GUEST STUDENT OF THE WEEK: Rohan is a freshman at Dartmouth (and loves it) having gotten in ED for the Class of 2023. He's here to debunk myths regarding admissions and student life at his school. ASK HIM ANYTHING!
Make sure to check out our May Checklists for HS Juniors and HS Seniors. Consult these quick resources to get you started on the process this month.
As we work to adjust to the current reality, make sure to check out these dedicated COVID-19 resources: our directory of virtual campus tours, our directory of extended deadlines, as well as the list of schools going test optional this fall.
Replies to: What waitlists are active? Who has closed their waitlists?
Greetings from Mount Holyoke College!
We are writing to students on our waitlist who have indicated that Mount Holyoke is their top choice college. It is likely that we will be able to make offers of admission from the waitlist – potentially as early as May 1. If you remain interested in joining the Class of 2023, please use the waitlist reply form to let us know. If you have already committed to another college, please take a moment to indicate that change as well so that we may narrow the list of possible candidates for admission to those who still want to attend Mount Holyoke.
Thank you for your patience as we continue to monitor commitments and interest in the Class of 2023.

Adding that at least some portion of Wustl and Purdue are engineering. So interesting.

Yield is hard to predict and it looks like so far a number of colleges were conservative in their admissions offers this year. As students apply to more and more colleges then yields generally are going to go down.
For the selective colleges on this list, my guess is they'll be pulling a small number over the next week or 10 days and then their classes will be complete.
We definitely had 2 GT offers, Davidson, Barnard, and a Duke offer off WL at my DD’s school the past week. That seems crazy to me before May 1st.
VT is closed.
