Vanderbilt Law School c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017) Forum

Went complete on 9/1 and interviewed 9/15. Nothing yet. I'm starting to think they found a way to lose a digital application...

same boat here.

Black Box just came in the mail and.....my goodness, if Vandy wasn't my top choice already, it is now. Super excited!

For those admitted already: When after you were admitted did you receive scholarship information??

I asked them when I visited two weeks ago and they said they were expecting scholarship decisions to be made either the last week of February or the first week of March.

I finally ended up waitlisted a few days later. Hopefully you get better news.

Thanks! I just called them today as well and they said the same thing. Good luck!

Did everyone (or anyone) receive an email confirmation when they sent in the Merit scholars application? I sent it over in January (albeit a couple days after the deadline, but there is a "grace period") and I never got an email saying they received it...

Yeah, I got an email confirmation. It also shows up in the status checker under "Mailings."

How convenient for them that the last week of February and first week of March overlap.

Given the relative silence for the past week or so on decisions, I'm wondering if they're holding off until Feb scores are released so they have a clear picture of their final applicant pool. I hope that this isn't the case and we waiters hear something before then, the silence is deafening.

Weird...I have the notice under "Mailings" but never actually got the email.

Yeah, I received an email confirmation. I would call to make sure they received it.

Just got the waitlist e-mail. Guess it's better than a ding.

[2000andBeyond]

I forgot I applied here

[jstans]

Waitlisted.

Is there any way to know if your decision has been mailed, or does a letter/black package just show up one day with no notification?

In my admittance email they stated the day that the black box was getting shipped via 2 day FedEx.

[gizmo1024]

Yepppp. Month and a half or so here. I know that feel. Happy with my current options, but might be happier at Vandy so it's hard to feel settled without an answer. Fingers crossed for you!

If we are super lucky, maybe we will get some scholarship info this week!
