I wouldn't expect much movement. They have emphasized not going to the wait list. That's why they admitted more kids.

In fact, the yield has been going down every year since Walls scrapped the admissions test.


What are you babbling about? Seriously you think kids on the waitlist are that much less qualified than those accepted? They all had the same GPA.

They now accept more kids than you have spots for. This is a recent change. It is not a one for one as it used to be.

I agree walls over-matched, but usually they have a freshman class of 155-160 on count day. So only about 30-35 “nos” before they turn to the waitlist.

Has anyone talked to the school? Any movement yet? We are also hopeful.

We would like to know more about the process and likely time frames. DS has a very good number, so we are hopeful.
