<p>I got waitlisted, along with A LOT of people i know. So I'm wondering exactly how many people get on the waitlist? And how many of those are eventually admitted?</p>
<p>Basically, what are my chances now? slim?</p>
<p>keep hope, almost everyone stands an equal chance...slim if you count the probability...but not much lesser the odds you require to get on a waitlist ...cheer up!</p>
<p>Yea I was waitlisted too and I see on CC that a lot of people are waitlisted. Whats the usual percentage of people getting accepted from the waitlist?</p>
<p>I would really like to know how many people they normally waitlist. I'm actually kind of excited that I wasn't outright rejected :)</p>
<p>i feel the same!!! atleast they kept our hearts :)</p>
<p>exactly....</p>
<p>harvard waitlisted half of my school....</p>
<p>Chances are always slim at Harvard. Heh.</p>
<p>I was waitlisted too, and I had been willing to bet my life on a rejection, so... I guess I'm not terribly unhappy.</p>
<p>I got waitlisted by Harvard, but I don't think I will stay on the list. I<3 Dartmouth. Anyway, that's one person off the list, more chances for u guys!</p>
<p>Yeah! OK, now all I need to happen is for everyone else to decide not to stay on the list...</p>

<p>Waitlisting sucks.</p>
<p>Harvard, Yale, AND Penn of all things.</p>
<p>So now the question is,</p>
<p>To stay waitlisted, or not to stay waitlisted,</p>
<p>and </p>
<p>Duke vs. Dartmouth?</p>
<p>Hi guys! G'luck to everyone who's waitlisted. I got waitlisted somewhere else so I just wanna ask what do you do to increase your chance apart from updating your last semester's grades?? Thanks a lot for any inputs.</p>
<p>I'm waitlisted too. The funny thing is, I think that the new FinAid package has a lot to do with the changes in the admissions process. In other words, a lot of us may have been accepted in previous years (people on CC are a strong buch of applicants). Good luck to those who will stay on the waitlist (I know I will). :) Keep your hopes up guys (and gals <em>sigh</em>).</p>
<p>i personally know 4 harvard acceptees. 3 are turning down harvard for duke/washu/columbia...hahaha, this 25% yield is hilarious.</p>
<p>i seriously hope harvard has an overall 25% yield this year....that's about the only way i'll ever get off the WL.</p>
<p>same here.. sigh.. I AM REALLY TIRED OF WAITING! well, still thinking what to do though... so r u guys staying as "active candidates"?</p>
<p>I'd expect to see 30-40 taken off the waitlist eventually.</p>
