<p>Does the school have a waiting list? Yes
Number of applicants placed on a waiting list: 10,971
Number of students on the wait list accepted: 3,659
Number of students enrolled from a waiting list: 321</p>
<p>The wording in USNWR is incorrect. It should read:</p>
<p>Number of applicants offered a place on waitlist:
Number of applicants accepting a place on waitlist:</p>
<h2>Number of applicants waitlisted students admitted:</h2>
<p>Here’s USNWR’s waitlist info for Princeton and Cornell -</p>
<p>PRINCETON
Number of applicants placed on a waiting list: 1,526
Number of students on the wait list accepted: 1,061
Number of students enrolled from a waiting list: 148 </p>
<p>CORNELL
Number of applicants placed on a waiting list: 3,444
Number of students on the wait list accepted: 2,163
Number of students enrolled from a waiting list: 44 </p>
<p>Wouldn’t it be nice if over 1,000 students were admitted off the waitlist for Princeton?</p>
<p>So its more like 9%.</p>
<p>i see
BTW it is really ridiculous for USNWR to write so ambiguous words</p>
