I can't say how they're handling the list THIS year, at this point, but previously, the would re-evaluate waitlisters at adcom meetings, pulling some off as they went along. I doubt asking them how they're handling it now is really going to yield much of a satisfying answer....just sit tight kids!!

So u never know, but do not hold your breathe, their waitlist moves very little, and appearantly, according to my interviewers and janette herself, there was nothing wrong with my application, or interview. In fact they said both were very good. It left me mind boggled and till this day, I cannot understand why I was waitlisted and why I was not removed. So expect the worst in a big way. And if it happens, awsome.

They may have only taken a few last year, but it's all circumstantial. This year, there are 75 more seats to go around. Also, it all depends on how adamant the people who first got their applications in and were accepted here are about coming....sometimes people take that spot just to have one and then hold out to get pulled off the waitlist at their number 1 choice. So the applicant pool and their level of interest in the school really will affect how much the list moves.
