<p>It really depends on out of the accepted pool of applicants, how many of those actually commit to the school. Each year that rate varies due to a number of factors. The only time people will be taken off the waitlist is if not enough people commit so that they are unable to hit the target number of students for the freshman class, so it’s really hard to gauge exactly how many people will be taken off because it varies. I think last year they took an unprecedented number of the waitlist (100+ i think, not exactly sure) but they have also been trying to increase the number of people on the waitlist so that they can control the way they reach their target number.</p>
