I also got waitlisted.
Welcome to the club @bradthegrad2019 
It was the nicest waitlist letter I have ever received, lol.
rejected
Well I was rejected from Amherst but just was accepted to Bucknell. Both schools are very similar. Good luck everyone!
@gluttonousoyster @weirdfishes95 @milkshakezzz What are you guys planning on doing? Have you all heard back from anywhere else yet?
@bradthegrad2019 i plan on intubating myself with a 2:1 ratio of nitrous oxide to O2 for the next week. Might just go off and become a stripper too… Just kidding insert nervous laugh. I was rejected from Cornell, and am still waiting to hear back from Wesleyan, Yale, Duke and Dartmouth. Hbu?
@bradthegrad2019 I’ve been accepted to Vanderbilt, so I’ll be going there if I don’t hear good news from Duke, Amherst, Cornell, or Northwestern in the next couple weeks.
Anyone know around when we should expect final decisions for waitlisted people?
@lkhalil98 I sent an email just asking for more information on the whole process and mentioned that I’m still interested in attending, but I haven’t accepted my spot on the list yet.
@bradthegrad2019 I’m actually already enrolled at Rutgers because I had to respond by May 1, kind of an awkward situation since I knew I was still waiting on decisions from 4 other schools. I also got accepted to Bryn Mawr about an hour after I got the decision from Amherst, and the only school I’m still waiting to hear from is Swarthmore, but I don’t think I have a great shot there anyway. Once I get my answer from them and my financial aid package from Bryn Mawr I’ll have to decide whether it’s realistic to stay on the list at Amherst. I’d really like to go, but I’ll most likely be enrolling at Bryn Mawr as of right now if the aid works out, and I don’t know that I can afford to forfeit 2 deposits. 
@gluttonousoyster It’s a smart idea to ask those questions. I myself am not sure how the process is going to go. In my case, I’m on the wait list at Pomona and am also hoping to hear back from Carleton, Duke, Brown, and the University of Rochester soon.
Daughter got denied at Amherst yesterday, accepted at the BU School of Business today… roller coaster!
@milkshakezzz Funny! I had the same idea. I got into Vanderbilt, and am waiting on the schools you mentioned minus Wes.
@weirdfishes95 Congrats on Vanderbilt! Are you planning to go down to see it?
@gluttonousoyster Yeah the dates are tough; in my opinion, it’s a major flaw with transfer admissions. Bryn Mawr is great, though! Congrats on your good news.
@bradthegrad2019 Thanks! And yeah, the dates are definitely a pain when it comes to transfer admissions. Rutgers was kind of my safety since I’m transferring out of a Jersey CC but I tried to talk to their admissions office and explain the situation, and they couldn’t give me an extension or anything, so I had to make the deposit there just to make sure I didn’t end up with nowhere to go.
@CTvbDad Congratulations to your daughter on BU!
Thanks… I think for her she would love either, she would have gone to Amherst if accepted but BU was her close 2nd and is happy to have been selected.
@bradthegrad2019 Just got into Wesleyan on a full scholarship!
@milkshakezzz Congrats!! That’s awesome news. You have some great choices.
@bradthegrad2019 Congratulations on Vanderbilt as well!!!
Hi - Mum of a Mt. Holyoke student hoping to transfer to Amherst. She’s been waitlisted at Amherst but accepted to Wesleyan. Is it possible to find out where you are on the waitlist at Amherst? We have no idea if this is even a possibility…
Why not just call the admissions office and ask? You may not get an answer, but it can’t hurt to try.
