My best friend got into Duke(attending), Carnegie Mellon, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, UMich, and UVa, and yet he still got waitlisted by WUSTL. I don’t know why they’re doing it that way, but we must take into consideration that they need to protect their yield. However, I am very sure that a lot of the people they waitlisted (even those with great stats etc.) would love to go to WUSTL… So that’s something they need to put into perspective, I guess.
