"Are you happy there?" Might be too general, though.

I would reply and at least thank them for the notification. I don't know if adcoms weigh how interested a waitlistee seems to be in their program when making 2nd round admission decisions, but it may behoove you to demonstrate somehow your continued interest in their program. Perhaps ask to be put in contact with a current student or professor. Since some waitlistees are invited to visiting days this does not seem presumptuous.

I wasn't going to register. But then I saw Gnothi_Seauton's username and I just had to make this one. I don't feel like putting up too much about myself right now. Suffice to say that my overall GPA is quite weak (<3.5) and my GREs are quite strong (>95% for each section). I applied to just over 10 schools, all PhD programs. If I get in anywhere it'll be a testament to how a weak GPA needn't exclude a candidate from consideration. Oh, I'm interested in metaphysics.

Analytical metaphysics. And some philosophy of physics. I also like Foucault.
