Same for my son. What’s interesting is that 29% off the waitlist over three years includes Fall 2022, when they overenrolled and only took 11 of 4,000 from the waitlist.

Yeah. Very similar. Son was (irrationally, I guess) counting on UW.

Also, what letter? Is that what came in from the portal.

Yeah.

write to the uni inquiring about the scholarship then. cannot hurt u now

I did, but I was expecting it to be released at the same time as the admissions decision.

Could have been. They do not contact unsuccessful applicants i think
