<p>It is a shame that, after being one of the more transparent application processes among top tier schools, that VU dropped the ball the past two months. I hope that it learns from this experience - that even a small glimpse into the WL winnowing process would be helpful to those waiting - when it updates its information next year.</p>
<p>To those for whom the wait is finally over, best of luck where ever you are going. Remember – although it may not be readily apparent to an 18 year old, there is more than one “perfect” or “right” school, and if you throw yourself into the school you attend with all of your talent and smarts (and if you were WLed at VU you have plenty of both), one day you will look back fondly at the collegiate experience that fate provided. [And then, when you become the next Bill Gates, don’t give VU a penny. :)]</p>
<p>Best of luck.</p>
