They really want to overadmit a larger class don't they

There has been recent cycles where they didn’t really go to the waitlist at all, so no.

WashU is putting in running a whisper quiet ED3 round where they are putting in calls to students to ask if student will definitely accept and if so, they get an offer off the waitlist. But if you say yes, you are expected to accept (verbally binding). So be ready because anecdotally I hear they are making multiple calls this past week!

Lot of schools handle the wait list this way. Schools want the list to move quickly.

Every year the incoming class has gone up. I'm sure they don't want this year to be the exception.

STOP SAYING ED3.

It’s normal for schools to call to check if the kid wants the offer. Some don’t. Many do. Calm down.
