[quote=Anonymous]To me, waitlist slightly "better" - means to me that you fit the kind of student they want, but for the lack of space in the class. Deferral to me means either a soft no, or they truly want to evaluate you in the RD round with that bunch of kids, with the benefit of the additional info about you like your first semester grades. Net effect might be negligible as you don't know the real story in your case. Some schools do pull from the waitlist even in this climate, some not so much. Admittance in RD from ED/EA deferral does happen but it's more unusual. Deferral in ED or EA round, leading to full out denial in RD round, is common. Deferral in ED or EA round, leading to waitlist in RD round, also common. Always good to try to line up as many other options as you can.[/quote]
