Waitlisted for Exeter.....Chances?

<p>My nephew got waitlisted for Exeter. What do you think his chances are.</p>

<p>He has all A's. 99% in all 4 sections of the SSAT. Lives in Oregon. He needs financial aid. Do you think the need for aid is what hurt him?</p>

<p>If you get waitlisted how long does it take to find out if you got in?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i got WLed at exeter, too :stuck_out_tongue: 99th percentile SSATs, need major FA. might have been the ticker, but who knows? </p>

<p>deerfield (got WLed there too, eek) said that they probably wouldn’t offer any spots until april 11th, because april 10th is commitment day. i think you should use april 10th as a guideline. then again, i’ve heard of people who got off waitlists on like, march 13th, so…</p>

<p>best of luck!</p>

<p>You mentioned that you are on WL for deerfield. Have you received the letter already. I was told that they only mailed out today.</p>

<p>I don’t think that financial aid is the reason why people got waitlisted considering Exeter is a need-blind school. I got rejected…:(</p>

<p>I thought only Andover was need blind.</p>

<p>exeter is not need-blind.</p>

<p>yup, exeter is not need-blind. Andover is :)</p>
