It’s been a brutal wait and just got a decision to wait even longer. Gonna give up on Villanova soon…

Those of you waitlisted or rejected with legacy…I thought I saw on their website that if you had legacy you needed to apply early to get the bump. Kind of stinks but I’m pretty sure that was their stance this year, which might have been different in the past (when they just had EA it might have been the opposite).

@LolliCoomassie that sounds like DEFINITE yield protection…I’m sure he will get in if he goes on the wait list. But if he’s in reach schools, maybe it doesn’t matter?? Glad he has some great acceptances.

Son waitlisted for Nursing - after being deferred for EA! Its like we kinda really kinda want you…maybe!! Come ON!

Daughter ACCEPTED! Liberal Arts & Science-Economics

@collegemomjam I actually did apply early–I was just deferred! And this is kind of like an extended deferral :))
