Hello there and thanks for setting up the thread, I've received the worst news today - that being that I've been waitlisted. I was just wondering what light you could shed on this situation. Is it a long or short list? Can I locate myself on it (near the top or bottom)? In reality is it one of those lists that sits untouched because the school has accepted a generous collection of students that are more than likely going to fill the incoming cohort, thus leaving no room to accept waitlisted folks (barring an anomaly)? I inquire only because I have other graduate school decisions to make that will require responses contingent on things I need to know far before May(ish). So, I need to know what the gambling position is. Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated, and even if you could direct me to an individual that could give me an indication on the prospects of waitlisted folks that'd be super great. Thanks much.
