How to get off the waitlist

<p>With a 3.92 GPA, very good extracurriculars, good reccomendations, and an excellent essay, I was really confused why I was not accepted to VU.</p>

<p>Does anybody know what to do to increase the chances of getting off the waitlist?</p>

<p>a friend of mine with sub-par grades got in by writing letters I believe. show and interest and hope i guess</p>

<p>Most likely, do something to really show that's your school. Preferably, something over-the-top.</p>
