<p>I have been waitlisted at WashU, CMC, Carleton.
What does this tell me? Am I competitive enough to get into the other schools I applied for?
Can you accept a waitlist for multiple schools?
Thanks</p>
<p>It tells you that you’ve been waitlisted at several very competitive schools. </p>
<p>It’s hard to say if you’re competitive enough for the other schools to which you applied without knowing where else you’ve applied. </p>
<p>Yes, you can accept a place on the waitlist at more than one school. It’s good to choose one to pursue, though, in terms of, say, writing a letter of interest.</p>
<p>Don’t expect anything from these schools; Wash U is notorious for its long waitlist. You can get more information on waitlist acceptance rates from the schools’ common data sets. </p>
<p>You may have been unlucky, or these colleges may have been the wrong fit for you. Focus on the future, and don’t waste your time worrying.</p>
