<p>I tried a search for wait-listed and did not have patience or could not find many devoted threads. S just got a wait-listed email, which is both encouraging and disappointing at the same time. CC's have experience to share from years past? I am sure each school and each experience is different. The letter said he was one of only 4 "unranked" waitlisted acceptances.</p>
<p>Here’s a few (I didn’t pull any dealing with summer program wait lists, as that is a different animal entirely.)</p>

<p>violadad, thanks for your help. Your computer skills surpass mine, and I admit I had hoped you would come through! The threads answered a lot of questions in my mind and raised possibilities and suggestions I had not thought of.</p>
<p>DD was waited listed at one of her schools that she really liked. However, she had several fine acceptances with good merit money. She went back to the top 3 of those for lessons and final look and fell in love with the teacher and school at what became her final choice. When she finally came off the wait list she did not care and sent the decline in the same day. Things have a way of working out. Has he heard from any others? Did he have a safety he liked?</p>
