| Cpt,
I'm not sure this kind of waitlisting is new so much as it has become more apparent given the rest of the admissions crunch.
At our house, S rejected his waitlist offer. In fairness, he was pretty ambivalent about that school all along, but after the school had personally recruited him and then deferred and waitlisted him, it was proof to him that they were looking for something he did not value nearly as highly as they apparently did. |
