<p>I sent in my letter (email) in the beginning of April, after I had heard back from all of the schools. Still haven’t heard from them but I did get off the waitlist for Claremont McKenna, which some years hasn’t even taken people off the waitlist. I’m still not giving up home for Uchicago, but there is hope!</p>
<p>Jeez that was terribly written. Sorry, I am really tired</p>
<p>Has any international student been taken off the waitlist?</p>
<p>@VladaS I’ve been wondering the same thing… it occured to me that international waitlist students may be considered differently (perhaps they have a certain amount of international students they’d like in each year). But I really wouldn’t know</p>
<p>Well when I asked they said as soon as they had reviewed an application they would let that student know, or within a reasonable time frame of review I am assuming. But I don’t know. </p>
<p>@Vlada @roguere Are you guys international students too? I searched the online forum in my country and nothing for UChicago yet</p>
<p>@WinnieZ Yes, I am a student from Eastern Europe. Do you know more information about international students?</p>
<p>@VladaS Unfortunately no… but I quite agree with @roguered They seem to have a number in mind for international students from a certain country. I’m from China btw</p>
<p>Do they send out rejection letters all in one go? </p>
<p>@elixerelixer I think they notify admitted students first. When the wait list is closed they send out rej letters all in one go:( @WinnieZ i’m from China,too! anxiously waiting for any news from UChicago! Best of luck to all 
</p>
<p>@Jenny19960318 Wow so nice haha! Best of luck to all and keep us updated!</p>
<p>My CC called today–they have a few spots still open, but not a lot.</p>
<p>Keep up hope, y’all!</p>
<p>@kaaboer Big congratulations!!! Thanks you for letting us know there’s still openings! Which region are you from?</p>
<p>Oh, I’m not in yet. I’m in the same limbo as everyone else.</p>
<p>Oh okay sorry about that 
but still thanks for that good news</p>
<p>how long do you think it’ll possibly take for them to fill? i don’t want to have this dwindling hope for much longer haha</p>
<p>I remembered someone said they generally close by May 8 in this thread but I forgot where. Not sure about this year</p>
<p>Oh it’s at the bottom of page#3</p>
<p>@kaarboer suddenly reminded of one thing: was you CC referring to the whole wait list or just your region? I’m a little worried now, because the other school I know said they are not open to international waitlistees, only the US </p>
<p>@WinnieZ Well, she didn’t make a distinction–but I’m from the South (TN), if that’s any help.</p>
