| I just got a call and apparently they are accepting 0% of students off of their priority wait list this year because a higher number of freshman have enrolled than expected.
The admissions officer also told me that they may have some spots open up within the next few weeks and they will accept people if spaces open, but it's not likely.
I applied to MCS.
The suspense is killing me! | |

| I was priority waitlisted at Tepper and jsut got a phone call. The lady said they were unable to accept anyone off of the Tepper waitlist. But that doesn't seem to match up to Space Ranger's post. | |

| I was wait-listed at SCS, MCS, CIT and have been told that there are no more openings available. I didn't ask for details but it could mean that there are no openings for all three of them. However, it could be that the lady was just being nice. | |

| Both Space Ranger and 3373cw said they're in. So, who's lying? | |

| UkidMom, Space Ranger and 3373cw both got into HSS, or Tepper. It is likely that those schools are NOT over-enrolled, since CMU is known for technology/science, not social science or business. | |

| All schools are full.
PS: Economics students do not take up a "Tepper" spot and are considered General HSS along with the rest of the HSS majors. | |

| i highly doubt there will be any spots in june for regular waitlist. looking at the waitlist thread from last year, most people got off the priority waitlist eventually, but that's not the case this year. well, it's just not a good year for us waitlistees. | |

| i just checked my "where i am in the process" page, and all my decisions are blank ("waitlist" status is gone).
to hersheymaster, i can't believe they lied to us in that email we all got. why did they send an email confirming priority waitlist status when they knew they couldn't get anyone off the waitlist? | |

| hersheymaster: well, they were actually trying to scare people off, but I see what you mean. It seems that one cannot trust the CMU Admission office to tell the truth.... For example, they said that the order in which the RD decisions came out was random, while in fact it was not. Whatever, I don't care for cmu anymore. | |

Yeah, I checked mine right after I got the email and it said 'Not Admitted' but I checked it again just now and its blank. | |
