<p>Anyone? I am.</p>
<p>me too…the waiting is torture</p>
<p>yay lol 2 people on waitlist!</p>
<p>i’m on it too. has anyone heard from the bowdoin waitlist yet?</p>
<p>i’m also on it. Haven’t heard anything yet!</p>
<p>Do you think many people will be taken off the waitlist?</p>
<p>Nice to see fellow waitlisted applicants! Xylem888, honestly I do not think many people will be taken off this year… Who knows.</p>
<p>[Bowdoin</a> is unlikely to go to the wait list this year](<a href=“http://orient.bowdoin.edu/orient/article.php?date=2010-05-07§ion=1&id=6]Bowdoin”>http://orient.bowdoin.edu/orient/article.php?date=2010-05-07§ion=1&id=6). Its yield was high and it overshot its target numbers by quite a bit in terms of enrollees.</p>
<p>Wow! That was a nice glass of ice water in the face. I guess that closes this thread. D will probably go to Northwestern.</p>
<p>D rec’d a letter today officially notifying her that she wld not be taken from the WL. We had forgotten that we had not yet rec’d an official notice although the absence of available spots was well known in early May. D will attend Northwestern but is happy to have been at least waitlisted from Bowdoin.</p>
<p>Is anyone else still waiting to hear back from Bowdoin about a waitlist position? I was asked to stay on their waitlist until July, and it’s July, so I’m getting pretty antsy…</p>
<p>I think way more people accepted than Bowdoin admissions anticipated and it would be very unlikely that they could go to the waitlist. The dorm my daughter was assigned to was supposed to have been all doubles but she and several others are in the same sized rooms made into triples and if you look on the link above a couple of people are freaking out that they were put in quints when the rooms were supposed to be for four people!</p>
<p>Several weeks ago, Bowdoin reported that its yield exceeded expectations - 520 accepted offers of admission for class that was supposed to be about 485. Last I heard, the number had shrunk a bit–to 515–but that Bowdoin was hoping to lose a few more over the summer to deferrals and acceptances off wait lists at other schools. I don’t know what the latest numbers are but reaching the wait list seems not to be in the cards this year . . Still, you should call to make sure if you have an interest in going to Bowdoin.</p>
