Wait List

[fullspeedahead]

Good Morning All,

This morning I was placed on the Wait List and I fully intend to accept a spot. Just thought I would inform the community because I have not heard of this happening before now. Good luck to everyone and remember that no matter what happens, you should never give up on your dream.

How were you notified? Portal or email?
Thanks!
We're not 100% confident in the portals.

My DS was also placed on waitlist, no email, just checked portal this morning. How many are typically waitlisted? What are the chances of being called up from this list?

Someone mentioned on another thread, it's around 100

No one here knows, especially this year. They may have more than normal, they may have less.

There were waitlisters last year that got appointments (one in mid-late June), but other years as low as none.

How does the wait list decision looks like in the portal? No change for me

I received no email and just checked my portal this morning and it had my decision ready. Guess we will just have to wait and see!

Was this the back door entry portal hack or the new portal?
Do you mind taking a screenshot so we can see? Thanks so much!

It looked like this in the new portal and then when you click on the decision it opens your letter.

 

[usmagirl118]

I am assuming that you did not have any decision prior to today on your portal. Is that right?

Thank you so much for posting this!! Helps to know DS is looking in the right spot.

@usmagirl118 No, my portal updated this morning and it was the first time I have heard anything since the wait began.

Does this mean that no more acceptances are going out?

No, there will still be acceptances that go out.

Oh man, that's quite a button there. Hoo boy. Try not to shake too much when you click on it.
Good luck!

You’d think wait list appointments would be a near final step in the process. Not that my DS has heard anything yet but I can’t see how they designate wait list without knowing who they are offering and who they are declining.

exactly my concern

Same thing happened to me this morning. No email, just an updated portal.

The letter states that candidates who have received appointments have until May 1st to accept. From that point, admissions will select from the waitlist to fill up the class.
