What happens if (you are on the waitlist and) they call (to offer you a seat) and you don't pick up? I am concerned about that because I get a lot of spam calls and random calls that I may not pick up or return if they do not leave me a voicemail. If someone can just confirm that they leave a voicemail or email the offer too, and do not just cease to consider you once you have not picked up, that would be great please as I am so anxious these days.
This school is my last shred of hope to get in this cycle and I feel like I do not have it in me to apply next cycle or do a masters that I am not actually interested in just for the sake of the application. I also genuinely want to go here. But maybe it is for the best if it does not work out. Just sharing all of this because if anyone else has been feeling despair, you are not alone. Anyway, I am hanging on to hope for now and I hope you all hear good news as well.
Also does anyone have recommendations for re-applying? Should I call and see what schools did not like about my application? Should I update the things I wrote in ADEA or keep it mostly the same and add more (I wish I had more to add I would not dread reapplying as much :/ )?
