Discussion thread for waitlisted applicants

Waitlisted

Waitlisted as well

same. pretty bummed. the fact that we have to wait another two months is just ridiculous

Waitlisted CSOM

waitlisted

Unfortunately only 2-10% of us will be taken off the waitlist

Hi guys, I was waitlisted as well… Is this good? How competitive was the pool anyways? Does this mean I shouldn’t expect getting in to NYU, USC, Penn, Cornell, or Berkeley? Also, I am International if that counts for anything

I actually thought I was getting into BC, so I’m pretty scared that I might not get into any of my other reach schools.

Btw, please post results on the results thread…

waitlisted for nursing after getting deferred to regular decision :frowning: really sad because BC is my #1 choice

I see heavy affirmative action

Seems like a lot of qualified people got waitlisted

applied early and got deferred. now i’m here :frowning:

but there are other colleges that need our response /by/ may 1st. how are we supposed to stay on the waitlist then?

@sungjong that’s my question too! Could we withdraw from a college even after we declared we are gonna go there?

@BureaCat Yeah, I was thinking that because it’s not ED we can withdraw, but then we lose our deposit. I’m not sure, though, but that’s my guess ://

@BureaCat yup, thats right. paying the deposit isn’t like a legally binding thing like ED, but you wont be refunded for the deposit you paid for if you decide to attend somewhere else

@sungjong thanks!! @collegeeeeee thanks too!! Btw, I had to count how many Es you have in ur ID lol
