Did anyone's status change prior to having their decision sent? Mine still reads "Application Complete" and was last updated 9/18.

Just got a text from FedEx Delivery Manager that a package has been sent to me from VLS. Yay! Complete on 10/16. PM for stats.

How do you know if your interviewer submitted their notes? Also, how long has it taken everyone to receive a decision after interviewing?

My interview was a breeze, totally painless. You go over your resume, talk Vandy, all the normal things one would expect. Somewhere in the bowels of this forum there was a crazy long thread talking about interviews Q's that had alleged Vandy scoring criteria, suggested Q's for alumnae interviewers etc. May have been from last year. Frankly I would not bother looking. Interview is very straight forward and you shouldn't psych yourself out. There is no "gotcha" trickery or anything. It's only about 30 min. The admissions person was incredibly nice.

Decision Mailed! If I wanted to set up a Fedex account to see if Vandy sent me a package, can I do that? Or can you only be notified if you have established the account before the "decision mailed"?

You can call Fedex to see if you have a package en route to your address.

To clarify in case someone else wonders, if you set up the FedEx account after the decision mailed status shows, you can still get alerted. I have a package on the way from Vanderbilt! Woo!

Anyone have issues with their requested interviewer not responding? Its been only a week for me, but I assumed he/she would contact me to set it up a few days ago.. I have everything done, just not submitting until my interview is scheduled..

i submitted and scheduled + had my skype interview after
there's no need to delay getting the app in if its all done
for reference, my interview contacted me probably after 9-10 days to set up a time

Why not go ahead and submit now? It doesn't seem like there would be any disadvantage.

Im glad I posted, because your posts made me re-read the prompt. I was under the impression I had to wait for the interview to be scheduled before I could submit. Dumb!

Has anyone received a decision yet? About how long was between the interview and decision? Thanks!
