Thought I’d start a forum for those of us who were waitlisted this year
waitlisted for ftv production ?
same here! sucks we have to wait till after may 1st ughhh
Waitlisted for health science 
My son got put on the waitlist for business major. Super disappointed! I wonder if there is a way to find out where you are on the waitlist. I assume not…
is it the sooner you apply to be on the waitlist, the higher chance you’ll get in?
I don’t think so…I’m going to send them an email and ask
Information from email about waitlist ranking, when we’ll hear back, and financial aid for those of us who are waitlisted:
There is no ranking or order on the waitlist. On May 1st depending on how many students decide to commit, LMU will reassess the capacity for all majors and from there decide how many or if no students can be admitted. Decisions will be released once they determine this (after May 1). If there is space, the financial aid office will reassess their budget and try to offer merit and need-based financial aid packages to those admitted students.
I read from last year’s lmu waitlist post that Fall 2017, 2k something people were in the waitlist and only 7 were admitted. The chances of getting in must be pretty slim.
Has anyone heard about the size of the waitlist for Fall of 2019?
Now that your said that about only 7 I’m just da scared … I have no other school I want to go to .
We should know any day now, anyone as nervous as me? Pretty much the only thing I can think about is this decision. Hoping the best for everyone!
So I know that admissions look at various factors for waitlist admission (specifically with interest) but does anyone have a concrete list of what some of those factors are?
Haven’t heard anything about the size of the waitlist, pretty sure that information was not disclosed.
Just heard back from one of the admissions counselors:
“Thank you for reaching out and for your continued interest in LMU. As of May 1, our entering freshman class is very near capacity. We are currently analyzing our numbers to determine whether a few spots may still be available in certain academic areas, but any waitlist activity will be minimal. If we do admit any additional students, we will reach out individually as soon as possible. Please let me know if you have further questions.”
Seems like our odds are very low … but I wish you all the best! Stay hopeful!
Has anyone heard back yet?
Apparently, decisions could be released as late as the summer, or not at all? Which confuses me because I was under the impression that everyone would get a notice whether accepted or not. Regardless, this isn’t fun.
Has anyone heard back yet?
Decisions came out, at least some.
did anybody get in?
