[quote=Anonymous]To the parent who asked: being wait listed is one possible admission outcome. You can learn you were admitted, rejected or waitlisted. They expect you to contact them and state whether you want to be on the wait list (after they offer this option to you). The vast majority of waitlisted kids don't get in. The ones that do are usually notified AFTER the deadline for them accepting an offer from (and paying the deposit at) another school. It can be quite late in the process (like late summer). It's emotionally hard on the child who wanted the WL school. Dampens their excitement about, and commitment to, the school they accepted. [/quote]
