@IckySassyRay: not necessarily— last year I got my A at the very end of June, but they at least had most people on a waitlist way before then—idk wtf they are doing this year
Anyone think they will give more schollys out to accepted students now that so many have withdrawn

12:14
has anyone called or emailed for updates?
12:54
I called a few weeks ago and they kinda just said that they’ll get to us when they can
12:55
But I find it very hard to believe that they haven’t been able to give me, who applied back in November, an answer. Same with the ppl in here who applied back in October or such. The fact we haven’t even gotten a waitlist is insane
