If you’ve been placed on a wait list, how long will it be until the college, say an ivy, notifies you that you’ve been accepted off the wait list? Is it sometime in June, or does it vary from person to person?
It tends to vary, but you probably won’t hear anything before May 1st.
May 1st is the day that students are supposed to tell colleges where they are going. If there are still spots open, they will go to the wait list. Meanwhile start getting happy with the colleges you got into.
Google “common data set” and the college and open tthe file and search for waiting list to see how many people are accepted off the wait list.
