My DD is awaiting outreach regarding an opportunity to be accepted off the RD waitlist. Has anyone been contacted or will the earliest be next week.
I’ve no idea on where there are with the process, but as an alum interviewer who has had a couple of candidates get in off the waitlist over the years, I’d be having your daughter reach out to Midd, making it clear that she’s very keen and that Midd is her overwhelming first choice, and that she’d move heaven and earth to come; (obviously if she has new scores or something interesting that wasn’t in her packet then she should add that, too.) She should also reach out to whoever interviewed her and see if there’ll write a note to Midd on her behalf - I’ve only done that a couple of times, but it can only help.

@“Contented Panther”. thx as yes she has sent a strong letter of enthusiasm to both admissions, as well as her regional admissions dean that she met at her HS - she waffled between Brown and Middlebury for ED and in hindsight thinks Middlebury is the better fit, but as she was Deferred at Brown she needed to see that process through to the end.
DD had a great conversation with the Middlebury alumni interviewer as her kids went to the same HS; do you think it’s too late to ask her if she would send a note on my DD’s behalf?
It is never too late to reach out, especially if you can get the message to Midd that she is keen and committed. Where is she giving up a place to go to Midd? Nothing wrong with appealing to collective ego…!
Best of luck!

@“Contented Panther”, not giving up a place just yet as she’s got another great choice with her admittance to Hamilton!
That’s great - good luck.

Does anyone know when they start reaching out to the waitlist - May 2nd?
Anyone hearing any news?

Does this mean that your daughter did not get accepted off the waitlist?
No, just was deleting a message. Still waiting to hear something like everyone else.
Checking in to see if anyone has gotten off of waitlist or heard whether they are going to waitlist this year
Crickets still?? Anyone hear anything about timing of pulling off waitlist or closing out?
Haven’t heard anything.
Fingers crossed. Where headed otherwise?
My daughter is going to Northeastern and is very excited. Good luck to you!
Congrats! We have twin DD’s headed to Hamilton, with one on Middlebury waitlist.
My friend just got off from Middlebury’s waitlist today. I guess they’re starting to go to it.
Anyone else hearing anything - hopefully it’s more than one slot…
Hey, just offering some info, I made an account just to say this:
I was accepted off the waitlist for co2021. I’m not comfortable posting stats publicly, but I am comfortable talking about anything (stats or even just how the process went) if you want to message me privately.
Just letting you know it is more than 1 slot @Chembiodad , maybe that offers some hope
