UChicago Waitlist Thread

<p>@ironchariot I check my email pretty religiously, and I looked in the spam folder and didnt see anything…btw is the ask grace thread the ask an admissions officer thread?</p>

<p>yeah it’s the same thread</p>

<p>Okay thanks! @ironchariot‌ just posted (:</p>

<p>@ironchariot‌ was told to ask my regional counselor…</p>

<p>@ocflav did you contact your regional admin to get an update on your waitlisted status? </p>

<p>Hey, guys! Sorry I haven’t been on CC in a while. I meant to let y’all know that admissions did, in fact, keep a wait list during the summer. I emailed the admissions rep for my state, and she said I was still on the list! Anyone get accepted of the wait list after the initial rejection emails were sent out?? I’m dying to know lol</p>

I just got waitlisted by UChicago. My question was, does being put on the waitlist automatically nullify any chances I had of getting financial aid? Or if (god!) I do get in, a financial aid offer will then be made?

@ChessMom59‌ Well in that case it sounds like my chances of getting off the waitlist are about the same (slightly better) as getting in RD based on UChicago’s 8% acceptance rate. Right?

Just relax guys. There are more decisions awaiting. Have a nice meal. Enjoy your hobby. Forget it until all your opportunities are clear.

I’m going to sleep now. Waitlisted applicant reporting :((

The chance for waitlisted students to be accepted is around 3%. Nail biting couple of weeks ahead. Good luck, and stay calm.

So did everyone get waitlisted or something? I did as well.

Just got the news - I was waitlisted today. I wish everyone luck…

Wow, so many people were waitlisted. Have you guys accepted a spot?

No, not yet. I will wait until I get all my decisions.

Yep! I accepted a spot. I’m now waiting on decisions from about five more schools. I’m a little bit worried about FA…

I kind of wish some of these older posters on this thread were still around…

@hallowdreams‌ Haha. You won’t wish to be around here in a couple of years.
