Looks like this year UChicago admitted 500 less students. Website indicates last year UChicago admitted 2,460 students out of 37,977 applications = 6.5% admit rate.

A waitlist means they like you and would love to have you, but they probably have institutional needs to fill so have to see how the class shakes out to see if they can offer you a spot. U Chicago is a top 10 school, extremely difficult for admissions. It is really hard for admissions officers to choose between many, many equally qualified applicants for a single spot. I wish there were enough spots for all the kids they’d love to take!

Where did you see the admitted number?

My daughter’s friend was rejected.

Was anyone waitlisted who got deferred ea?
