Even though every school has a formula for how many will accept its offer of admission, it's impossible to truly know how many people will decide to go, especially in the current economic climate. If they admit 400 people with a target enrollment of 200 (hypothetical), it still might be possible that there are 250 people that are unable to go for financial or other reasons. Hence, the wait list. I don't know that there is really a trend as to how many people get into a school off of the wait list; I'd imagine it varies year to year.

Notification of admission would be whenever you receive your packet telling you you got in. It seems that most people that have gotten funding received information on that along with their letter of admission. I'm going home tomorrow, so I'll finally be able to check my packet out.

I received my acceptance to SIS (AU/UPeace dual degree program) by email this past Thursday. I've been out of town so I haven't been able to check my mail for the official acceptance packet yet.
