<p>Any activity on the waitlist?</p>
<p>I don’t think you are expected to hear before mid-May at the earliest from the FAQ on their web…</p>
<p>My daughter received an email a few hours ago that she has been accepted off the waitlist! Details to arrive in the mail.</p>
<p>@mommio - same here. D just received her email as well today. She is enthralled to even think about the consequences of leaving the bright, sunny climes of California. We are very excited as well and congratulations to you and your D. Thanks MAC for making our lives easier than we thought it would be.</p>
<p>We are from Chicago, so the weather at Mac will be a bit tougher, but not quite the shock to the system that it will be for your daughter! Good for her for braving it! Merit aid will be a huge factor in my daughter’s decision. I wonder if there will be any…</p>
<p>Just got the FedEx envelope. No mention of any merit. We did not apply for need-based aid. Unless there is a surprise lurking somewhere, I don’t think Mac will be the one :(</p>
