[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This idea that schools waitlist everyone instead of rejecting some of them is unsupported by any facts or knowledge. Of course, putting an applicant in the wait pool doesn’t cost the school anything and it does give them a wider selection of applicants if they do need to go to the pool to fill shortfalls in enrollment. But at the same time it is dishonest and and these schools are not staffed with cynical people without standards. They know a rejection stings but at the same time it frees the applicant up to pursue other options. [/quote] Love this. Unless the school has outright stated “we waitlist everyone” and someone has screenshots of said statement to prove it.. I don’t believe it. Waitlisting everyone sounds like a logistical nightmare for admissions offices who already appear unable to handle to volume of parents vying to get their kids in.[/quote]
