waiting list... now what

<p>"You're" lol I'm just being an ass. Good luck. I'd probably do the same thing in your position unless being "wait listed" is UConn's way of deferment.</p>

<p><em>sarcasm</em> </p>

<p>I heard UConn is a crappy school anyway...</p>

<p><em>endsarcasm</em></p>

<p>Yeah I got wait listed at UCONN....</p>

<p>And it was my first choice as well. Here are my thoughts: First of all UCONN is being quite snobby considering it really isn't that great of a school. Solid applicants who are in the top 10-15% of our classes with good grades and decent test scores should be admitted. I got accepted into PENN STATE-UNIVERSITY PARK (Smeal College of Business) which is by far 10 times better than UCONN's business programs. All i can say is try to contact the school, maybe write a letter (like I did) and figure out what the hell their problem is. </p>

<p>And for being overbooked already, that is quite nonsense because that article is talking about for this year, and since UCONN has the highest number of students living on campus over any college in the nation, UCONN probably isn't overbooked already.</p>

<p>My guess on the deal with their wait list is that all of the CT residents want to go there this year, and the OOS's that have money who want to go there are applying because they see how much fun it looks at the basketball games and they want to be a part of it. </p>

<p>If you have any questions please contact me!!</p>

<p>eh uconnn…</p>

<p>MPM5236–are you still holding out for UConn, or have you moved on and enrolled elsewhere?</p>

<p>welll i havent enrolled anywhere yet- looking at ub, clarkson and niagara university… but will re evaluate if somehow accepted into connecticut</p>

<p>just heard today I’m on the wait list, and i got my application in early action.
is there much point me waiting till may? UCONN is the cheapest out of the unis i applied too as its instate, so ideally its my first choice.
might just accept place somewhere else for now and then just hope i get in later</p>
