My son learned last night via email that he has transitioned from “Hold” status to Wait List. According to most recent year disclosed by College Board, Temple offered 2,935 wait list spots, 444 applicants accepted the spot and of those 193 were ultimately accepted by Temple. Not the greatest odds, but better than some schools that don’t get to the wait list.
He did accept the wait list slot since Temple remains his first choice. He attends a good NJ school, 3.5 GPA and 1130 SAT. Borderline for sure, so wait list is not too surprising. He does have other options and will need to proceed deciding which school with the assumption an offer from Temple will not come through.
For those in the same position, good luck!
