@Waitlistedparent Yes- I am currently waitlisted at 3 of my top choices, including UChicago. I will very likely (almost definitely) go if I get in.
@lycheejellys - your response sounded uncertain (I would definitely consider it) and gathered that you were trying to keep your options open…
Yes - its definitely a good sign. congrats. what is your intended major ?
@lycheejellys hey, I was wondering what u send in or did after u got waistlisted?
@Waitlistedparent I haven’t visited UChicago, which is mainly why I have any hesitance.
@hs2020dad Thank you!! I intend to major in biochemistry on the pre-med track.
@Hopharv I sent in a LOCI to my admissions officer on April 1, giving updates (NM scholarship, performances, etc) and expressing my interest in UChicago. I gave specific examples of why I liked UChicago and how I would contribute to their school.
@pogilicious Has your regional admission officer sent you the confirmation email?
@lycheejellys most definitely you got in!! could you please tell me if you are domestic or international?
@milhojas I’m domestic
@85bears46 Hi! They have not 
I emailed them yesterday asking when I should expect an update. No response as of yet.
I just got in to the Class of 2024!!! My regional AO emailed me and I’m international 
Did you apply for financial aid?
@milhojas - great job! Congratulations!!!
@cyl267 i didn’t
@pogilicious Right now it is 4/15 Wednesday CDT. I would advise if you still haven’t gotten any confirmation email by tomorrow early afternoon, try to call your regional admission officer and POLITELY ask him.
@milhojas May I know where are you from? I am also an international student. Thanks
I am amazed they are accepting international students with so much uncertainty on visas but great to see. That’s not really managing yields if they can’t get visas done
@85bears46 I actually just received an email back from my officer and a status change a couple hours ago!
Thank goodness because I was kind of losing my mind. Thank you for checking back in
@nicolas13120 from south america!
@pogilicious - great job! I guess it took a while for the UChicago server to update (like weekday, overnight plus 1 maybe 2)?
@airway1 - it sounds to me like UChicago is not too concerned with their yield being around 80% but placing high emphasis on shaping the Freshman class (composition, like Nondorf’s address to the admitted students)…
