<p>Yes, if BC sends you an acceptance letter after you have been waitlisted, they will give you xx days to respond. You can accept or deny at that point.</p>
<p>I second this sentiment. If BC is your 1st choice and you would absolutely accept a spot, TELL THEM! I did this last year and came off the wait list 10 days later (not saying they are connected events but still…). </p>
<p>I also contacted the alumni rep in my area (had been in contact with him before) to tell him the same thing " Just to let you know, if I am offered a spot, I will accept it then and there."</p>
<p>Full disclosure: I did not need financial aid, and also shared that fact. Not trying to start any sort of massive discussion on that, but if that is your situation, consider letting them now. I accepted my spot within an hour of the agora tab appearing (the one I had not seen previously).</p>
<p>Best of luck to everyone- I love BC!</p>
