Hello! This board is devoted to those of us on the waitlist for Syracuse! If you are on the waitlist, please post!
What department are you on the waitlist for? When did you find out you were waitlisted?
Thank you!
Here is the latest information I found on Collegedata.com for last year’s statistics:
Students Offered Wait List 4,996
Students Accepting Wait List Position 1,839
Students Admitted From Wait List 80
Of course, College Board offers different stats! I am not sure which one is correct:
Wait list Statistics
Offered place on wait list 9,023
Number accepting place 2,601
Accepted from list 1,202
Anyone have any insight?

@collegemom38. Sorry about the wait list status. It wasn’t the news we were hoping for either. Did your son apply RD? Would u mind sharing his stats? If u heard info as to when waitlisted applicants could potentially hear back, please share. Thx so much.
@Resnik was your son wait Listed? Mine was 
from there same night as TCNJ wait list. Sucks!
@fingerscrossedinnj yes unfortunately my son was waitlisted to Newhouse. Which school at Syracuse was your son waitlisted to? Sorry about TCNJ. Hope your son is doing ok.
Whitman they end up where they are meant to be right???
My D was waitlisted for musical theater. Out of the 600+ that audition for the program - through prescreens, then on-sight auditions, they pick around 21 for the program. So we were really honored for the waitlist! A lot of people heard the news of the rising cost of Syracuse University, so there are possibilities of spots opening up. Here’s hoping!
@FingerscrossedinNJ that’s what I heard too. But Syracuse is the dream. @Fergie978 I appreciate your positive attitude. Sorry your daughter is in the same boat.
is it too late to apply as a transfer?
@danabanas Technically, SU has a rolling deadline for transfer students. I believe it is open till July. However, depending on your program, you may want to call and ensure there is space. Just make a quick call to the admissions dept. Ask them.
Waitlisted at Whitman on 3/29. If anyone is accepted off a wl, does this usually happen on Fridays, at least as much as RD notification were?
