Hi,
I got on the waitlist of Lakeside, Bush, University Prep, Northwest, and The Downtown School.
I only got into Seattle Prep.
Do you think there are any chances of getting off the waitlist of any of the schools listed above? Can I do anything about it?
Everything you could possible want to know about wait lists is discussed on the 126 pages of this thread:

No one knows what anyone’s actual chances of getting off any wait list are, but you can assume they are very slim. The best advice is to move on with alternate plans. If you should happen to get off a wait list, great, but don’t plan on it
Update: Got off the waitlist at the downtown school. Because they gave me more financial aid than Seattle Prep, I accepted their offer.
