nycislife
15:26

Almost all pushes I have seen from other schools are either due to not having as many decisions out as they want, less people depositing than they expected, or due to something that disrupted the admissions office during the cycle (natural disasters, changing leadership, acts of god, etc.) So probably something in the same vein as those three.
20:18
or moving it to right after rankings come out? maybe hoping their rank goes up and more As decide to deposit?
20:18
just spitballing
20:19
I already have a deposit down somewhere else but I'm still gonna send a loci on Friday

@peepzilla where did you end up depositing?

You can PM me if you want
Does anyone know how many people typically get accepted off the waitlist?
nycislife
16:08
@Peepzilla: did you already sent a LOCI before or will this be your first one for Nova
17:08
@HopefulFutureStudent2023: looking in past years it seems like only a handful but obviously since this is self reported there are probably a lot more
Any WL movement so far?
nycislife

i actually got a call admissions, and they said they were calling waitlisted applicants to get information about the other schools they applied to, as well as what kind of scholarships they want from villanova
nycislife
17:55
from admissions*
nycislife
17:55

nycislife
