Does Rice waitlist a large number of students?

<p>It's unfortunately that they waitlisted so many qualified people from Texas... I hope you guys have a shot at getting off the waitlist.</p>

I think Rice's yield will continue to move up.

<p>I hope so but honestly it's so hard to tell because it seems like sooo many people are turning it down for economic reasons. It's unfortunate.</p>

<p>They waitlisted so many from tx because so many applied from tx. I dont buy into the whole "its much harder to get in from tx". my school had somewhere around 12 admits and just a few waitlisted</p>

<p>Are you sure 700 people got waitlisted last year? that seems alot o_o
I'll call Rice tomorrow.</p>

<p>Anyone know how you will tackle the waitlist question of "continuing interest in Rice"?</p>

<p>is rice need blind for taking students off waitlist?</p>

<p>yes. ten char.</p>

<p>I was waitlisted too…who knows what will happen…</p>

<p>Those of you talking about 700 waitlisted students last year, where did you get that number? I’d be interested to know how many of those students were on the “priority” waitlist.</p>
