<p>My D got accepted as an Alternate for one of the NSLIY-Y summer programs. Since the application was submitted several months ago, many things have happened since then that we would like to inform NSLI-Y about (starting a language course, being selected into a prestigious program at school, etc). Is it possible to update NSLI-Y about this with the hope that it will help her chances of becoming selected? Or do they only recognize information that was submitted at the time of application?</p>
<p>I do realize that switching from the waitlisted Alternate status to the confirmed status depends on the availability of a slot. Right now we do know that one of the confirmed students has sent an apology and withdrew. There are 10 Alternate students, how do they determine which one of the 10 will take that spot?</p>
