Appeal BU-waitlist

<p>waitlisted:</p>

<p>4.2, 1440/1600, 2100/2400, great EC’s, great essays, great teacher recs.</p>

<p>I didn’t get in anywhere, so I need to appeal BU. </p>

<p>Do I have a chance? How many people were taken off the waitlist last year? How many were waitlisted last year?</p>

<p>where did you apply?</p>

<p>I think these numbers are from last year:</p>

<p>1,734 waitlisted and 3% were admitted from the waitlist</p>

<p>I saw something from BU that said they admitted 9 people from the waitlist. It was either from last year or the year before.</p>

<p>I'm not going to Boston U, so you can take my spot. Good luck!</p>

<p>I talked to someone at the admissions office today, she said in the past two years nobody has been admitted off the waitlist. This year it doesn't seem like the school got any less popular.</p>

<p>Why does BU waitlist some applicants and put some in CGS if they don't "meet standards" (not meaning to offend anyone and i'm sorry if i do)</p>

<p>And this whole Tufts syndrome thing is ridiculous because it leads to situations like this.</p>

<p>I don't understand any college's selection process. None of them make any sense.</p>

<p>hey i'll give u my seat at BU or washu. I'm definitely going to columbia. But i am really sorry to hear that. College really isn't the end, it's onyl a beginning. Btw, what schools were u waitlisted at?</p>
