<p>Does anyone know approximately how large the waitlist is at Colby, and how many students they usually take off it?</p>
<p>Any info would be much appreciated.</p>
<p>no, I don’t know – i think for most colleges it’s about 10%, but I know that this year everything will be thrown off because of the economic situation – colleges are waitlisting a lot more kids because they are having a hard time determining how many people will actually attend.</p>

<p>This might be helpful on what to do next if you’re on the waitlist.</p>
