@clvmsy Second semester grades are definitely extremely important. For wait-listed students, they are looking to pull from the most qualified of the bunch and any significant changes like second semester grades (as well as any updates you send them) can be the tipping factor. Generally wait-listed students are those that had what it takes, but maybe there were one or two factors that they were uncertain about. Showing a strong second semester performance or significant accomplishments since then can be a real changing factor.
