on the wait list right now? Can't believe they haven't sent out any type of mass email updating us.

I just got an email today saying I was accepted off of the waitlist and have to decide by 6/12. They asked me to confirm my mailing address so they can mail the offer packet. I guess I will have to decide the day I get the packet by the time it arrives through snail mail.

The funny thing is I never filled out the waitlist response form, I had assumed they had withdrawn my application.

Edit: Offer details were emailed after I confirmed my mailing address.

They let a bunch of people in last week. Personally I didn't accept the offer

Poldy · Post by **Poldy** » Mon Jun 15, 2015 9:20 pm

They called today (unexpected, especially since I didn't return the WL paperwork). They said they had a spot/scholarships available so there is still hope for anyone riding the WL.

Got accepted off the waitlist with $ on 6/15, haven't kept in contact with the office since I got waitlisted so I was a little shocked when I got the call. $15,000/year scholly wasn't much but probably more than someone with my numbers deserves. Already deposited at a lower T1 but Vandy's looking more and more attractive
