<p>Although I got into BU, I was waitlisted @ case western, Lehigh, CMC, and scripps. So I know how you guys feel! It sucks to be waitlisted especially at your top choice or a school you think you’d get into for sure, and sadly, the odds of getting off the waitlist are against you… my advice would be to stay on the waitlist, and ask your college counselor to write a nice email to BU admissions telling them how much to love the school and that it is your first choice. You, too, can write a letter to the admissions office telling them what you like about BU, and maybe updating them on the more recent successes in your life. Good luck!!</p>
<p>and @ headingsouth, I think perhaps BU knew that with your stats, you’d get into somewhere better than BU and go there instead. It might be “tufts syndrome” where they take the middle 50% rather than the best.</p>
