Congrats!! When/was your PI contacted?
 
Seems like they’re offering up spots as soon as they come up considering there were 2 people who left the groupme and two people accepted off the WL, so fingers crossed more to come after today!!
 
do we know when they might release next? I'm kinda like what if there are just no more spots left...

No idea, but I'd imagine that they would need some time to deliberate on picking people off the waitlist depending on who and how many people rescinded their acceptances. There could also be more movement down the line if people get pulled off the waitlist from places like harvard etc and decide to go there instead. I think with such a small program, it is probably pretty difficult to guess when and how much movement there is going to be. I think that the best we can do now is wait and hope for the best
 
Does anyone know when the waitlist shuffle typically ends? Not specific to CCLCM, just for the general application process. Thank you!!

I think it is highly dependent on the school, but generally the most amount of movement is in May with some in June and even less in July. Technically, schools can have movement all the way up to the beginning of classes. However, with CCLCM starting in July (significantly earlier than most programs), this timeline is a bit more truncated.
 
Hello everyone, I have a question for current CCLCM students, not related to the waitlist discussion but this is the only place I can ask anonymously.

I am committed to enroll to CCLCM this July, however I'm afraid that something that happened recently will jeopardize my acceptance. I was spending time with a friend the other day at her apartment, and at one point she went into the bedroom to smoke a joint (door closed). I was in the next room, but when she came out afterwards the weed smell was soooo strong and now I'm worried about failing the drug test they give at orientation. If it's a urine test I know I'll be fine but I'm worried specifically about the hair test. So current students: what sort of test is it?

Lol. You are fine! Just smelling some secondhand weed is not going to do anything.
 
Dean Essman said on the CWRU thread that the enrollment situation is stable in the College program, with a spot being filled here and there... does this mean that chances of more WL movement are slim from now on?
 
Long shot I guess but does anyone know the II acceptance rate? I just rec. an II for this year's cycle (2021-2022) and am wondering about my chances here - obviously would be a fever dream to have any opportunity. Also if anyone remembers the interview/interview season and has any tips they feel strongly about I would be more than happy to borrow some wisdom! Hope everyone is doing alright 🙂

20% - they accept probably 40 to 50 out of 250 interviewed
