This makes me angry considering that they reopened apps. I would be pissed if my kid was qualified and still on the waitlist

We have been dealing with F&M. Very good experience. All positive.

They did not call your kid and say "IF we took you off the waitlist, would you definitely accept?"

It was very coy, and an attempt in our view to rig the numbers (so they would get a higher yield).

Every school does that. My kids got off 3 waitlists and they all said that.

This is crazy! Stanford must normally have one of the highest yields around!

Mine was asked if they were still interested in the waitlist. When they said yes, the person said they’d send an admissions offer through the portal. They didn’t ask for a commitment.
