UB anyone get accepted recently?

Hello, we’ve been in contact with admissions. the first time we called we were told my daughter would hear back soon and we would be happy with the news. Called again today, and were told if we didn’t hear as of today looks like a wait list :frowning: has anyone gotten accepted in the last day or so?? still holding out hope since its her top school.

My son has not heard anything and UB is one of his top choices also. Disappointing.

I was accepted on monday. I know a lot of people accepted who aren’t planning on going there though so it should be fairly easy to get off the waitlist!

Just to clarify - UB and most other schools accept far more students than they can actually take. They know their “yield” and act accordingly. For example, if roughly 25% of students who are accepted normally enroll, and a school wants 1000 students, they will accept about 4000. So they have already accounted for the fact that a lot of people who were accepted will not go there. The people on the waitlist only get in if yield is lower than expected. I hope the best for anyone who was waitlisted, but you may want to consider your other options rather than pinning your hopes on getting off the waitlist.

I called UB today and they would not say whether my daughter was on a waitlist. They said she should hear in 2-3 weeks.
