Does anyone have any experience with Univ. of Richmond wait list? Currently accepted at several other great schools, but hoping to become a spider in Fall 2016. Have sent initial email indicating Richmond is my first choice and signed on wait list. Not sure how to show Richmond Admissions that I am still interested without going over-board and pestering them too much. Any ideas appreciated. Also, would be nice if anyone could respond if/when taken off of wait list, and how they were notified. Any idea of how many they usually take? Thanks, and congrats to those who got in! I’m trying to remain optimistic, but nervous…
If you need financial aid, look elsewhere. I found this with a quick search:
“Almost all need-blind schools become need-sensitive or need-aware when admitting students off of the waiting list. Only five colleges say that they are need-blind for wait-listed students: Amherst, Babson, Bard, Baylor and Wellesley.”
Anyone heard anything about the waitlist?
No news! I imagine we would not hear until after the May 1 decision deadline, so they have an idea of how many they need to fill. Good luck!
Does anyone know when wait listed students were notified last year? Haven’t seen anything.
Good luck to all those on waitlist! Should be some spots opening up; my son and several classmates were accepted but have decided to attend other colleges.
Has anyone heard anything yet?
The waiting period is killing me…
My daughter was wait listed and she just received an email today for a spot. She has to let them know by tomorrow end of day.
Where do you live? I will have my daughter check her email. Thanks for your input.
Also, is Richmond her first choice?
My daughter goes to a Private School in Manhattan. Richmond was on the top of her list.
Thanks
Do they send you a response either way?
I was waitlisted and haven’t heard anything yet. was I supposed to receive a confirmation that I accepted the a spot on the waitlist?
I’m assuming they’ve pretty much finished with the WL by now - from our small sample size doesn’t seem like many got offered a spot.
I suspect the same.
But in the letter they said “by the end of June” so I’m still waiting…
I’m still waiting…
So are we.
