Are we just going to quote songs now? lol I feel we could make it a fun game to pass time.

Is that a song? Haha! I had no idea

 

[allygator13]

We're just cool like that lol and I got discombobulated. I was thinking of the song Killing Me Softly. I'm just silly.

No change past few days... Annoyed but also maybe relieved?

I'm happy it hasn't changed. I think they only update when they get mail in, so yay for us!

 

[allygator13]

Not gonna lie... I had a dream last night that I got off the waitlist at LSU haha. When I got the email today about the alternate list, I almost had a mini-heart attack until I opened it and it wasn't any exciting information

I felt the same way! I was like "OMG! They emailed me!" and then once I started reading, that excitement faded into apathy.

Just checked the status system... Stressing out...

At least we're not IS. They only have 2 spots left. That would give me a panic attack.

 

[allygator13]

Truth! I like your optimism haha

 

[allygator13]

Twice in one day?! Kill me.

 

[cloverbug]

Woohoo! We're back down to 6 spots.

 

[allygator13]

Woohoo! We're back down to 6 spots.

I saw! Yay!!

 

[slfamzie]

I'm praying for you guys if it's any consolation!

 

[allygator13]

I'm praying for you guys if it's any consolation!

Aw, thanks!

 

[allygator13]

Is anyone else noticing that their math doesn't add up...? Lol

 

[cloverbug]

...yea it does. Or am I missing something from today?

 

[allygator13]

Today it's now up to 64/64 LA, 9/9 AR, and still 9/15 OOS but it says that 79/88 seats are filled.

 

[cloverbug]

Maybe they won't fully count them until they get deposits?

 

[cloverbug]

They've been calling, but not for me -.- this anxiety is killing me.

 

[allygator13]

They've been calling, but not for me -.- this anxiety is killing me.

Same. I give it until mid-May, that's when someone said they heard last year or the year before and they hadn't even been interviewed.

 

[allygator13]

Well, I'm annoyed. One less available OOS seat because they took one extra IS.

 

[cloverbug]

Well, I'm annoyed. One less available OOS seat because they took one extra IS.

What the heck?! They should at least call through their interviewees before making that decision.

 

[allygator13]

What the heck?! They should at least call through their interviewees before making that decision.

Yeah, I think it's pretty messed up.

 

[cloverbug]

Yeah, I think it's pretty messed up.

And now that all the spots are accepted, I'm a bit more annoyed. 2 left and I'm still waiting. I'm already out of luck for Iowa and WSU so I'm kinda depending on this and U of I lol.

 

[allygator13]

Same, except for me it's LSU and Auburn. And if not either of those, then I guess I'll be on my way to Grenada in the fall

 

[allygator13]

11/14 woot!

 

[allygator13]

Aaaaand back to 12. I hate the counter! Also apparently I'm the only one here anymore

 

[cloverbug]

No I'm here! I saw that today. Still no call. Boo

 

[allygator13]

Samesies

 

[allygator13]

I wonder how many waitlisters they've gone through so far

 

[cloverbug]

I wonder how many waitlisters they've gone through so far

Not enough lol

 

[allygator13]

Not enough lol

Haha, truth!

 

[equineconstant]

I'm still rooting for y'all!

 

[allygator13]

I'm still rooting for y'all!

Thanks @equineconstant I sent an email just now asking if they could tell me how far down the OOS alternate list they had gone so far, so maybe they will respond. I'll let you know @cloverbug !

Thanks! That'll be good to know.

Well, he pretty much didn't give me any information. This was his response:

We only have a couple of seats remaining at this point so movement down the alternate list is slow. We do not actually discuss exactly where we are on the alternate list as it relates to the applicant ranking, but I can say that we haven't moved much at this point.

Well, that's lame. They can't even say "we're in the 20's" or anything? Boo.

 

[allygator13]

I really just don't understand not telling people where they are on the list

 

[cloverbug]

Well you might have better luck because I'm taking my offer to Illinois! Good luck ally!

I just saw your post on the waitlist thread!! CONGRATS!!! So happy for you, I know how much you wanted Illinois!

 

[allygator13]

I'm gonna miss you around this thread though... Haha

 

[cloverbug]

I'm gonna miss you around this thread though... Haha

I'll come keep you company still lol

 

[Psorophoraferox]

Haha, yeah, we can't have you talking to yourself in here.

 

[allygator13]

Thanks guys

 

[equineconstant]

Well you might have better luck because I'm taking my offer to Illinois! Good luck ally!

Congrats, cloverbug!

 

[allygator13]

Does anyone know how long people pulled off the alternate list have to accept or decline the offer?
