Why might I have been waitlisted?

My tip is to read the waitlist thread so you understand the process and what is involved.

No one can tell you why you were waitlisted, because no one here knows. Waitlisting means you were a competitive candidate. The problem is that there are many more competitive applicants than spots at those schools.

If you apply again “cast a wide net”, which means apply to more than 3 schools, and apply to some with much higher acceptance rates (e.g. 50%)
