I chose Kenyon over Colby, paying 3k for Kenyon and 9k for Colby. I'm having second thoughts, even though they offered me more money. I'm still on the waitlist here, and I know I'd choose Colorado over either of them, but money plays a huge role for me. What are the chances that I'll pay less than 10k off the waitlist??

Does anybody know what the most financial aid received off the waitlist is??

hopeim,
this year is tough for finaid at a most schools. still, i expect if they do accept you they will come close to meeting your efc. that said, i hear that 70% of fall's freshmen are paying full tuition, and last year the "yeild" on accepted students matriculating was a huge number. the result of that was that a huge percentage of freshmen started the year 3 to a 2-person room. i also suspect few if any came off the waitlist. good luck, cc is an awesome school, but so is kenyon!

I was waitlisted by CC too, but I know my chance to off the wl is very small, especially when I am an international student. I already sent my deposit to another school. However, if CC accepts me, certainly I will attend superb CC

I know that for the incoming freshman class at CC in 2007 there were people who got in off the waitlist and received finanacial aid.

actually, i'd say chances are pretty good. in my college book it says that cc accepted 43% of the waitlist. i dont know, i still doubt that i'd get much f.a., it's just such a sick school i wish i could go.

The waitlist stats are available at Colorado College. It is nowhere near 42%!
