<p>Is it just me, or were there significantly less CC people who applied to Dartmouth RD? I feel like more people applied ED than RD on here! Also, if you look at previous years, there were wayy more people to post their info.</p>
<p>Dear Homie G Doggg who we didnt accept yet,</p>
<p>The Admissions Committee has completed a review of more than 16,000 applications for admission, and we have placed your name on the waiting list. If additional places become available for the Class of 2012, we will review your application immediately. You are encouraged to remain on the waiting list if Dartmouth continues to be of serious interest to you.</p>
<p>In reviewing applications for the first-year class, we faced the difficult task of selecting students for 1,070 available places. The competition among applicants for the waiting list was also very rigorous; each of these students demonstrated qualities that would lead to success and contribution at Dartmouth.</p>
<p>At this time, we do not know if we will be able to use the waiting list; therefore, it is difficult to predict your ultimate chances for admission. I would appreciate hearing from you, as soon as possible, about your college plans. Please visit our Waiting List Reply Form for more information and to reply to our offer of a place on the waiting list. We will try to reach a final decision about your candidacy as soon after May 1st as possible. In the meantime, you should secure a place in another college even if you do decide to wait to hear from us. I hope the next few weeks go well for you.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Maria Laskaris
Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid </p>

<p>Yeah... I just ran a CC "background check", and it looks like he's not a troll. Either it's true, or he has been keeping a consistent lie for a few months... I guess I believe him, for now.</p>
