You mentioned that ED II was almost finished. What day are they planning on sending decisions???
January 29th, 2009
Our target mailing date for ED2 letters is currently Friday, February 6th. Our materials usually state 2/15, but we’re hoping to mail earlier this year. Early Decision II committee starts tomorrow.
And for the record, I’m a travel person. Wouldn’t you be if your territory was Chicago and Las Vegas? No seriously, the interaction with families in their home towns – being a resource during this exciting time, that’s cool.

By mailing date do you mean you send out letters on the 6th or applicants
receive letters on the 6th?
February 2nd, 2009
The letters will leave our office on the 6th (again, hopefully).
February 3rd, 2009
Thank you so much for updating information for us.
May I ask two questions?
So, are you going to mail to the international applicants’ mailing addresses or their permanent addresses? And can we call you to know your decisions?
Again, thank you so much and I wish you all a wonderful day.

As much as my fingers itch to go on and on about how Vandy is my top choice school, etc, etc. I’ll spare that for Ms. Harper Haynes 🙂
I do however, want to thank you (and all the staff of Vandy Bloggers) for giving me the confidence that the people that are reading my application are truly interested in me. When I visited Vandy, it would be a lie to say that I didn’t think it was total cliché when they said Vandy looked for reasons to admit…as if!!! However, after reading these blogs and learning more about you guys as individuals I can at least know the AdCom is not a robot, but real people that enjoy sociology and manila folders.

What is the ED II commitee?
February 6th, 2009
Hi all, thank you for your comments and questions! Huynh, we will mail decisions today to all students that attend high school in the US. For any student attending high school outside the US, we will email the decisions on Monday or Tuesday. We will release decisions by phone for any student that has not yet received a decision on Wednesday, February 11.
Maria, you’re welcome! We’re always happy to pull back the curtain on our process as much as we can, we strive to be honest and transparent with our students and families.
VandyMine, I’m not 100% sure what information you’re looking to know. If you’re wondering what committee is, it’s a process during which we discuss the students who are right on the bubble for admission or who need discussion before we can decide what to do and it works in basically the same way at ED1, ED2, and Regular Decision. We’ll talk more about that process in a future post, I’m sure. I think, though, that you might be asking about the statistics/profile for ED2 and we’ll release that information at a later date.

So, just clarifying, EDII letters were put in the mail today?
Thank you guys for running this blog so openly and honestly. It seriously has been so helpful in this whole process!
