Subject: School said they made offers, waitlist # hasn’t changed
Thanks, PPs. The school said they had 10 days to accept, which passed over a week ago. Could be that siblings jumped the line, but that one spot movement is the only change we’ve seen since May 1 and I would think siblings would move ahead at the time their sibling enrolled, not all at once. Could be wrong though.
My hope is that one person ahead of us accepted an offer elsewhere, and we’ll move down to #1 or 2 once the registrar updates the system on their end. Wishful thinking!

Does anyone have any insight? Does the waitlist update automatically when someone ahead of you is removed from the waitlist through MSDC, but schools have to enter their information directly? Possibly the school registrar just hasn’t gotten around to processing the enrollments for the first 4 offers and at some point it will jump down all at once?
The people who received the offers get a deadline to reply. The numbers won't change until one or more of those four decline to enroll.

The number doesn't change until the offer is accepted.

Keep in mind if someone enrolls, their siblings will jump to the top of the list. So 4 offers might have been made and 3 new people jumped ahead of your kid.
