Was placed on the WL about a month ago. Applied in mid January. Submitted the reply form to stay on the list but didn't write any LOCI or submit LOR.
+1. Absence of big money will make it a nonstarter but looking forward to see the package

Jesus christ all 3 of you have the same numbers. I have very similar numbers to you guys, hopefully they'll let me in without wait-listing me

Maybe its easy to figure out my numbers but I am now imagining you with like a spreadsheet titled "TLSers stats" on your desktop

Haha, you messaged me your numbers. BTW you've had a very nice cycle, in at GT and Vandy, very nice.

I've been waitlisted(regular) at GT and still waiting on Vandy.. I really really want Vandy

Congrats to all of you! I am truly excited for everyone getting that YES because I am sure it's a huge relief, especially with the news of $$ coming! Scary for me still awaiting an initial decision...makes me think it's not looking good if they went back to reevaluate their waitlist before they finished reviewing the original applications? Yikes. Hope is dwindling on this one but still holding on...!!

Congrats to those admitted off the waitlist! Did you all send LOCIs/follow-up emails/etc. that you think may have helped your chances or was it just luck?

It's mostly a book written about current students all about Vanderbilt (e.g. what to expect, where to live, where to go, 1L year, etc).

I was really hoping that my decision would be sent out yesterday..

No moleskine notebook, unfortunately. But there is a book written by current students that seems to have a ton of info, plus bumper stickers, faculty catalogs, info sheets, and obviously your offer letter. By far though, the most helpful item was the "OD" (the obiter dictum). I've been using it to find out where to look for housing.

Has anyone still waiting gotten any sort of timeline for a decision? Or are we still expecting mid-May to June or by 2L summer at another school?

I emailed admissions asking that question...well, the first part of that question. Sent the email last Thursday, haven't heard back yet.

If the decisions don't get mailed out by the end of this week then..idk..i'll just be incredibly irritated
