"High on wait list" + "invited to open house" = ???

I was accepted by School A, with full finding, at the beginning of February.  School B is large and public, and their English department has a strong reputation in the concentration I plan to pursue.  I have received a couple emails from members of the department encouraging me to accept their offer, as they feel I am a strong candidate.

This week, I was wait listed at School B.  School B is private, guarantees funding, and has a better reputation than School A.  In the email, they said I was "high on the wait list" and invited me to their accepted student open house (funded) later this month.

My question is, Do you think School B told all wait listed students they were "high on the wait list"?  How much should I read into that?  Likewise, do they typically invite all wait listed students to the open house?

Thanks!

If they said you're high on the wait list, why are you doubting them or assuming they said this to everyone? Without knowing which school we're talking about, it's hard to say how they treat wait listed students when it comes to the open house.
