<p>The Office of Undergraduate Admissions regrets to inform waitlisted candidates that Amherst College will no longer be accepting students into the Class of 2015. Considering the large retention rate of students offered admission via regular decision notification, less than 15 spots were available to be filled from a waitlisted pool of over 2,000 candidates. I understand that this may come as a disappointment, but I hope that it is tempered by good news from other schools to which you have applied.</p>
<p>Thank you again for your interest in Amherst and please accept my best wishes for a successful college experience.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Thomas Parker
Dean of Undergraduate Admissions</p>
