Hi everyone! I wanted to start a thread for the people who were waitlisted at Bates College for the class of 2019. You can post your thoughts/decisions here.
Hey! I got waitlisted and I’m not gonna lie, the process has been frustrating. Bates is a great school and I really want to go there, but I feel like even if I have a great 2nd semester GPA and even more EC’s im not gonna get off…
same here wait listed and I did not provide any additional stats except a short essay for the follow up waitlist email
Has anyone heard anything yet? Have you been accepted off the wait list?
@6author4 I haven’t heard anything yet 
I really hope they let people know soon. The wait is killing me!
Hey guys! I got a call from them today, and I got off! I’m still considering it, but I’m not sure what to do.
Same here. I got wait listed at Bates too but I haven’t heard anything back.
No wait list news here. @Rajsingh What did you decide?
I decided to stick with BC. Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they’re only taking 3 kids off the wait list this year
@Ragsingh good luck at BC, and thank you for letting us know.
@Rajsingh - good luck to you at BC. What’s your source re: taking just 3 off the waitlist? Thanks!
