Waitlisted....anyone else?

<p>got waitlisted…trying to figure out what else to do…anyone else out there on the same boat as i am in ??</p>

<p>blah. me too.</p>

<p>keeping it?? got no other acceptances?? well...guess not....me neither....sent them such cool essays and this is what they do!! i sent in the apps really late so um guessing they dint have enough money by the time they got to my file.....wtv...um whining! the point is, um trying to get an idea about the no. of people on the waiting list....u kno??</p>

<p>ah yeah im staying on the waitlist. but ugh, i really just wish i had gotten in. i try not to think about it too much because end up doubting that i'll get in, so yeah. i guess i can only hope.</p>

<p>do you have any idea about bryn mawr's waitlist stats?? as in how many ppl are in the waitlist this year....how many were accepted from waitlist the previous years???URGENT!! i need to know...</p>

<p>I don't have any waitlist statistics, but I do know that Bryn Mawr's admissions office can be <em>very</em> accommodating when it comes to receiving additional information from candidates, even over the summer. (I got in off the Bryn Mawr waitlist in AUGUST, after initially being rejected outright.) Don't be shy about calling them or asking your guidance counselor to call them to let them know that BMC is your definite first choice and that you'd like to know what extra info you could offer to bolster your application. Send them a well-edited letter about some new job or activity you've gotten involved in; if you have another teacher or coach who loves you but didn't write a rec before, it won't hurt to send one in now. When my guidance counselor contacted them after my inital rejection, he spoke to the officer in charge of my file, who remembered me and discussed my app quite candidly with him. This gave us a lot of good information that helped us change their minds over the summer. Good luck!</p>

<p>I just got in. I got a call last night. Definitely wasn't planning on hearing this early.</p>

<p>wow...congrats....i am still waiting for mine...expect it within the next few days....u an international student??</p>
