Wait List Notification

<p>Hello! I was waitlisted at The Hotchkiss School and Choate Rosemary Hall. If anybody has any experience or information regarding the earliest time these schools ever take a student off the List, please share. Thanks!</p>

<p>Hey :)</p>

<p>I was waitlisted at Groton and in the letter it says that a whole mess of schools agreed to make people accept/decline spots by April 10th, so that’s the earliest they’ll tell us anything. I don’t know if Hotchkiss is included in that “whole mess of schools” (obviously not the exact wording :)) but I would assume that it’s the 10th.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>PS This is my 100th post! Yay :slight_smile: I feel special! :)</p>

<p>Getting off the WL, if it even happens at all, could come as early as 10-apr or as late as august.</p>

<p>My mom told me about this one girl who was taken off the WL the day before school started, and obviously decided to go to boarding school…so that gives you a good range of a WL time frame.</p>

<p>The two waitlists I got, at Andover and Hothckiss, both maintained a “not notifing you until April 10” attitude; especially Andover.</p>

<p>However, I do know of a friend (let’s call him L) who got off the waitlist after April 10, because of L’s high scores in two high-school math contests (L was in eighth grade at the time, so beating 10-12th graders probably awed the teachers.) But, at the same time, L did not get of the waitlist at Andover, etc, so it really depends.</p>

<p>Good luck! :)</p>
