| Yeah, do they call you on the number that you wrote when you sent in your wait list acceptance? I gave my cell phone because I obviously don't want to miss the call! Also, like what time of the day do they call? | |

| Thank you for declining the offer radyland hahaha! It's not time to start freaking out yet. They only started calling people a few days ago, and as radyland demonstrates, not everyone they call is accepting admission. Also, people have between 3 days and a week to decide, so I would assume that factor causes some delay in the process. They can't call more people until the people they have already called give them an answer.
Do you think they conduct wait list activity on the weekends/Saturdays? | |

| Well, I got the email and they gave me 48 hours to decide... but then said that due to my app for finaid, I got 24 hours after that got sent out next week. That is what they probably meant, S_N | |
