May 15th through June is the hot period I would presume.

Maybe because their yield this year is higher than expected. So no waitlist movements?!
I'm just kidding. Thou looking at last year's thread, no one reported getting pulled off the waitlist until July.
Shoot. In 2012 they took in people on the 16th. I wonder why they're taking so long.

Perhaps the dean is taking his time, waiting for the top tier waitlist shuffle to calm down. I have a friend who was on their waitlist but just got accepted to his first choice last week, so this must be happening with their accepted applicants as well.
Otherwise it would be somewhat unconscionable to form a waitlist of 170 only to dip into it like five people.
It was a little hard to judge and you should take note that I'm usually terrible at judging these thing, but I'd say at least 100, probably closer to 150. Other relevant piece of information may include the fact that ~385 email accounts have been shared the housing information they sent out. However, this includes things like "women's team swim list," so idk what that really means. Also, the FB group has 256 members, but I know people who either purposely did not join/left because there was some "come sublet MY apartment for the summer" spam present. There are some current M1's in that group.
Take all that for what you will, hopefully it's at least somewhat useful. Good luck to everyone waiting, hope to see you here in August!
Thanks for the info!
Personally, if I was a dean I would wait at least a week...
The waitlist has moved at least one spot according to the waitlist support group thread

Did anything ever happen to people on the WL? Has movement been nonexistent this year?
I haven't heard anything
Well, Julius, Tred and myself are the most active. If one hears anything on the boards, it will probably be from one of us. And I hope one of us does make it!
Does anyone see this on the status page?
"Sorry, you are not approved to enter this site."
"Sorry, you are not approved to enter this site."
Yeah I got that too and I'm an admitted student. I'm guessing they have moved on for the current cycle of applicants.
In one of their emails they mentioned that you wouldn't be able to access the site anymore.
You might have better luck in this year's thread.
