<p>I got in but my friend was waitlisted. Do many people get off the waitlist?</p>
<p>i got the letter today, they took about 180 kids off the wait list last year…the question is, how many will be on the wait list</p>
<p>According to some article, Penn let in a third of the waitlist, so there must’ve been about 540. Who knows how many are on this year, though.</p>
<p>yeah, do they release the number of wait listed applicants?</p>
<p>bumping this up haha</p>
<p>“In recent years, the Penn admission office has also waitlisted comparatively fewer students than Princeton. Last year, about 1,000 Penn applicants were waitlisted, one-quarter of the number of students accepted, according to The Daily Pennsylvanian. The Penn admission office declined to release the size of this year’s waitlist.”</p>

<p>wow, admissions must be pretty insecure to not release the number of waitlistees</p>
