<p>Hey CCers! I noticed that Caltech didn't have an official waitlist thread like other top universities do, so I decided to make one :) Anyways, please comment below if you've been waitlisted, have been accepted off the waitlist, or received some information about the waitlist from the admissions office. I myself was waitlisted and hope that some of you have some more information about what is going on. Some general questions that some of you might be able to answer:</p>
<p>-How many students were waitlisted this year? (Official number, not speculation)
-How many students have been accepted off the waitlist in past years?
-Has anyone received word back from the office yet, either acceptance off the waitlist or rejection? What exactly did they tell you?
-When is the final date that we'll hear back from the admissions office?</p>
<p>Thanks for sharing and contributing to this forum!</p>
This has been the case with a lot of top/Ivy league universities this year, so I hope you all got accepted to at least one school you’re excited about attending. Best of luck in the future!</p>
