Any movements yet?
Doubt you’ll here anything before May.
In the past years they started admitting people off the waitlist in early mid April. Probably the class of 2022 is very full.
They did admit a few in April, but most were admitted in May.
This year was one of the most competitive ones. I don’t think people who got in will turn it down, but it’s just speculation. I guess they will take people in their class of 2023 or something. But it looks like 2022 is full.
Good luck guys! It’s not about where you go as much as it is about what you do there. As long as we keep ourselves motivated, we are going to be just fine.
Kinda sucks… if their yield keeps growing they really shouldn’t add so many people to the waitlist. Especially if they’ll reject most of them in prior rounds, because they’re not qualified.
I think they do this to get guaranteed grad applicants.
Ikr…it’s frustrating. It’s like one moment you are over it and the next moment you are like there’s one school to go. It seems unfair to me sometimes, keeping a bunch of hopefuls in a limbo when they know they are going to need only a handful.
idk @Ashtrash did say that their counselor called up chicago and they’re def taking kids off the waitlist this year somewhere earlier in the thread… this is horrible timing i’m worrying about this right now and my exams start next week
Don’t know if there will be a bunch taken off the waitlist this Friday. Any guesses?
Any guesses? It’s ONLY guesses. Lol.
…getting really stressed out. Can’t sleep at night and keep thinking what I did wrong in highschool and regretting the opportunities missed. Painful.
Oh, fakemonk you did everything right or you wouldn’t be on the waitlist at a school like UChicago. Sometimes the “college gods” have other plans. We are along for the ride. Hang in there.
So did everyone already put down a deposit at their other school, or are you waiting for Monday to do it?
@NinaBlue i’m having a really hard time choosing my other school to put down a deposit at. I just don’t really feel the same connection as I did with chicago! being stuck in limbo really sucks… it’s hard to move on
@NinaBlue waiting until Monday to put down a deposit

Reindeercoffee I am sorry you are in limbo. That is hard. Legends, I check it at least twice a day. Swimmy2022- I hear you!! Good Luck everyone. I hope you all end up happy with whatever happens.
i told myself i’d never ever make a cc account and comment because that’s not good for my sanity. but here i am. i check this thread so much that i had to block the domain on my browser a few days ago… but i feel you guys so much, it’s so hard to move on, and i feel bad that i still can’t mentally commit to the school that i’m putting down a deposit for (on mon) and 99% likely to attend for the next 4 years. i need college admissions therapy after this half a year++…
