Out of curiosity, where is your school located? So far, we have only gotten one in from the waitlist (in art)

To Trebleclef829,

Congatulations!!!!! From what I've heard you are going to LOVE Wash U!!!! Good Luck...My question: Did the Admissions office reveal how many kids they picked from the waitlist???

By Trebleclef829 (Trebleclef829) on Thursday, June 10, 2004 - 02:27 pm: Edit

They haven't revealed it to me. Last year they took 23 off of the waitlist (if that helps). I get the impression from people I know and from this message board that there are probably hundreds on the waitlist. Anyway, good luck. Also, I know that they don't rank their waitlist...so it's hard to tell what a person's shot is. I had given up hope about Wash U entirely...until I got the phone call three days ago.

Trebleclef829 and all Wash U students-to-be:

Check out Wash U and other schools that are reviewed by students/ www.studentreview.com
I think you all are going to love Wash U!!!

Everyone who got off the waitlist:

What did you do in terms of campaigning for yourself? Any details you can offer would be extremely helpful

By Pistolpete (Pistolpete) on Thursday, June 17, 2004 - 09:01 pm: Edit

I sent in one letter affirming my interest...though I'm not sure whether that was before or after they'd made the decision to waitlist me. The letter was primarily a "thank you" note to the admissions rep with whom I interviewed while I was visiting.

By Pistolpete (Pistolpete) on Thursday, June 17, 2004 - 11:31 pm: Edit

Forgot to mention, there were circumstances relating to my application that I'm guessing helped me out.

By Confused86 (Confused86) on Friday, June 18, 2004 - 04:12 pm: Edit

can anyone summarize what happened to the people on the waitlist. when i was on here a cuople of months ago, it seemed as if everyone was waitlisted. so how many waitlistees did they accept after May1?

By Trebleclef829 (Trebleclef829) on Friday, June 18, 2004 - 05:17 pm: Edit

I got into Wash U at the beginning of June. I don't know how many they accepted, but they were still accepting in June.

By Pistolpete (Pistolpete) on Saturday, June 19, 2004 - 11:56 am: Edit

They were still accepting on June 15.

i asked my regional rep, with whom i have a good relationship, and she said that she did not know how many have gotten off the waitlist. it sounds like more got off this year than in previous years, though.
