| Got off UGA
I got off the UGA waitlist. I think one of the main reasons is because I developed a personal relation with my counsler. I called and emailed her starting from Dec(EA) into May, when she finally contacted me for to offer admission. | |

| pmahesh107: Sorry dude, but there was a waitlist thread in the Rice forum and people said Rice isn't taking anyone off the waitlist. Rice actually might be over-enrolled, I hear.
But, I mean, who knows, maybe Rice will go to the waitlist because of the summer melt, but for right now it doesn't look too likely... | |

| Yes, I was referring to the summer melt. As many of the Rice students who turned in their enrollment deposit are accepted off the waitlist at their dream ivy such as Harvard, the waitlist will open up. I just hope enough people are taken off so that I can get off the waitlist =) | |

| I called the Chicago admissions office and they said that they're currently overenrolled-I'm not sure if that will still be the case after Harvard/Princeton/Yale start taking kids. | |

| Is it true that colleges stop taking people off the waitlist after July? Because I have some UK-bound friends who will know whether they've gotten into their UK schools in mid-July, but meanwhile have committed to a US school as an insurance | |
