<p>I'm waitlisted for Dartmouth and UPenn and I'm wondering if anyone has received any info on those schools. My mind is already set for NYU but would change it in a minute for a chance at those schools.</p>
<p>I’m on Dartmouth’s (possible) waitlist. Everything they send me keeps indicating that there either going to have a very small waitlist draw this year or they simply will not have anyone from off the waitlist.</p>
<p>I just got in off the Dartmouth waitlist. Got an email from the Dean and my regional rep.</p>
<p>I found out that I got in yesterday. Good luck!</p>
<p>guys,could any one of you PLEASE post your stats lol
I want to apply to this school next year and i need to set a goal that i can work towards. merci beaucoup!</p>
<p>has anyone who got off the waitlist recieved their acceptance packet yet? They said it was being shipped overnight via UPS express… and I am anxiously waiting!</p>
