Congrats! Looking at past years, they have typically accepted around 160

sure! i think a big part of what helped me was that i applied to enter as a freshman. i was rejected but the continued interest helped i think?

  • white female sophomore in college with a 3.8
  • attends a large public university
  • from an urban area
  • didn’t submit any test scores
  • first generation
  • interviewed with a student
  • tons of ECs that pertain to my specific interests (dance and politics basically haha)
  • work and volunteer a lot
  • in an honors society
  • have a scholarship and a service award
  • letters of rec from professors in my major and my dance instructor whom i have known since I was a child
    I’m not really sure what else to include haha. i was lurking on this forum to see when decisions come out but in general i don’t post on these things so I’m not sure if that was what you were looking for. hope it helped!

Thanks for sharing! My stats are somewhat similar, so that makes me feel a little better about potentially getting off the waitlist. Is Wes your first choice? Did you apply for financial aid?

Congrats again!!

How good are my chances of getting off the waitlist in general/ if I tell them I won’t be needing aid anymore?
