<p>I had this happen to me at UMaryland, it’s just a “waitlist” sorta but better(or worse depends how you look at it).You’re waitlisted for the Fall, but you still have the opportunity to go to BU this January.</p>
<p>There’s not really any way to increase your chances, but she had me email her after the reception to help her remember who I was and that I was still interested in September. In general it could go either way. Did you get the email with the FAQs for January 2012 admitted students? That helps a lot.</p>
