Class of 2017 Wait Listed

<p>No later than June 1st I think, it is only fair as you must have a 2nd choice deposited by Wed May 1st so you have a back up, and now the 2nd choice will want orientation deposits and roommate info, so after June 1st it is just too difficult to keep hanging on. In Ga there are numerous programs you can do to transfer into Tech, so life is not over! Just focus and realize that YOU can and WILL get your Tech degree if you start down the path, it may just be a different route!</p>

<p>When are they releasing the number of deposit they got?</p>

<p>has anyone been accepted yet?</p>

<p>Here is an excerpts from the e-mail reply they sent me:</p>

<p>“We will be spending out wait list decisions no earlier than next week until June 1st.” (Emily,2013)</p>

<p>I am guesssing that spending is just a typo for sending. I’m also guessing that the reason why they would start sending the offers next week is because they are using the time from May 1 'till now to assess the waitlist applicants.</p>

<p>I was accepted from the wait list. I have until monday to accept their offer. they told me financial aid is “limited” and that i’d have 2 days to pay my deposit and housing fee after they update my records.</p>

<p>looking at everyone else’s stats, i guess im a lucky duck</p>

<p>lol aaypea when were you accepted</p>

<p>yesterday afternoon</p>

<p>Nice, congratulations hope you do well</p>

<p>I did not apply to GT, but I am just curious what did you send/demonstrate to admissions to get you off the waitlist? I was waitlisted at 6, yes 6!, of my top choices including Nova Business (#1), Colgate, Lehigh, ETC. Sent lots of letters, had counselor call, prinicipal called and wrote a letter for me, went to go meet reps in person, sent 3rd MP grades, which were a 4.0</p>

<p>Anxiously awaiting at LEAST 1 call from an admissions office next week. Can anyone else share what they have done? I feel that I was just on the borderline for those schools and that I deserve at least 1 call with a 2100~ SAT score and lots of hard classes and interest.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i didnt send anything. GT specifically said that they didnt want any recommendation letters. there was a short essay for their wait list supplement though. So I can only assume that was my deciding factor. You need to show that you really want to go to that school. other than that, i think you have a fantastic chance at getting off the wait list. good luck</p>

<p>Hello aaypea,
Were you offered your first choice major?
What was the major?
Congratulation and good luck with all.</p>

<p>Anyone else got their acceptance?
I wish they release the number of deposited freshman this year so that we can at least be prepared for the result haha</p>

<p>yes. it is currently chemistry</p>

<p>all GT people… please keep the faith…</p>

<p>Today I was accepted into Union College with 17K and my first choice, Lafayette College in Easton, PA!!! These were the two which I did the least (sent two letters to each, with a few recs). Still waiting on Colgate and Villanova, but am perfectly happy. If you apply yourself and demonstrate in interest on the wait list, they will accept you. In fact, Lafayette emailed me to CALL THEM to discuss my “position on the wait list”. I did and they offered me a spot…</p>

<p>DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!</p>

<p>Do you know if they will let you know if you did not make the list? I hve been emailin and calling my advisor for a month now to update her on my grades and salutatoria status and she never calls back or emails? Any suggestions? has anyone else heard from Tech?</p>

<p>I talked with my college counselor, and he said that GT wont be going to their waitlist this year…but then again aapeya clearly got in so I dont know what to think…:(</p>

<p>Really? I saw a tweet from GT admission that said they are going to admit 80~100 people this year. That’s like 4% chance but… my fingers are crossed</p>

<p>ah, I just saw it…made my day so much brighter thank you :D</p>

<p>also if anyone else has received an acceptance call PLEASE inform us what they said, and when they called…we are all anxiously waiting a response!</p>

<p>i got accepted from waitlist couple of days ago.i’m out of state and i don’t really have high sat and other stuff compare to the others… i guess they are accepting girls more to balance the ratio so i’m lucky. so good luck guys~</p>
