[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The wait list is a certificate of merit. You were close, but you didn't win. [/quote]'' Not necessarily. It really depends on the school and how well they predicted yield. As PPs have said, I would go to the CC threads for individual colleges and also reference the CDS for the past few years. Last year's CDS will probably be bad because many schools underestimated who would accept admission (of admitted students) and overenrolled. Things could change if they corrected their calculations. Who knows. But, I don't get why people continually like to weigh in saying WL is just a "you came close." It is what it says it is, a wait list. Some places have likely little movement. Some years calculations have been off. It is fair to say that they clearly WL far more people than they will ever possibly admit. [/quote]
