<p>Oberlin left a message for my S at the end of the day today, saying they had some “news” and to call tomorrow. Sounds like–could it be–the waitlist decisions have begun? S was denied at Wesleyan, Vassar and Carleton, but Oberlin was in his top 4! He was accepted at Occidental and waitlisted at Macalester and Colorado College as well. He is going to be thrilled if he gets off the waitlist, although we have grown very fond of Oxy, the only school that accepted him, and offered him full tuition scholarship as well! I hope Oberlin can match that!
S sent in a statement to Oberlin last week, with some updates, saying why Oberlin was his first choice.</p>
