<p>How many of you have accepted a place on the waitlist and what have you done in an attempt to be accepted to the University. I know there was a thread relating to this topic previously, but it was clutterted with all sorts of off-topic replies.</p>
<p>raises hand</p>
<p>the question rather than that is how do you get off the waitlist and get accepted? WashU is like my first choice school.</p>
<p>There are a number of different ways but the general formula
1. Stay in contact with admissions
2. Express interest
3. Report anything new</p>
<p>We are in the same boat. Its a dream school for my D. She is in to another school that is superb, and we have made our deposit. But if WashU calls, we are going there to be sure. No questions asked.</p>
