I was waitlisted here in December after my Interview late November. I am remaining very hopeful as I loved this school! Spoke with Admissions and was given some insightful tid-bits that I thought some of you on here may also benefit from! this is almost verbatim from the email Ms. Porter sent me.

- The waitlist is not ranked (so I guess they are either pulling from it in order of appearance or something.)
- Your status could change to accepted anytime between the time you are put on the waitlist and the first day of orientation. Most moves occur in the beginning/middle of May
- ANY open seats are filled by waitlisted applicants only!
- Last year over 50 were moved off the waitlist.

If anyone knows how many people are on the waitlist right now that would give me more of an idea how hopeful or not 50 people moving is. I hope we all get in!

I wonder if anyone has gotten selected off the wait list already? They do mention we could get accepted anytime between now and class starting.

Does anyone know anything about being WL'ed at the Knoxville campus, and the possibility of getting in?
