  1. I received an email less than an hour after I asked that haha. I'm turning them down for Baylor, so hopefully that will help you out if you're still considering them!
  2. I have not! The email said to fill out the FAFSA, so I think they're waiting for those
  3. I was emailed to do a really last minute Skype interview a couple weekends ago, and did. I have not received anything since and my portal has not changed at all. The department director said they were trying to make final decisions by the end of the month, so I'm hoping we'll hear soon! If I get in it will be really difficult for me to visit before the April 15th deadline since it's getting late
  4. I was accepted to Rush on March 1st so that's weird you haven't heard one way or the other! Have you tried emailing them?
  5. I'm still waiting to hear from The University of Alabama, South Alabama, and for a final decision from Baylor. Did anyone else Skype interview with Baylor last weekend? I received an email asking to the night before, which was kind of odd.
  6. I feel the exact same way! I'm just telling myself I automatically won't get in to Vandy because I want it so badly. I visited and the clinical opportunities were beyond amazing, and living in Nashville would be fun. I did see a post somewhere on grad cafe about how a people were unhappy with the program once they were in, but that may have just been a specific year or situation. I have no idea why anyone would. It's possible whoever posted confused Chapel Hill with Iowa or UW since decisions just went out for them, but I also like to believe the best in people.
  7. I have also not heard a word from Chapel Hill so I'm wondering if that post was fake. Either way I'm anxiously waiting to hear back, Chapel Hill and Vanderbilt are my top two, but they're also the least likely to accept me
  8. Has anyone received an email from Rush with the supplementary application? It was supposed to be sent the first, so it's only a day late but I'm getting nervous I might not have made the cut
  9. A couple of the schools I'm applying to (Rush and Vanderbilt specifically) require 3 recommendation letters, but allow you to submit up to five. I have three professors, all in the SLP department, who are willing to write me letters. I have done undergraduate volunteering or research for all of them and additionally had a class with one where I went to his office hours very frequently. Should I just submit those three recommendation letters because they are the strongest I have, or submit five? I could ask a couple professors that are out of department that I have had a single class with each that liked me, or else I had a professor in the department that I took two classes with and sometimes went to her office hours. The only thing would be that she is very likely getting a ton of requests for rec letters from other undergrads right now. I also work at a nursery and could ask my supervisors to write me one (part of my personal statement will be how I want to work in pediatrics.) Another issue is that one of the professors I already have said that she will write me a general letter to send anywhere, but Vanderbilt has a small survey at the bottom of their rec letter form. I do not want to have to ask her to fill it out since she implied she does not want to have to do separate letters, so would it hurt my chances that her letter would not have the survey?
