So you are waitlisted at Stanford

Logically, it makes sense to avoid cross admits, because the point of a waiting list is to fill any remaining spots in a class with people who want to be there. I think in most cases, people would choose other HYPSM schools over stanford (i mean, I have a lot of friends who got into all of them, and none of them are looking at stanford…). but yeah. they probably try to choose the people who would be most likely to accept admittance off the waitlist.
