I remember that when i sent in my waitlist confirmation for Wake, I told them to notify me by June 30. the last date was August. I think there were four options, one in mid-may, and the other in early june. So, i am agreeing and guessing that they are making there first round for the May date.

Update from Cornell

Thank you for your continued interest in Cornell University. Since you have elected to remain on our waiting list, I am writing to provide you with an update.

As of today, we have made a limited number of offers of admission from the waiting list for our School of Hotel Administration. Although there is still a possibility that we may extend offers of admission for Cornell's other colleges and schools, we are not prepared to do so at this time. We should have another update for you during the week of May 26, or you may hear from us sooner if we are able to extend an offer of admission to you.

With best regards,

Jason C. Locke
Director
Undergraduate Admissions Office

"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."

Congrats Sandyrun -- I gave up my Schreyer offer for UNC.

My friend got into Yale off the waitlist. But I think she would count as international (Puerto Rico).
