Waitlist Thread!

Post here if you're waitlisted!
Ugh I hate being on the waitlist... anyone know how many people are on the list this year and if the list is ranked?

Can someone provide information about how many people are usually offered a spot on the wait list and how many actually accept it? Also, is it ranked?

ughhhh annoying I wish they'd have just been merciful and rejected me right away - since they'll probably offer like 20 waitlist spots.

I personally think I need to get the courage to reject my waitlist position.

I really want to stop thinking about the whole process, and don't want to bother sending extra letters, recs, bla bla bla.
Especially when the waitlist acceptance rate is even smaller than the normal acceptance rate.

Ugh... why won't Princeton just answer our questions now with an FAQ instead of sending it in the mail

What are the odds of landing a spot from the wait list?
