One "expert" who studies WL movement thinks something is up with the UVA WL movement already. And yes, 57 is a big number. [/quote]

Ha ha this is really funny to read.  First. she said 57 is a small number - not a big one.  Second she made clear that this DOESN’T necessitate mean “something is up”:   “Then again, it was only 57 students. Maybe these were students that UVA had planned to admit all along, but had to delay it for optics or other institutional priorities.”

Your post serves as a good reminder that it’s always best to go to the original source.[/quote]

DP.  I went directly to the source too and found it interesting that she notes use of the waitlist this early means they’re probably nervous about yield.  So this is a form of yield protection.[/quote]

They didn’t defer this  year for the first time. Look at this waitlist movement as defer accepts. [/quote]
