Waitlisted
Was anyone else waitlisted? Do you think you are going to write in to stay on it?

Does anyone know how financial aid works with waitlisting?

I got waitlisted.
I don't think I'm going to write in. It was my last choice and I've already been accepted to two other schools that were ranked higher on my list so I'll probably give up my spot to give someone else a shot that really wants it

I have no clue how financial aid works. I'd wait a few days and give 'em a call.
Good luck!
