<p>to tell the truth, i'm crying right now.</p>
<p>this was my last chance.</p>
<p>but i guess it didn't work out. </p>
<p>just one thing, should i completely lose all hope and not set myself up for this situation, or is there still a faint glimmer of hope? is this it?</p>
<p>My guess is that it is a gradual process of admissions, they admit people as they are evaluated. The rejectees will be notified im sure once admissions are over.</p>
<p>It is all about luck at this point 
GOOD LUCK!!</p>
<p>i just posted this in another thread but the statement that appears on the online decision site,</p>
<p>“Applicants on the Waiting List will be sent an email notifying them to check this Online Decisions site when their status on the Waiting List changes.”</p>
<p>coupled with Furda’s statement that all waitlist activity will be completed by graduation seems to indicate that all waitlisted students will receive notification of either acceptance or rejection… this is assuming that one cannot remain on the waiting list indefinitely.</p>
<p>i’ve heard of cases when students have heard the week before classes start that they were accepted off the waitlist…</p>
<p>I imagine certain regions are evaluated separately. I know that my rep (upstate NY) is going to be across the country (TX) all week. So I doubt she even had a chance to look over any of our applications with the admissions staff. I also know another rep will be away until the 26th. So hopefully well know more by tomorrow.</p>
<p>Economosn is right. The waitlist is evaluated by regions, just to keep with the demographics of admissions. I have a friend who was waitlisted, and recently notified by our regional rep, that admissions will start to look at Canadian waitlistees this week. Don’t lose all hope!</p>
<p>Yes, plus nothing is definitive until tomorrow. So keep hoping.</p>
<p>where did you see that stuff kimmy?</p>
<p>Mh475- from a past post of yours, it looks like you are going to Columbia. No need to cry!! It’s an amazing school and I know <em>at least</em> one of my friends at Penn who would have gone there but didn’t get in!!!</p>
<p>i didnt get into columbia! what post are you talking about?!</p>
<p>i’m going to BC if not here</p>
<p>“The inability to open up to hope is what blocks trust, and blocked trust is the reason for blighted dreams.”</p>
<p>Just keep hoping guys and it will pay off - i just thought this quote was appropriate fr this thread - my teacher showed it to me :)</p>
