Update: I never got off the waitlist for the distance program, but I reapplied Feb 1 for on campus admission and got in for Fall 2013, but I'm starting classes June 3rd! Not the distance program, but still super excited!

I got my acceptance letter from TSU around 4/20

I applied for the MS of Speech Langauge Pathology at Tennessee State University. It took them 4 months to make a decision, but I am #8 on the waitlist What are the chances that people actually decline their offers. I am really anxious. I spent a lot of money and 2 years taking the prerequisites for this program. I met all the requirements for grades. I am in my 30's and settled with 2 kids, so don't have the ability to move and apply other places. What are the odds other reject their spot? This was for their distance program starting in the January. I guess my backup plan is to apply for their on campus program starting in the fall, but I really wanted the distance program so I could be near my kids more....please let me know your experiences with being on a waitlist for a specific subject like this. I have a BS in Business from Murray State, and took 21 hours of prerequisite course, I seriously have no idea what I'll do if I don't get in
