Rejected UCLA and Cal, but waitlisted Stanford?

<p>What are the odds of that?</p>

<p>I really don't know what to do/think.
I had gotten over UCLA and Cal, and was content with San Diego, and just had to check my Stanford app. to make sure my rejection was official.
But I'm waitlisted?
eh??</p>

<p>Things would be easier if I was just rejected, because NOW there's still hope.</p>

<p>I need some insight
I am at a loss</p>

<p>I'd consider the Stanford waitlist as a rejection...last year about 15 got off the WL out of hundreds. This year, because Stanford was so popular, the metriculation should climb.</p>

<p>i'll take a wild guess that you are a URM </p>

<p>last year, a URM from my school got into Harvard/Stanford and got rejected from UCLA and UC Berkeley</p>

<p>people shouldn't buy the crap that AA is only a minor plus</p>

<p>haha ya i got waitlisted and i'm a URM
rejected from UCLA and Berkeley
USC is my number one and i haven't heard from them yet
I want to go into film, so basically the only reason I applied to Stanford is cause my dad is an alum, i thought i was going to be flat out rejected lol</p>
