I’m sorry, evilcake; I know you probably don’t want to hear this from me, but I
really do know how it feels to see others around you getting good news about colleges while you are left to wait. I had the same situation not only with this waitlist, but with my first EDI rejection where a friend of mine, who also applied EDI, was accepted.

you’re happy for them, yet you also can’t help but be jealous and, as a result, you begin to think more negatively. up until a few hours ago I viewed my chances of getting off the Emory waitlist as all but gone, but, low and behold, good news actually came. my advice is to hold out because you can never really know what is in store for you. I also recommend e-mailing your district representative and giving them an update on your high school activities.

best of luck :)
