What are the chances of being accepted if you get on the waitlist?

<p>Me and my friend planned on going to BU so badly, but he got waitlisted, what do you think his chances are of making it?</p>

<p>I think that there’s a good chance because a lot of people who get accepted don’t end up going. Good Luck!!!</p>

<p>Make sure your friend shows that he is still very interested in BU. Visit (if possible), write a letter showing your interest, have your guidance counselor write a letter saying how awesome you are, send in any current grades that are available. I heard one of the admissions directors giving that advice to a waitlisted student the other day, so that’s straight from the deciding mouth</p>

<p>You can have my spot! :P</p>

<p>I got waitlisted too. BU’s waitlist letter was LAME!! Very dull, sterile, and unhelpful. I thought BC’s waitlist letter was much nicer and more informative. BU kept very vague and in the dark. It really turned me off from the school even more. If accepted from the waitlist, I doubt I would want to go anyway…</p>
