[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone on SJC waitlist hear a final decision?[/quote]

I don't think you get a "final decision".

The Gonzaga email that announced they would not be going to the WL this year is the first time I ever heard of something like that.

It's possible that schools extend offers of admission to those on the WL as late as the start of school in August. This is because of special circumstances with admitted students that have made deposits (e.g. People moving because of job transfer).

+1 I think in most cases you will never know for sure, unless you get off the list, until school starts. It's disappointing and frustrating and I really hope that more schools start to do what Gonzaga did to give people a more realistic outlook.[/quote]

Lots of luck with that. Schools guard Application, Admission, Yield and Wait Pool statistics like they were State secrets.

They might suggest the number of applications. But these numbers can be inflated since some may feel it's a measure of attractiveness.

It's not to the school's advantage to give out this information.[/quote]
