Is there any thread on here or website that has waitlist stats? Or do I have to call?
If you look in the common data set for Oberlin it lists the wait list as of 2015-2016 admitted students and what percentage were admitted off the wait list. Google Oberlin common data set.
I found the common data set, and it seems like my already slim chances of getting into the school in the first place are compounded by the fact that the admit rate for last year’s freshmen accepting a place on the waitlist was approx. 18.7%. Now that’s not bad really, but I doubt that I’ll end up in the Class of 2020.
That’s better than I expected…I wouldn’t count yourself out quite yet!
My D was just emailed this afternoon to get off the WL, with a small scholarship. If anyone is hoping, don’t give up just yet, becasue my D isn’t going to accept the place. Well, at least I highly doubt it.
Does anyone know when the last wave of waitlist acceptances go out?
My D got the email offer yesterday!
If anyone is still hoping, my S got an email offer yesterday with a very generous aid offer. He won’t accept, but the offers are still coming!
