I work in the admissions office. I will be very honest with you: your chances are slim to none. This is absolutely no reflection on you as a person or a student–it’s just that we have hundreds of people on the waitlist and at MOST five spots will open up. In the last five years, we’ve taken fewer than ten people off the waitlist. Last year we took none.”</p>
<p>So I’m afraid I’m not “way off base” but I wish you good luck nonetheless.</p>
