<p>What are the chances of being z-listed after remaining on the waitlist?</p>
<p>I’ve never heard of anyone being “z-listed” at Brown. The only people I know who took a deferment of admission are those who requested to.</p>
<p>Oh. I thought if they still wanted u from the waitlist after filling the class for the yr they could z list u. I think they do that at harvard and some other schools</p>
<p>Brown seems to “z-list” people from time to time, but it doesn’t appear to be as formal as it is at Harvard.</p>
<p>My high school has about four seniors on the Harvard z-list each year, and all of them were well-connected (famous parents, serious legacy, or major donors in the family). I don’t know what your situation is, but those kinds of connections might help you with the waitlist at Brown one way or the other.</p>
