funding waitlist?

[dpu2012]

I received an email from a school I had been accepted to and they said I was number 1 on the waitlist for funding. Does anyone know what my potential chances would be to receive a funding offer from the school? Im just hoping they do not tell a lot of people they are "number 1" waiting for funding. Its one of my top choice schools, but really need the funding to make it possible.

They are probably telling you are high on the list because they still want you to come. I was waitlisted for funding at several places when I was applying and ended up getting funding offers from all but one where I was originally waitlisted. I started hearing towards the end of March - whenever other people started to turn down their offers. There's definitely still hope!
