Hello. I am currently in the 9th grade and I got waitlisted at Exeter. I already emailed the admissions office asking to secure a place on the waitlist. I also emailed them explaining why I wish to go to the school and am continuing to update them on my recent accomplishments. I already applied before for the 9th grade and got rejected. So now I am waiting for an update from them and I’m just curious as to what my chances are of getting off the waitlist. I believe many students will accept the 10th grade admissions offer, so my chances of getting off the waitlist may be slim. What do you think?
Here’s a massive thread on the waitlist:

Hope it helps, and good luck!
Hey! I would totally post that same post in the thread that the user above has linked but I’m just here to tell you not to give up! It looks like you really really like Andover and so I hope you do get in somehow. Don’t worry too much though, and focus on making yourself happy for the time being
