Yes there is definitely still a chance of your getting in. Write a nice letter to the admissions director reiterating your interest, why Madeira is a good fit for you and how you’d like to be involved there (clubs, sports, drama, etc) and (if true), clearly state you will attend if offered a spot. Good luck!!

Omg stop asking multiple times on every thread that’s ever discussed Madeira. Once AGAIN:
There’s no timeline on waitlists. The most likely outcome is she doesn’t come off it. If they do call to offer a spot, it could happen anytime. Most common times are right around when decisions/deposits are due from accepted families, right around when tuition becomes binding (typically June 1; I’m not sure if that’s different for boarding), and during the summer.
Re your first paragraph, are you seriously talking to an 8th grader like this? Keep scrolling if you are that angry. The question is coming from a child who's trying to get information. Be kind.

This sounds like a student asking for themselves, so a little more patience perhaps?
