[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD is also on two WLs. Is it safe to say there will be no movement on the WL until after the deadline for deposits passes for the first wave of enrollment offers? In other words, have any schools ever started pulling from WL as soon as spots free up or do they wait for all commitments to be made before going to the WL? [/quote] I don't know any facts for this year, but I would guess it's rare. Say a school take 15 people for 12 slots. They'd need at least 4 declines before the end date before they know they'll have space, and while 1 or 2 declines might happen it's probable not all the declines will come immediately. I have a hard time imagining schools, especially the most selective ones in DC, take more than 1 or 2 people off the waitlist for a given class, except the oddest scenarios.[/quote]
