Waitlisted by the entire IVY LEAGUE

<p>i appleid to all 8.
rejected by cornell and brown.
wailisted at the other 6.</p>

<p>WHO WANTS TO ANALYZE THIS</p>

<p>hey, I was rejected HYP and waitlisted Cornell and Brown! There goes all my Ivies…</p>

<p>rejected by all five of mine!</p>

<p>rejected at harvard and yale, wait listed at penn disappointed</p>

<p>i envy you guys… i was only WL at princeton.</p>

<p>waitlisted cornell, rejected Penn, we should turn this into an ivy-rejects thread.</p>

<p>waitlisted harvard and princeton, rejected yale, accepted columbia</p>

<p>Rejected Brown, Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth (in that order)</p>

<p>Acepted:Penn, Cornell, Brown,Stanford, Dartmouth,
Wait listed: Yale, Harvard, Princeton</p>

<p>Waitlisted: Harvard, Yale, Princeton
Accepted: MIT, Caltech</p>

<p>Did I expect this? Definitely not! Why? Dunno either…</p>

<p>What does it really mean to be waitlisted? Can you find out where you are on the list? Do many students really get in from the waitlist? Do you need to wait until after May 1st to findout?</p>

<p>i second the above question</p>

<p>waitlisted at Cornell…rejected from all others. sigh.</p>

<p>Most Ivy League waiting lists (ALL Ivy League waiting lists?) are not ranked. Harvard’s definitely is not. Some years some people get in off the waiting list, and some years hardly anyone does. It’s worth staying on the waiting list if you want to trade a longer period of uncertainty for one last chance to get into a desired college. </p>

<p>Good luck to all of you making decisions about waiting lists and about where to enroll.</p>

</p>

<p>haha me too!! :P</p>

<p>tokenadult how many wud u estimate that are waitlisted in harvard this year?is it like 1,000 or 500?the letter says that 2 thirds stay on the wl and that last year 200 were accepted!!so we may be talking fro even a 40 % yield!!or am i too optimistic?</p>

<p>I haven’t heard anything about Harvard’s waitlist numbers this year and have no basis on which to guess. </p>

<p>Good luck if you decide to go for it.</p>

<p>I don’t recall Harvard ever saying in the past how many are on the waitlist. It could easily be 1000 if they think they might need 200. It seems they would want a large pool from which to choose. </p>

<p>I encourage you to read up on the topic of waitlists at Ivies- there are many different reasons kids are WLed: 1) they were qualified, but not enough room, 2) as a gesture to their school since someone else with lower scores who had a hook was admitted, 3) as a gesture to their alumni parents, etc. </p>

<p>Best of luck with it.</p>
