<p>Congrats waitin89! Are you def going to BC?</p>
<p>Do you guys think there is a possibility that after May 25, BC will again look at the WL?</p>
<p>ya im def goin! im pumped, a chance if ppl turn it down they might go back</p>
<p>couldnt it be that they're sending out acceptances from the WL in waves and that they're giving out different reply dates? or does the 5/25 deadline mean that they're done taking kids from the WL?
i hate waiting :(</p>
<p>just spoke with BC admissions again. They said that 75 ppl were accepted last Friday off of the WL and have until this Friday to notify the college of their decision. The remainder of the WL is in a "holding category" and will hear a final answer within the next two weeks. </p>
<p>Basically, if you weren't accepted like me, you have to pray that the majority of the 75 kids do not accept.</p>
<p>so Carnegie - does that mean that you and I were basically (100% for sure) not accepted?
I guess there's no more reason for me to run to my mailbox every afternoon....</p>
<p>at the moment probably yes, but if ppl don't accept we still have a chance. </p>
<p>Full court blitz them. Make sure BC knows you want to go.</p>
<p>I am half tempted to drive 5 hours to BC to talk to the adcoms!</p>
<p>anyone hear anything new?</p>
<p>omg im dying. why is the wait so long??! i'd much rather get my rejection letter now to stop my anxiety arghhhhhhhh</p>
<p>yeah i feel the same way.</p>
<p>anyone hear any news yet?</p>
<p>ahhh i wish! since it's memorial day weekend and the first batch had 'til yesterday to reply i bet those of us who are still waiting won't hear anything from wednesday at the earliest since monday's a holiday and tuesday would probably be teh earliest that they would look at it again. hopefully before the end of next week though.. i'm graduating on friday and it'll suck not knowing for sure. i'm prepared to deal with that possibility though</p>
<p>bc told me end of the week they were shooting for.</p>
<p>I really want to know the yield of the kids that were accepted.</p>
<p>i feel like the admissions simply accepted kids who were from the boston area or those with legacy... which i feel like is so unfair.. because i feel like i wasn't given a chance in the first place to get off of the waiting list.
guess i just gotta suck it up</p>
<p>Flyaway, there is still a chance that you and I for that matter may get in. </p>
<p>But I agree, this is going to be tough to suck up. I really wanted to go to BC!</p>
<p>Don't lose hope. The son of a friend of ours got in off the waitlist yesterday (Saturday). Southern California, no legacy.</p>
<p>That's very encouraging sdmom. Thanks for sharing.</p>
<p>Thanks sdmom.</p>
<p>I really hope we all get in!</p>
<p>Me too - I'm keeping good thoughts!</p>
<p>I have been following this thread and am rooting for all you waitlisted students too!!! Don't let this waitlist episode of your life define or consume you, everything works out for a reason. Good luck to all</p>
<p>Thanks so much sdmom and goingtobebroke (lol) .
you guys are so very encouraging.</p>
