When I called the admissions office on Wednesday they said they hoped to start calling on Friday and into the weekend. Could have changed, though. I just want to know if I can stop obsessing over every buzz from my phone for the night/week

If we don't hear back now, can we pretty much expect a WL or R in February?

Pre-II R as well. After seeing their averages for shadowing, volunteering, and research hours prior to applying, I figured either your parents were doctors and you decided to become a doctor while a freshman in high school, or you took a year off before, during, or after getting your undergrad degree, or you had military or some other non-traditional experience such as a Masters degree or working as an RN or other health professional before applying. Congrats to all who got into Vandy! I'm into at least one med school and its a great school and have several more to hear back from that I interviewed with, so no matter what the future is bright, and I also know my individual effort will determine my future.

When they made the call, did they mention what kind of scholarship you will be receiving? Or do you have to ask to find out?

I didn’t get a scholarship, but I imagine they would just tell you. There’s no reason they would have scholarship decisions made and withhold that/ wait for you to ask.

someone asked this on my interview day- they said if you received one of the merit scholarships (75% or 100% tuition coverage) they would tell you on the phone call. If not they’ll tell you financial aid decisions will be made in April, but that’s for their need based aid.

Do they give out merit scholarships in both the December and February wave?

edit: according to last years thread, there were scholarships given out in feb

My friend who also interviewed hasn’t heard anything and they interviewed the session before me. Hope that helps.

Maybe they haven't gotten around to calling everyone just yet so I'm still hopeful. Either way, congrats to you on the acceptance. Vandy is a great program

"Candidates must reply to an offer of acceptance via an online process within two weeks of invitation".

Anyone remember when we can do this?

Let us know if they're gonna be making more calls if you do check in, please! Would love to know if they plan on calling again on Monday

Anyone who’s already accepted get an email/portal change?

Yes.

But also, I think it stands for the Cornelius Vanderbilt Scholarship

I don't think anyone calls it as CVS :) It's called CV (Cornelius Vanderbilt) and I believe it's 70% tuition.
 
So I take it that if you were not given an offer in the December batch then chances are pretty slim of receiving an offer in February? This is tough, I really like Vandy/Nashville
