UChicago Class of 2020 Applicant Thread

@blessupman lol I got waitlisted from both Chicago and Washu too
Ahhhhhhhhhhh I’m dying

No limit…a college can’t force you to go if they pull your name off the waitlist

Not like ED

Waitlisted

Waitlisted. I was 100% expecting a rejection, so I’m honestly glad. Does anyone know how many people UChicago waitlists in the RD round? And what the acceptance rate for them is? It’s weirding me out how many people on this thread are waitlisted too.

Waitlisted. Is there anything I could do to potentially improve my chances of getting off the waitlist?

Waitlisted boyos

@jk1998 same fam and caltech too

Waitlisted. Well, at least I can say I didn’t get rejected… I thought UChicago was gonna end my streak of acceptances, but I get to live another day :stuck_out_tongue: Oh well CONGRATS to those (very few) of you that got in!!

Last years “Wait-list” thread had a post from someone stating that their guidance counselor was told that the wait list was in excess of 1,000. Pretty ridiculous

I think we see a higher wait listed percentage on here because CC users are typically qualified applicants.

Most of us got waitlisted. At least we still have hope

Lemme join the train. Waitlisted.

those of you who got waitlisted - what’s your message like?

I think they personalised it…

Would you guys be interested in me starting a waitlist thread?

yea waitlist too

@soph1112 go ahead :’)

@cherryredgirl I doubt they personalized to due to the sheer number of people they waitlist

:(( rejected
