I heard they accept some students for the winter semester instead. Is that a possibility? Also, are there others who are also waiting with no update on the applicant portal?

There were some waitlist admits on other sites that were given the Winter quarter start. This was in early May.

I’m still waiting as well, no updates. Applied for ecology.

No update here either. Could that be a good thing?

I have no idea. All I know is this very slow process is very distressing and promotes indecisiveness. I wish they would get this over with one way or another.

Is it possible to extend week response time to WL offer?

That would be something to discuss with admissions.

My son is also still on the waitlist. BS

I emailed admissions and they said they would be done with waitlists MID july. I am also still on the waitlist and didn’t receive an email to check my portal.

Still on the waitlist here too. So frustrating.

Very frustrating - but don’t give up hope. Both of my kids know of friends who have given up their spots recently, so there’s got to be another round or two of acceptances.

Tuition and residence payments are due soon for semester schools. Deposits have already been paid for SIR, residence, orientation, etc… Unless an acceptance email comes by Friday, it is going to be of little value. The process is broken; hopefully they will fix it before my younger child graduates from high school.

I’m not a very religious man, but I have been praying, to whatever could possibly help, that I’ll get off the waitlist.
