Vanderbilt c/o 2015 Applicants (2011-2012 cycle) Forum

Thank you! I appreciate the positivity. I'm sure your black box is on its way. Fed ex is probably holding all of them and laughing at our eagerness to receive them!

Fed Ex is probably playing warehouse soccer with them.

Yes probably, but you know, I won't mind if it's a little beat up when it gets here.

Complete September 27th. No reply. I emailed them today and was told that it's just moving along the process and that they do not typically review applications until November and the typical timeframe is ~10 weeks.

Wow! Congrats! They must have been super hyped about your application to have such a fast turnaround.

Haha, I was just afraid it was an auto-reject as i definitely got more than tipsy during my interview and ended up having to take a taxi home instead of driving....yeahhh, always a class act here...

You'll fit in really well at Vandy.

I have been complete with my app since the end of Sept. I did my interview the first week of Oct. I still have no decision mailed. I think I'm headed for the WL or just outright rejection.

If Vandy is high on your list, send a follow up email now reiterating your interest. I did, and two days later my acceptance package was mailed. I think someone earlier in the thread had the same outcome. Vandy is a great school in a secondary market, and a small school, so it's looking for students that really want to be there. An extra email won't hurt, and it just might out you over the top.

PS: For all those accepted, I started a Vandy 2015 thread in the class forum. I'm still not decided on attending, but I am from Nashville and know all the places to hit up in the area, so if anyone has questions, they can ask me there or via PM.

For anyone who has submitted the law scholars application, how long were your responses? I'm thinking a page double spaced for each question.

Thats long. I submitted mine using a field editor in adobe. Fit each response into the the space below each question at 11 (might have been 10) font, single spaced.

Same here, I edited it into the spaces below at 10 point I believe it was. I also went right up to the margins of the page though, so might be a bit longer than usual.

How long was the email you sent? I actually have quite a bit to say since I've learned a lot more about the school since I applied.
