Where did you see that they extended the deadline to today? Just curious because I was going to submit my scholarship app if this is the case!
They sent an email out. Today is the deadline.

I was in the same boat. Sent them an email asking them to wait until my Feb score is released. Wondering if I would've had to wait even if I hadn't asked lol

I got a call early in the morning from Fedex telling me I had package to pick up. I run downstairs half expecting it to be the vaderbilt black box (the other half thinks I'll just be waitlisted at most). It was from one of my safety schools :(

+1
I am going to take this as a positive for once this cycle. I applied back in September and interviewed shortly thereafter, so they have had plenty of time to review my app. I feel like if they didn't waitlist me with this first round, maybe I am borderline admit at this point. LSAT is above 75th. So maybe, just maybe, I will be accepted this upcoming week.

As a general range, where would you guess the curve typically sits for median, top 1/3, and dean's list? I've heard median is like 3.15ish and dean's is in the ballpark of 3.5XX-3.6XX - does that sound right to you?

Sounds believable. I'm just complaining because I like to pretend that it will make me feel better. :roll:

Does anyone know how I can withdraw my application? Can't seem to find an option for it anywhere.

Has anyone made plans to visit Vanderbilt and tried to use their offer to reimburse expenses? If so, how did that work? Feel free to pm me if you don't want to post! Thanks!

I RSVP'ed for ASW but I haven't looked any further into travel reimbursement as I won't be going until April. They're pretty clear about reimbursing "up to $400 of reasonable travel expense" so hopefully there won't be too much hoop-jumping to get it.

EDIT: I think the $400 travel reimbursement is exclusively for the 2 ASW dates. I'm not sure if that's what you were referring to or if you meant a general visit, no clue about a general, independent visit.

Is that the case? That complicates things... Their dates overlap with a lot of other ASDs. (Vandy only does "days", not "weekends", right? I have March 18 and April 8.)

Same, I was hoping this applied to independent visits as well for those of us who can't go to ASW

I guess I could just email the admissions office to figure this out, but I still have anxiety about emailing admissions about anything

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
