I think most of the TT schools wait until after the response deadline and then figure out who to call from their waitlist in order to balance out that class. So the week or two after that (March 3rd) is key.

I regret we didn't express FC, but we truly couldn't decide between two (first time through this process and learning). We had great conversations with both admissions directors, so now we wait. Do waitlists typically move quickly or not at all? With one week down, are the chances diminishing?

I would just call the closest/most friendliest person I know in the admission office and speak off the record. Mention how you love the school and it is unfortunate to be WL. Ask how you can better prepare, if you decide to reapply.

We had the same thing happen to us last year, some very positive feedback but then WL. I suspected perhaps our PSD might have revealed that they weren't our very top choice. Otherwise I can't know what happened, perhaps more people gave 1st choice letters and we didn't so they WL us.
