Waitlisted...now what?

[JohnAdams12]

<p>someone should call Hamilton on Monday and clarify this:</p>

Sorry… </p>

<p>Having contacted the admissions office, I received a response email as followed:</p>

<p>"At this point, it doesn’t look like we will be in a position to offer any spots to people on our wait list, especially students needing financial aid. All of our financial aid has been spent on our deposited students, so if financial aid is important in your thinking process, then you probably should turn your attention to other schools.</p>

<p>Best of luck to you."</p>

<p>Sorry for most of the waitlisted applicants, especially those who were seeking financial aid…

</p>

So, as opposed to what the Hamilton financial aid office said recently, it is NOT need blind for its waitlist - same as in previous years.

first time posting on CC, though I’ve been reading the threads for quite a while.</p>

<p>@Cohen: I had my guidance counselor call Hamilton after I was waitlisted. According to her, Hamilton does not take financial consideration into account when deciding who to take off of the WL.</p>

<p>Looked at some of your past posts - are you international? That would probably warrant you getting that response.
