Apparently, they are two not one. There are two on reddit declaring they got off the waitlist for MechE.

Someone else at my school also claims he was let off the waitlist as of a couple hours ago I wanna say. I think he’s doing something related to computer science so that at least seems consistent with the others let in for sciences/engineering.

Another got off for SEAS. Seems like they’re doing a wave for SEAS first.

Oh nice!

Historically, more ppl get off after the 15th right? So they’ll probably have a second wave?

I’m speculating that this was a wave for SEAS, and that there will be a subsequent wave for the College.

I’m basing much expectations on Columbia. I know that’s wrong, but I just can’t stop doing it. I hope the college pulls waitlist names heavily next Friday.

Do they release decisions only on fridays?

I called the admissions office. They said no earlier than May 15.

Columbia already released some waitlist decisions last Friday, but remarkably they were only for SEAS. I am optimistic about the college; hopefully, they take a lot of waitlistees.

BTW, what majors are you guys applying to?

I am applying as a PoliSci
