does anyone have any insights on waitlists? is it okay to email back and ask our position on one?

I think it's fine, just be courteous and respectful! I got waitlisted at Ohio State and VCU. For both schools, I emailed to ask A) whether the list was a simple ranked/ordered list, and B.) whether they were able to tell me my ranking. 

OSU told me exactly what my position was; VCU's admin said "I'm not allowed to tell you your exact position, but..." and then gave me a general sense of which quartile I was in. Both schools seemed totally chill about it. Just be mindful that schools have different policies!

I was just placed on the waitlist for my #1 program (Virginia Tech), and I'm seriously hoping for a spot!!! I can't help but think of how my acceptance of a spot at VT would free up spots where I've been accepted (so far just 1, but things are looking up for at least one additional school). 

Sending hugs and love to everyone as we play this strange hybrid game of limbo and musical chairs! xo

does anyone know if UC Irvine has sent everything out already? i know it was said that they will be sending acceptances this week. do we have confirmation (or an inkling….) that those are done? i know they are a school that asks students not to share acceptances, but i’m still grasping at straws, i can’t help it!!

so do we think all the interview offers have gone out for Hunter?

I only see three fiction interview offers in the spreadsheet (unless I can't count?) but that could be low only because they ask people not to share?

Yeah looking now only rejections are sent snail mail anymore. Thank god, honestly. 

(although way back in 2016 someone got a letter, almost threw it out assuming it was a rejection, and it turned out to be an acceptance. Sam had forgotten to call her. 😂 That never happened again. Tales of Drafts past.) 

So we are confirmed waitlists for Iowa Fiction are emailed?

So do we think Syracuse acceptances are out? And no one from draft reported? Or are they just taking an abysmally long time?

based on the post a couple messages behind yours (who i am enormously happy for #congrats #slay #queen) i’m thinking this is very possible. but optimistically it’s also possible it’s just a few days’ variance from other years considering the spreadsheet shows last year 2/27 and the year before 2/21. idk. pass the ashwagandha

I don’t think so. We still have two to three weeks left for UCI.

Yeah…damn. Assuming I’ve been rejected by Syracuse at this point. This is rough, fam.

there’s already an acceptance on draft! and someone very credibly said they would be going out this week (meaning up until today i think)

I don’t think Syracuse generally asks people not to share acceptances. personally I think they might just be delayed. If acceptances are out, then at least waitlists must still be coming

Perhaps. But honestly I wouldn’t go by a sample size of one and hearsay either.
