<p>My D is on the wait list for Brown this year. Anyone get in from the list in the past? What are her chances?</p>
<p>cbyrne: Unfortunately, there is no way anyone can answer your question now. It all depends on how many students accept their offers of admission, and that number varies every year. Some years dozens of students are accepted, other years none. </p>
<p>And there is no priority ranking of the waitlist – students are taken off the waitlist to fill holes. So if no oboist accepted, they will take an oboe player. No one from South Dakota? They’ll take a South Dakotan. </p>
<p>Unfortunately, she’ll just have to wait and see – there won’t be any news at all until after May 1. Last year, there were at least two rounds of kids taken off the waitlist.</p>
<p>brown takes an extremely select few off there waitlist with tons of ppl on it… bad odds</p>
<p>im on the wait list too</p>
