waitlist closed (?)

Bridie · 06-22-2005, 12:29 PM

FYI, My S (out of state applicant) received a letter from admissions today saying that the freshmen class is "oversubscribed" and therefore they won't be retaining him on the waitlist. For us, it came as good news, as he is a very happy Vanderbilt '09er!

hhhsandy · 06-25-2005, 03:36 PM

the ones that got an answer..can u plz tell me if the "online status" change?

So what's the deal? Are we just hung out to dry? My online page changed to "Your application status is not available...," but that's all. Not a word, not a letter, or an email. NOTHING!!!

ilovehomework · 06-27-2005, 07:11 PM

i feel your frustration spyder....i want uva soo bad...the least they can do is tell me whats up.

spyderman24 · 06-27-2005, 07:18 PM

Some might say not knowing is a good thing, as they can still say yes. I've heard other schools are also taking quite a long time with their decisions. I guess the closer we get to July 21st transfer orientation the more we'll know. ARGH!!!

I called admissions a few days ago and transfer apps will be notified anywhere btw end of June to middle of July. Good luck all.

crichessill · 06-28-2005, 04:52 PM

forget it guys, your are not gonna get over it in a second after u see that letter. i just opened it, read it and threw it. besides, if your in , they probably would hav told u by now.

hhhsandy · 06-28-2005, 05:42 PM

what letter?
they sent u a letter and it says nothing???

spyderman24 · 06-28-2005, 08:38 PM

crich, guess you got the "waitlist is closed" letter? If so, I know your pain.
I got one last year. I know for a fact mistakes were made with their handling of my app and transcripts this year. Doesn't mean I'll get in, but it does give me hope.

Thanks for the update wmxfer!

Good luck to all still enduring this torture!!!

i didnt really feel bad or anything after i opened it. i had no hope after april. that said, i still want uva, so i will just transfer out.
