<p>Anybody heard anything yet?</p>
<p>if only! No, I haven't heard anything, but I cross my fingers every day...</p>
<p>Nothing here yet either - still hoping - but I am quite happy with my second choice as well</p>
<p>where are you all planning on attending if the waitlist doesnt work out?</p>
<p>Davidson College in North Carolina</p>
<p>Well, I know of one slot open. My son just accepted a spot off the waitlist at Swarthmore, and won't be attending Bowdoin after all. Good luck everybody - I know how anxious wait listing is...</p>
<p>Any word from Bowdoin yet????</p>
<p>They posted the class of 09 profile a bit ago, and it said that 483 people had accepted a spot. If I'm not mistaken, that is pretty close to the number that they are aiming for. I would imagine that waitlist spots will become available as a result of people leaving Bowdoin by getting off of other waitlists, not because they are underenrolled. I could be wrong though--I'm not sure exactly what number of students they want.</p>
<p>Geniusriki's right... they were only looking for 480 (<a href="http://www.bowdoin.edu/news/archives/1bowdoincampus/002020.shtml%5B/url%5D">http://www.bowdoin.edu/news/archives/1bowdoincampus/002020.shtml</a>) which means the 483 already satisfies that. Even the slot from bman's son probably won't do anything for the waitlist. This is not looking good, I'm sorry to say...</p>
