Does a college e-mail you back your rejection? Or do they not notify you later? I got waitlisted from Fairfield University, and just want to know.
It depends…sometimes colleges know they won’t take anyone more off the WL and might send a rejection.
Typically a college will inform people on the waitlist when it has been closed. Some colleges keep a waitlist open well into the summer. To get the definitive answer for a particular school you need to check directly with that college’s admission office.
