I know it's really early, but has anyone heard about any wait list movement yet?

I'm assuming if you're on the waitlist you can't get a scholarship app...if they pull you into the class, tho, do you get a chance then to do an app, even if it's later? hmmm
So here's my dilemma...
I really like this school. The students and faculty are incredibly nice, and I'm really impressed by all the materials they sent after my acceptance. My problem is that another school has offered me a bigger scholarship. Is it a faux pas to call up Mizzou and ask them to match the other school's offer? I like the other school just fine, but going to Mizzou would be more convenient for a variety of reasons. Plus, truth be told I think I like Mizzou better. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Did you already received the award letter from MU? If the answer is "no", which I am assuming is the case, I would wait until you have received the award letter. I think you can try to bargain after you see what have been offered to you, but knowing schools have many applicants on the wait list, I doubt that you will be successful.
I have actually already received a scholarship offer from Mizzou. Maybe I should just grow a pair and give them a call...
Hey, I actually called the OME today. They said they have only taken 2 off of the wait list so far. May 15th needs to get here faster!
Did they tell you how far they were on the waitlist? I'm in the top third, and just waiting for that phone call!!Got in off the wait list today!

Is Missouri pass/fail?
The wait list sure seems to be moving awfully slow this year. According to last year's thread, they were already into the middle third of the list less than a week after May 15th, but this year it has been more than a week since the 15th and they are not even through the top third yet. I'm starting to get a little nervous, I expected to hear something by now, being in the top third.

I saw in the article where they are "updating" the PBL labs, as well. Any idea what they are doing to update them, or are they just adding room for the next 8 of us?
I got a phone call this morning that I got taken off the waitlist! I have some thinking to do. Does anyone know if I took a trip down to MU again to take a second look (I am OOS), that someone there would be willing to show me around the school again and sell me more on Columbia?
Also, does MU have a computer requirement this year? I think I remember that the students who gave us a tour at the interview all had the same computer. I may be wrong though. Thanks!
Any particular questions or concerns you have about the city or the school that maybe I could answer for you? Feel free to PM me if it's something you don't want to ask on the forum.
Hey all-- I am trying to set up my student email account through Outlook... and when I go to the set up a new account, it gives me this error message:
"Welcome ------------. (Student)
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle error '80040e0c'
Command text was not set for the command object.
/outlooklive/global.inc, line 292"
Does anyone know what is wrong? Could it be that I am trying to do this on a Mac?

Not a Mac problem. I have a Mac and it works grrreat at Mizzou. Check out the site PD2B mentioned -- it's great for getting computers (and phones) connected to Mizzou's internet and email.
