[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looking at Stanford, about 24% of international undergraduate students come from China (14%) and India (10%). Chinese students will have a hard time getting visas no matter when they've applied within Trump 2.0 era. Indian students are struggling big time to get appointments for F-1 visas since they've "reopened" consular slots after the pause for setting social media vetting protocols. In an average first-year class of approx. 1700 students where 14% are internationals, that's about 57 students from China and India alone. It makes sense that these colleges are extending their waitlists into early August as they gauge exactly how many international students can't obtain visas in time for the fall 2025 semester. Agree with PP above that they probably have a pretty good sense already based on who had appointments booked before May 27...[/quote]

So expect 50 more WL spots at Stanford this month?[/quote]

It's hard to predict since Stanford starts almost a full month later (mid Sept.) than many other colleges. Maybe student visa processing will be able to catch up? More than likely somewhat significant or at least uncharacteristic late summer movement on extended waitlist however. [/quote]
