<p>Anyone have any info on this:</p>
<p>I am apparently of a select group of students who will stay on the waiting list until early July. I called them and they said that their yield was so high that they already rejected hundreds. Anyone else have this? How small of a group? What are the odds from here?</p>
<p>Well, now it's all a matter of how many spots will open up in the next few months. Your credentials are good enough that you're still on the list, which means that you would probably have been accepted if there were more spots. Now it depends entirely on how many slots open up, which, I'm afraid to say, may not be any at all.</p>
<p>i'm guessing the chances of getting off the second are the same as the chances of getting off the first (really small!). We'll have to wait for kids accepted to Stanford to switch to other schools or something. It seems kinda unlikely. Anyways, I'm in the same boat as you. there can't be too many of us.</p>
<p>Well, the only way for spots to open up would be if Stanford kids got off the waitlists at other comparable colleges, such as HYPM. Unfortunately, those schools have high yields this year, so I doubt that they'll even go to the waitlists.</p>
<p>How many people are in this group?</p>
<p>I posted this query on a different wait-list thread, but it seems more appropriate here:</p>
<p>Did you submit supplemental materials (recommendations, letters, awards etc) when you were initially wait-listed, or did you just return the reply card?</p>
<p>It seems that a high proportion of CCers who have been posting on the waiting-list threads are included in the select group who will stay on the waiting list until July. Im curious whether doing more than just returning the reply card seems to be a factor.</p>
