<p>Hey,</p>
<p>I got waitlisted at 3 schools - Duke, Johns Hopkins, and Columbia.
Couple of questions:</p>
<p>1) I applied Biomedical Engineering to all the schools - am I waitlisted for that major (since it is one of the most competitive majors, especially at Johns Hopkins) ?</p>
<p>2) I want to call the admissions offices of the schools - how do I tell them that I am still really interested?</p>
<p>I’m also thinking of sending like a one-page supplementary info sheet…</p>
<p>bump - 10 char?</p>
<p>It usually depends on what the waitlist letter says. If the waitlist letter does not mention, call the school and ask.</p>
<p>As for confirming your interest, it’s recommended to send a letter briefly explaining why you are interested in the school, why it is a good match for you and highlight on recent achievements. </p>
<p>This year is a heavy waitlist year and colleges may have to dig deep into their waitlist after May from what I have heard. Good luck!</p>
