<p>I'm now on the waitlist of Wellesley and Wellesley is still on top of my choice. A friend of mine is admitted but will not be going. I wonder if it's a good idea to ask her to nicely decline the offer and somehow recommend me at the second half of the letter. I heard that this worked for some other unis, but I don't know if it will work for Wellesley. Anyone having any suggestions? Many thanks!</p>
