Wow didn't receive any email... expecting the worst
 
Also WL. I remember someone quoting some numbers as to how many WLs Dr. Rivera said they give out, and how much movement there is..anyone remember?
 
WL as well. They say the waist list is significantly smaller than in past years, does that mean we can expect more movement..?
 
Got the Post-II R which hurts... But I just got an II 20 minutes ago so that helps I guess?
 
Post-II R ;( Can't say I didn't expect this LOL but anyways, congrats to everyone who got the A and good luck to everyone who got the WL!!!

If I recall from last year, I believe there was 20-30 of the class filled from the waitlist. However, this number also depends on how many Acceptances were given this year versus last year. You'll need to verify from last year's thread, but I think they gave out about 100-110 A's first pass.

During the interview I thought I remember Dean Rivera saying that their waitlist is typically about 250 and about 50 come off of it. If anyone else can corroborate that lemme know. Its been a minute since my interview its possible I got that wrong. I don't know how much stock to put into the whole "our waitlist is significantly smaller this year" thing cuz if they accepted more people then it may have no affect at all on the odds of getting off of it.

Asked my Kid and they thought they remembered that their class is about 20 off WL. Again, feel free to read last year’s thread, it much better tracked these numbers.
 
Did you both guys get it at the same time? Or are they going out one by one?..😬
 
Accepted MSTP- interview dates 9/21 and 9/23.

Edit: Email received at 10:52 AM Pacific. I'm sitting in disbelief right now. Any way to cross-reference that this wasn't a mistake??

Does anybody know if in the past years there have been two main acceptance waves for MSTP here?

From my interviews at many schools, it sounded like schools in general were more inclined to send in smaller, multiple waves even if they did not before, since they had no emperical data on what the yield rate would be like with covid and increased applications and kids applying to more places than usual. To avoid things like over enrollment.

please explain. As of today, they still have Very Little idea of yield rate. PTE is when they get a real idea.

That is my point. They dont know. Before, they knew approximately, so they could give out more As based on that expectation. Now, they have little idea, so some schools I heard were giving out a smaller wave, waiting for response, then sending out a little more, then waiting for response. Obviously, this is what they do normally, but I mean is smaller chunks, therefore more waves of smaller number of acceptances.

No, you are trying to justify multiple small waves, however the multiple small waves will all have PTE marked by Acceptee's with almost zero attrition. My point is that if it is before PTE, it really doesn't matter whether it's one big wave or multiple small waves, the total As would be the same.
 
Has anyone who was accepted in October heard about full CoA merit scholarships?
