@APzack The waitlist isn’t ranked – in early May, when they know how many people they can admit from the waitlist, they will have another meeting and consider all the waitlisted applications again.
It’s to your advantage, if you’re waitlisted, to keep MIT up to speed on awards, achievements, etc. between now and then.
congrats to all those who got in!!
