Just thought I would start a thread for waitlisted students. Now that all decisions have come out, wondering if any schools will start choosing from their wait lists.
Schools usually wait till after May 1st before they go to the waitlist (if they do at all). Good luck
Daughter heard from Lehigh waitlist last week. 
Congrats on hearing from Lehigh! It seems Lehigh has been accepting every week from their wl. I guess it won’t be long now, if at all…
Villanova will start accepting people probably May 3,6,7, and 8 initially. Or at least around those days. Last year they got the waitlist decisions out very quickly if they were going to accept you.
My daughter was accepted off the Villanova waitlist yesterday. Does anyone know how long they get to decide whether or not to accept the offer?
@Kmhbt1 It should state in the offer otherwise I would think May 1.
@Kmhbt1 How was your daughter notified? Email?
@theodoretheman the admissions office called her yesterday (then sent a formal letter today).
wht were ur daughters stats?
@Kmhbt1 what school did she apply to?
She had 4.3 GPA and 1540 SAT. Engineering.
@Kmhbt1 congrats to daughter!!!
@amr12 thank you so much!
I emailed my rep again and in an automatic reply, it said that wait list decisions were going to be made AFTER May 1. That is pretty much a direct quote from an assistant director of admission. So I guess most people will receive their notifications AFTER May 1, but maybe some already got theres if there’s a lot of room…?
Not sure. I just know my daughter got hers on Monday as did a friend of hers. They are allowed until May 8 to decide so maybe depending on the initial responses they will open more spots?
@Kmhbt1 weird question, but do you know what the number was that called you? I have gotten a number of calls and I am not sure whether they’re those spam calls everyone is getting or not… Was it a 1-800 number?
we had a 4.3 gpa also have heard nothing
@kyir11 it was a 610 number. They left a message and then she called them back. After she told them yes she was interested in considering admission they sent a formal letter.
I JUST GOT OFF THE WAITLIST!!! College of Arts and Sciences – Arts Undeclared. SO HYPE!!! They called me and then said that I would get a letter in the morning. Good luck everyone else!
