I think for those of you who WILL go to RPI if admitted from the waitlist SHOULD go ahead and let the college know this, and at that point also maybe sed in supplementary materials - another rec, a research paper, an award received since sending the app in. Even if they don’t use it, it shows an interest.
Guys LOTS of high stats were waitlisted and I wonder if they fill their open spots from the list based on profile. Maybe if an international drops off, you will have another chance. Or if an EE student drop off, they will look to replace it with another EE student with a similar profile. Since they claim they are not ranked, I don’t know how else they can narrow things down from a waitlist of over 3000 students (from their own stats from last year) It boggles my mind how they can go again through all these applicants each time a space opens - but they say they have not ranked them so…
