2018 Wait List Decisions--Please Add for Everyone's Benefit

Haverford notified waitlisted applicants on May 7th that their class was full. I don’t know if they pulled from the waitlist or not. My child was offered a spot on an “extended waitlist” over the summer in case someone withdraws or changes their minds, etc. We accepted the extended waitlist spot just in case but are moving ahead with other plans where we put a deposit. An admissions counselor at a college where I work told me that “summer melt” is a real phenomenon and that some schools can lose 10-20 students over the summer due to various factors. So I was told to keep my fingers crossed and hold on to the sliver of hope, but also to move on and make plans for the college where we deposited.
