For those of u who have lost hope, well, you'll be fine. I wasn't waitlisted from Penn State Honors College. I was REJECTED. I sent in multiple updates and showd them how badly I wanted to go there. I got in and will be attending this fall.

No matter how grim the situation, if you show them your true passion, you will succeed.

help please!
i am on the waiting list for penn state main and i checked my application status online today. it said that they had reached a final decision and that i would get a letter w/in 2 weeks. should i assume this means no because it seems like a lot of you have been getting calls/emails or not?!

mcmatt: Has Gtown already contacted the wait list people that they are admitting for all of the schools or do you mean that they just sent out the letters? Thanks for the update!

It sounds like Brown is active - someone in the Brown forum called admissions and they said that originally 10 were going to be taken off of the waitlist, but not it looks like there'll be even more because of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Penn.

I have decided to take a year off before college, but I got a waitlist offer today. do you think they will let me defer a year even if they are accepting me for the purpose of filling this years class?

Yay for Brown!!!! I did get a letter earlier saying that they would take people off the waitlist, but it didn't say how much. Why must colleges be so vague? *cries*
