Yes. I’ve been waitlisted by RPI…
Has anyone (do you know anyone) who got waitlisted by RPI but then got accepted off the waitlist? Please let me know how they did it and if Financial Aid changes or not etc. I really want to go to RPI, it’s one of my top 3 schools…
Also, are they more likely to accept girls instead of guys off the waitlist just for the sake of that ridiculously off balanced gender ratio?
FA changes? If you are on the waitlist and got FA info, I seriously doubt the FA offer would change if they offered you a spot.
Also, you may note from other threads that there are students who applied for fall 2015 and were only admitted for January 2016. It is quite possible that you might be admitted January 2016 if you are accepted - be prepared.
It is possible they would accept girls off the waitlist quicker, but it may also depend on the major moreso - like if they get a lot of ChemEs who decide not to go to RPI, they might take ChemEs off the waitlist instead of other majors.
