<p>They can accept waitlists earlier than May 1. its a numbers game. Also if you requested Financial Aid then its 2 numbers games. 1) do they have room and 2) do they have money.</p>

No Hooks or URM, Im Asian/Indian</p>
<p>Showed NO interest whatsoever in terms of actual contact or interview or anything. Iām surprised I got in.</p>
<p>My son got in- 32 ACT superscore, 3.8 GPA (UW)- very passionate about community service. Visited the campus and met with a faculty member in the Classics Dept.</p>
<p>should I treat waitlist a positive thing? Does this mean that I somehow meet washuās waitlist standards? Or do they waitlist everyone?</p>
<p>Decision: Rejected</p>
<p>Test scores: 2340 SAT, 34 ACT
GPA: 3.8 UW, 4.3 W
Interest: Applied to Moog (research fellowship, didnāt get it), visited through the Discovery Weekend last semester</p>
<p>Shocked and surprised, not sure how this happened. Will definitely try to appeal this.</p>
<p>waitlisted!

<p>@bcp - Iām shocked as wellā¦not sure how much an appeal is going to help, but unless you were arrested fairly recently, I literally have no idea what is upā¦</p>
<p>It just seems so random. Financial aid is probably a huge part of it.</p>
<p>@nirvana - Iām not exactly sure how many people they waitlist, but it seems like a lot of applicants. And you shouldnāt feel bad about being on it anyway. Reading other peopleās scores and as Iāve said a million times itās really unpredictable for WashU.</p>
<p>Waitlisted
2300 SAT, 3.7 UW GPA (10-11), 4.28 W GPA (10-11), 780 Math II, 750 Bio-M
Wash U wasnt very high on my list so I didnāt show any extra interest, didnāt apply for scholarships either. I was 90% sure I was going to be rejected, so Iām definitely happy with being waitlisted!</p>
<p>I was deferred from ED and got rejected regular. </p>
<p>Are there any people out there who applied to WashU ED and got deferred as well? Or there any who got deferred and were accepted RD? I kind of expected to get either a straight up acceptance or rejection, I doubt they wouldāve dragged it on saying āYou didnāt get in ED or RD, but thereās still a slight chanceā¦ā. Also, I needed financial aidā¦</p>
<p>Accepted to the Olin School of Business: 2340 SAT, 3.86 UW GPA (9-11), 4.28 W GPA (9-11), 800 Math II, 760 Chem

<p>This is totally random, but anyone else think that the little logo/picture thing on the top of the web browser tab thing (seen here: [Washington</a> University Admissions](<a href=āhttp://admissions.wustl.edu/Pages/default.aspx]Washingtonā>http://admissions.wustl.edu/Pages/default.aspx)) looks like a wrestler from the neck to the thighs wearing a green wrestling outfit and green armbands??</p>
<p>Confusing description, I know, and totally random, I know, but EVERY TIME I go on their website I think the same thingā¦</p>
