yeah the counselor i called was the correct counselor-i called the office and confirmed that she was the one assigned to my file. thanks anyway! i think this year just isn't the best year to be on the wait list.
i think today after school i might call the admissions office and ask if they know if they're going to the wait list yet. if anyone else calls before me, please post what they say.
"We don't have any updates on the waitlist just yet. It will likely be another week before we determine how many students we will be calling from the waitlist. Sit tight for now (easier said than done, I know!)."
Got an email from the dean of admissions today explaining how the waitlist works. It said students will be notified throughout the month of may if they are going to be accepted. Does that mean that they are for sure taking students off of it?
Thanks gamechanger for posting the info from admissions. To me, it sounds like they definitely plan on using the WL. To what extent and for how many spots, who knows, but I am still hopeful for all of you. Hang in there. Good luck.
On the email, it also said that if you have not yet visited Emory, you will be given 7 days to make your decision. I think that they will probably go to the waitlist since the rmail was sent out.
"Typically, we offer admission to wait-listed students throughout the month of May.
If you're offered admission on either campus, you'll have three days to accept and pay a nonrefundable enrollment deposit. If you need to make your first campus visit before deciding, we'll offer you seven days to finalize your plans. After your visit, you will then need to make your decision about attending.
Each campus will let you know by letter and email when we’ve officially ended our consideration of students on the wait list. We do our best to conclude wait list activity by June 1."
