Northwestern Waitlist Class of 2024

@waitlistgirl123 - I uploaded everything via portal. Sent an email after May 1st to confirm they got all my documents (I listed all documents and dates I uploaded them) and reiterated my interest in NU and that I will attend even though I have committed to another place by the deadline.

@fakesnek @SAYSA Thank you guys for the information! When did they tell you that you had to accept the waitlist spot by?

any news on wl movement today?

was it from an unknown number?

does anyone think we will get some news today/this weekend?

I’m really not sure… has anyone called them recently?

i called them (very awkward phone call haha) and they said they are continuing to make decisions “consistently,” not really sure what that means though

My son was asked to respond in 24 hours by phone or email (he called and accepted) - maybe they are working through the list real-time and considering candidates as responses are received?

@NefiSF Thanks for your reply! I am anticipating that they will pull more after the weekend then if needed.

Around what time did they call?

Also those that got off the waitlist- what were your majors?

I only got 24 hours to accept. I applied CS in Weinberg. However, my portal has not changed. I was told it takes a few days for that to happen.

Is anyone getting off the waitlist from the Northeast region? D is waitlisted … haven’t heard back yet…

Does anyone else know any other individuals who have been accepted off the waitlist besides the six people in this thread?

anyone receive any waitlist news lately??

Do people think the waitlist is closed?

someone on reddit called and it’s still open until the end of june. any predictions as to when the next wave is?

@dinosaurgeek23 I have no idea at this point. I was anticipating that more calls were going to be made after Wednesday last week but none were. It is possible they do not need to pull more off or possible they will need to make more calls in the coming weeks. Seems like a waiting game at this point which is quite unfortunate considering NU is my dream school.

FWIW, two kids from my son’s school got in off the WL last week. Total NWU admits this year: 3.

what state are these students from? just wondering as i am from the midwest and haven’t heard anything yet. thank you!
