The Waitlist Thread

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>I wanted to see, out of the people who were waitlisted, how many are staying on the list/choosing not to, and what schools you all applied to. I applied to the College and basically just want to know if I have any prayer of getting in haha. Thanks for your replies!</p>

<p>I applied to the College, too. I was actually surprised that I got waitlisted (I expected rejection). </p>

<p>Accepted:
Cal State Long Beach
Cal Poly San Luis Obispo
UCI (Honors Program)
UCSD
UCLA (Honors Program)
USC (Thematic Option Honors Program and possibly Freshman Science Honors)</p>

<p>Waitlisted:
Georgetown College (definitely going to be on watlist)
Johns Hopkins (definitely NOT going to be on waitlist-I don't know why I applied, I hate how cutthroat the students are)
Claremont McKenna College (might put myself on waitlist)</p>

<p>Rejected
Stanford (deferred-->rejected, 1st choice- scr*w Stanford, my update form was a book, deferral was a false hope)
Princeton (woopdi-freakin-do, second choice)</p>

<p>o yeah and what does it say on your waitlist card? mine has some numbers like 1348952/194625 (1) COL-1YR</p>

<p>Yup, waitlisted - fun as ever. I applied to SFS and will definitely stay on the waitlist (mailed in card today) although any chance of getting off is slim to none. So, unless Georgetown so graciously offers me a spot in SFS (highly doubtful) with good financial aid (even more doubtful), I'll happily be attending Johns Hopkins.</p>

<p>Oh, and my waitlist card says the same thing.. my GU ID with some other numbers and SFS-1YR</p>

<p>hmmm, they "say" that there's no line, but I'm beginning to wonder... hopefully the <em>(1)</em> means something! (though I doubt it does) and does anyone know how many are on the waitlist for the College?</p>

<p>yeah i would like to know how many they waitlist for the college...how many are we competing against lol</p>

<p>i also got waitlisted for sfs, but accepted with a 15k per year scholarship at gw so i'll be taking my name off the list and just going to gw</p>

<p>also waitlisted SFS- i think im gonna stay on, if i dont get in off the waitlist (which is likely), ill happily be attending northwestern ( :</p>

<p>Waitlisted.. on the list for the Georgetown College but I expect to be going to USC next year.</p>

<p>hey SeanmcG: I got waitlisted at Georgetown College, and I'll probably be going to USC, too! did you apply for the Thematic Option program there?</p>

<p>Haha no. I was caught between international relations/architecture, so i'm doing architecture at USC</p>

<p>SeanMcG-are you staying on the waitlist or not? just curious :)</p>

<p>also--does anyone know about fin aid off the waitlist? as in is there any? haha</p>

<p>waitlisted, applied to georgetown college</p>

<p>also applied to:
american - accepted
gwu - accepted
u of illinois - accepted</p>

<p>i definitely won't be staying on the waitlist...gwu gave me $24,000 a year so it was an easy decision</p>

<p>Yup staying on the waitlist.</p>

<p>Well, page47 that's what I'm concerned about too. Assuming that we DO get off the waitlist (which is nearly impossible in itself), I think financial aid would be the next almost impossible obstacle since Georgetown has to distribute financial aid to ALL the other applicants who got accepted first then we get whatever they can give us.. which probably isnt much. :(</p>

<p>waitlisted... well.. Georgetown is really my #1 school, but if I don't get in,
I'll have to choose to go to Mcgill or Queens which offered me full scholarship. </p>

<p>Yeah, I'm a Canadian.</p>
