Waitlisted! Now what?

Applying to College

<p>Hi!</p>

<p>I've been waitlisted to my dream school, WHARTON. I really want to go there and plus I have only been accepted to what I considered to be my safeties, U of Richmond and Babson.</p>

<p>Stats:
SAT I: 2120
SAT II: M 760, Physics 740, Spanish 800
IB with HL Math (6), Physics (6) and English (6)
and SL Geography(7), Art(6) and Spanish (7)
Total : 41
No Fin Aid</p>

<p>I was wondering, what can I do to increase my chances?
I have sent an email to my regional counselor with a letter confirming my interest.
-He answered saying the typical thank you + added to your file. Should I reply? and what can I tell him?</p>

<p>And what else is there to do??</p>

<p>THANKS!!</p>

<p>I would recommend sending an updated lists of awards/accomplishments. Seems like a lot of organizations hand out awards to seniors at this time of year so if you’ve gotten any you should tell them about it.</p>

<p>I don’t have any :$</p>

<p>just hope for the best. Keep in mind that last year Penn took 15 off waitlist. This year, they admitted an extra 150 kids to eliminate taking off the waitlist/</p>

<p>yeah, I know, that’s why I want to increase my chances to the max!</p>
