[quote=Anonymous]Taking a kid from the waitlist is typically an institutional-advancement decision. Qualification etc means little. Wait-list places are most likely to go to large donors, or diversity-recruits for whom funding had not yet been established, or sibs for whom there was not a space when the school wants to retain an entire family. At most privates, the wait-list isn't really intended for "just-missed" applicants; it's not like Yale. [/quote]
