Accepted with 1330 SAT 3.3 unweighted (3.95 weighted) and 6 AP classes from MA. Shocking to see so many people here with extremely high stats get waitlisted makes no sense.
@kdog30 Yeah. Her profile looks more for top 20 then after 20. So yield protection looks probable. Has she applied to other schools? If interested, calling admission may get insight.
I live in CA…friends close to me have gotten mail back from Wake, but nothing came in for me today. Do they send out rejections or do you just assume since you got nothing in the mail?

Devastated ?
@ladydon518 No school would ever make you have to guess if you’ve been rejected. Fingers crossed for you but you will hear soon, one way or the other. Presumably, results will be posted online too.
@ladydon518 unfortunately its probably just the USPS that has delayed your answer. You will get something in the mail no matter what. Hope it’s good news for you!!
btw they do not post results online.

@kdog30 Great stats. I think the RD round is crazy competitive, and since they take half the class or more from ED, I bet they use the RD round to fill out things they need such as an oboe player or a robotics person. Your child is more than qualified so there is nothing wrong with her.Also, if there isn’t any documentation of an official visit they probably think she wasn’t interested. Maybe have her write her regional rep a letter stating how much she would love to attend etc.
Still nothing in the mail…guess I did not make it…anyone who got their rejections?
@Lilllllllly My understanding is that all decisions get mailed out at the same time. You just haven’t gotten it yet.

Ive gotten nothing as of Monday the 25th. Live in Iowa City. Not too sure if this means im rejected/WL or the acceptances just have not reached my area yet. Anyone in the midwest or close to Iowa have any updates?
^^ i also think that people on CC are more likely to post acceptances so the number of acceptances on CC will be disproportionately higher than the number of WL/reject when compared to the overall RD accept rate (which recently has been about 30%). Also, on CC last year people were still finding out 5-7 days after the mail date so if you haven’t heard yet it doesn’t mean anything except that your mail is slow.
My daughter waitlisted in PA. Her third wait list in a about a week (Richmond and BC) so this is pretty disheartening.

@WLVGirl I was also waitlisted 3 in a row BC, Barnard, and UMiami. Is she still waiting for more decisions this week?
@carolinasun - Thank you for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate and agree with your sentiments. This whole process is just crazy. WF just has me confused as I can’t figure out what they are really looking for. My daughter does have some great options and has been fortunate enough to be offered some merit scholarships. I am of the firm belief that things usually turn out for the best. Even if she makes it off the wait list, perhaps this school is not where she is meant to be. ( Plus, we won’t have to deplete our savings to send her there - ?)
Could I call today to find out my decision? Informed delivery shows mail that they don’t have a picture of, but it said the same thing yesterday, and I don’t feel like waiting through school just to be disappointed if I don’t get a decision one way or another.
@lsufan4301 you could try, I’m not sure they will give it to you yet since they just mailed them on Friday. I know the waiting is hard, hang in there!
Admitted! (I won’t be going because I received a scholarship to go elsewhere)

HELP - similar to what Isufan4301 is saying, my S hasn’t received his decision. A lot of people in our state seems to have received them. For those with informed delivery who were accepted, the day your received it, did informed delivery say you had a package(s) for which they don’t have an image of?? From back reading, I know you absolutely don’t want to see an image with Wake forest on it (it can only be that BAD white envelope), just curious if the GOOD wake package is recorded on informed delivery, just without an image. Hoping an grasping I suppose.
