Do you guys think it's too late to apply?
@HurriedNippyPirate: partially yes, partially no. You should've probably shifted your spread down about 10-15 spots. Not trying to be rude but you were never going to get into the t14. t20 would be a reach already. applying in the 25-55 range is probably your sweet spot
@OutstandingImpartialKingfisher: it is absolutely too late to apply. You might get accepted but very unlikely to get money, and whatever money you might get is almost certainly less than you could end up with(after negotiating and all that) if you wait and apply early next cycle.

@WasabiPirates: do you know if W&M will always have scholarships available for need-based students or is that something that runs out as well? I'm just wondering if it's even possible if I will receive scholarships if I'm accepted off the waitlist.

@Pandally: There website WL FAQ says it varies on case by case basis. Probably depends how big the scholly was the person had who turned their seat down.
SteelersReignSupreme
22:31

Pandally
22:50
@SteelersReignSupreme: trueeee! We'll see how they handle the waitlist now that their second secret deadline is passed. Lol

SteelersReignSupreme

@Pandally: Ill be on.
Pandally
15:44
@SteelersReignSupreme: ayyy! Hopefully it will be informative and actually give some insight
@Pandally: I agree! Hopefully there are not tons of people on it, I would feel pretty hopeless.
Pandally

Do we think we'll see more WL movement in the next few days/week? During the information session on Monday, the dean said, "around May 1." Does today count as May 1?
My bet tmmrw and Monday!
Just my bet though
9:21
They started accepting people yesterday so i would assume there will be more movement between now and next week. 🤞🤞🤞

@mamabigbucks: May 1st is when they want the seat deposit so my guess is they will wait til post May 1st to see what their yield is looking like
Congrats @WoodChuck! Are you going to attend?
