<p>So when I logged into UCSD, it said this </p>
<p>"Thank you for your application to UC San Diego for Fall Quarter 2012. After a thorough review of your application, we regret to inform you that we are unable to offer you admission at this time. However, as an exceptional applicant, we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to be considered for admission, should space become available after June 1. This waitlist offer is available to a limited number of students and is not a guarantee of admission. </p>
<p>We cannot predict whether you will receive an offer of admission by being on the waitlist. To learn more about our waitlist process, please take some time to carefully review our Waitlist FAQs, which also lists the mandatory deadlines.</p>
<p>You have until 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday, May 15, to reserve your place on the waitlist online by submitting a brief 200-word statement telling us why you would like to attend UC San Diego. If you choose to accept a place on our waitlist, we will notify you of our final application decision as soon as we know whether we can make additional offers of admission between June 1 and no later than July 1. </p>
<p>Take me to the Waitlist Opt-in Form to reserve my place on the waitlist. "</p>
