So I sent an email to Lucy about expectations going forward based on her previous experience and she hasn’t responded yet. I’ll update the forum when she does.
I will say this.
1. I checked the forum last year and no one said anything from May 1st-26th which is clearly not a good sign.
2. The reason they’re down to the middle tier at Columbia is because a lot of people who got accepted there and at ( Charleston or Greenville) are choosing the latter. This is also not good news for us.
3. I expected today to be news since yesterday was the last day for people to get back their deposits but surprisingly not. However, maybe the deposit wasn’t really enough of a big factor to rush people in their decision.
4. the only good news I can think of is that Charleston’s forum says that they haven’t accepted anyone off the waitlist yet. Meaning that if someone is a waitlist there and an accepted here, then when they do begin to accept waitlisted applicants in Charleston then hopefully a few people from here will choose Charleston over Greenville.
5. Whatever happens happens. Clearly Greenville for me is my dream school. I fell in love with everything there. From their program to their faculty. It’s at this point where we just hope that in some way or another we get a spot. I’m just hoping that at least the top tier gets accepted, because I feel like everyone on that tier is too close, which makes the rejection even that much more hurtful. I’ll remain hopeful and optimistic tho. Also, I’ll definitely update you guys about the email or if I get off the waitlist (hopefully).
