Waitlist Mythical Legend?

<p>I will post this again here because the topic is wait lists.</p>

<p>SMU just wait listed 3 people for theatre from their first round last week and
accepted 5</p>

<p>SMU almost always goes to it's wait list in late February/early March for at least one student and sometimes two. </p>

<p>Last year they got to one of mine. But by then, he had already been offered a full ride at CMU in MT and took it instead!</p>

<p>When this particular student was placed on the wait list in November, I was told by the Dean that my student should treat it as an admit. That he would very likely be called on by late February for an offer. Well, that's what happened but it was too late. They understood completely. That's a long time to wait, especially when you have other teriffic offers out there.</p>
