So, we're waitlisted... now what?!

<p>I'm feeling confused/a little helpless. You get waitlisted to a school, and then what? You just sit back and wait for them to make a decision? Is there anything you can do besides wait?!
This is awful. My heart goes out to everyone else who got waitlisted- I can empathize!</p>

<p>Ok. I was waitlisted at 3/5 schools! Guess how bad i feel =/</p>

<p>so far, I have been waitlisted by THREE schools! ugh. :( </p>

<p>if anyone has any experiences or words of wisdom, please share it with us. thanks!</p>

<p>I have been waitlisted by SPS and Groton so far. I am really sad about SPS, because it was my close 2nd choice. Hopefully Hotchkiss comes through for me! But whatever happens, I have Exeter and Middlesex, and I'm still waiting on Deerfield. </p>

<p>My mom has this theory that said schools waitlisted me BECAUSE of my acceptance to Exeter, but I'm unsure. That would be the dumbest thing ever since Exeter was not my first choice (I would be very happy to go, though!). I definitely do not want to think that way.</p>

<p>I'm glad I didn't receive a flat-out rejection, but it would've given me the sanity of mind knowing that it wasn't for a stupid reason like that.</p>

<p>Anywho...I am proud of my Exeter and Middlesex acceptances!</p>
