Northwestern Waitlist Class of 2024

@hellocello01 congrats! How were you notified?

@fakesnek the cello teacher at Northwestern emailed me first with a heads up that I would be getting a call, and then my regional admissions officer called me a day later and let me know.

has anyone else heard back yet? and congrats!

Did anyone get an email on it around April 15th to confirm place on waitlist?

yep!

Does anyone have any guesses for when waitlist decisions will start to come out? It looked like on past forms it was the first Monday in May, but it doesn’t look like anyone heard yesterday. Is that correct?

@college12234 I haven’t seen any news on this forum or reddit regarding the Northwestern waitlist, so I think you are correct. Maybe they will start making calls today


I am getting so nervous! Son would do anything to get off northwestern/washu/chicago wait list

My son is on the NU’s waitlist and we did not hear anything yet! He is very anxious.

to the ppl who got off the waitlist - did the caller ID say like “northwestern admissions” or was it a random number? (since ppl are working from home I was curious and also I don’t answer random numbers lol)

Did anyone get off the waitlist for engineering yet?

I don’t think anyone has heard back yet! When I called yesterday they said they are still assessing available room before they start taking people off of the WL. I hope we find out soon!

@dinosaurgeek23 bummer!! Did they give any sort of indication as to when that might be or were they vague?

they were pretty vague, so hopefully that means something will happen soon!

@dinosaurgeek23 I also called yesterday and they told me that they can start announcing any time between now and the end of June, so I also hope that means soon!

i’m hoping we find out this week nu is my dream school!

I GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!!

Are you serious? Congrats! What did they say on the call?

@fakesnek Did they call? What did they say?

Just got off the waitlist! SOOO excited!
