I am applying ED to Vanderbilt this fall.
My counselor told me that ED and EA applications do not see our quarter grades (progress report).
My concern is that two of my teachers have posted quarter grades which are inaccurate because of projects which are not completed: one because my partner is out sick and the other because we did not have enough class time to get to my presentation.
I am concerned because the grade reporting software gives me a zero those important assignments and now my grades are B+’s in classes I should and did have an A in.
Should I pursue this further when the teachers and counselor say it doesn’t matter?

Thanks for your question, and I’m glad to hear you’ve decided to apply! My best advice is for you to contact your Vanderbilt admissions counselor. Reaching out to your admissions counselor is never a bad idea, and they are in the best position to handle the specifics of your personal grade situation.
