[quote=Anonymous]Just a little background about how the waitpools tend to move for both MS and HS. The initial offers go out to students, who may have more than one offer. When the students say which program they select, that may create empty slots (or none), depending on how yield balanced out. This is the first organized selection from the waitpool. After this point, MS programs tend to be stable, unless families move. For high school, the next main opportunity for spaces to open is when private schools put out their acceptances. Some students will turn down a program to go to private. After that, the HS programs are also stable unless someone moves. If you haven't heard by early May, it is worth contacting the Magnet Coordinator to let them know you are still interested. Also worth contacting again mid-summer. If you are higher on their list of "I'm pretty sure this person will accept", then they may call you first to fill a late opening space.[/quote]
