Elon University Wait List

<p>My daughter was wait listed at Elon. Realistically, what are her chances of being moved off the wait list and being admitted? This is her top school choice!</p>

<p>Please, if you know anything about Elon’s wait list history let me know what you think!</p>

<p>Let them know…especially your state admissions rep…that she will attend if accepted…</p>

<p>Good luck! Did she apply RD or EA and was waitlisted after a deferral?</p>

<p>She actually applied RD late so I feel that being wait listed is lucky in and of itself. We visited the school and she left there hoping that she would be admitted, she was very impressed with the campus as well as everything the school has to offer her.</p>

<p>She definitely needs to contact her rep and let him/her know…what state are you from? The only reason I ask is because if you are from an over-represented one at Elon, this may be very difficult…</p>

<p>If you look up Elon’s common data set, it will give you waitlist history…google will help…</p>

<p>We are from Virginia.</p>

<p>^^mass, md, nc, nj…those are the tough ones…</p>

<p>va, not so much…good luck!</p>

<p>Wow, only 10% of the waitlisted students from the 2010-2011 stats (who accepted wait list status) were admitted. Uhhhh… what can we do to up our daughter’s chances of being admitted?</p>

<p>Heavy public relations with your state rep, I imagine…possibly a visit? I think there are a couple of postings from last year of students who were admitted off of the waitlist…</p>

<p>She will contact her state rep by email over the weekend. We just want to maintain a good balance - letting them know how much she wants to attend Elon but not annoying them.</p>

<p>Also wondering, does Elon move off the waitlist immediately upon getting declines from RD’s?</p>

<p>Also wondering, does Elon move off the waitlist immediately upon getting declines from RD’s? In other words, could she hear from Elon in the next week or so that she has been accepted from the wait list?</p>

<p>Rodney, do you know anything about this?</p>

<p>No idea about that…as I mentioned, there are definitely some posts from last year of students who were waitlisted and then accepted…for some reason, I think that, like other schools, waitlist activity does not happen until after May 1st deposit deadline…</p>

<p>Are there any updates on the Elon waitlist? My d has been accepted to other schools but Elon is at the TOP of her list! She has to respond to the others with a deposit by May 1. What do others do in this situation? She has spoken with her rep and was told that she has done everything she needs to do, they just don’t have a notification date at this time. The waiting is killing us!</p>

<p>Has anyone been moved off the waitlist yet?</p>

<p>Has anyone been offered admission off the waitlist yet?</p>
