<p>Well, it's only the 16th today, so maybe if you reply and include a letter explaining the situation, they may still consider you.</p>
<p>yeah i called them and will send an email soon... but i don't think it makes a difference... they haven't accepted any of the roughly 20 summer waitlistees and they doubt they will in the end. even as of now the number of deposits still exceeds the class quota... so HYP has to snatch a number of Amherst students away before I am even considered again. but i guess HYP's waiting list activity should have ended by now...</p>
