I called Nova today, and one lady received my phone call told me that I am actually accepted, but there are no empty spots left so I have to wait another month to hear back from them. So, I was very confused what she told me and I asked her "so, that means i am wailisted, right??" And they said "no, you are not waitlisted, you are accepted, but we do not have any empty spot right now, so you have to wait" What the hack is this?? I do not get it. Have you guys ever heard about this kind of situation?? Is this what we call "alternate list"??

I think they've sent out acceptances and not received a deposit (or decline) from everyone yet. So, you just have to wait till the deposit deadline clears for the previous batch. Good luck.👍

I have heard of it, but only at Nova. At the interview, they said it was a good thing we applied early because early acceptance means we're guaranteed a seat, whereas you might be out of luck if you apply later and get 'accepted' later. I guess how this differs from an alternate list, is that for some lists there is another review process of the pool of alternate applicants. Although, I guess it would be the equivalent to a ranked alternate list, where you were at the very top.

I had my interview in January 4th and they told me I wil find out in the end of January. That means my batch should be Feb 1st and my previous batch was Jan 15th. So, I thought the deposit deadline was already cleared for the previous batch. That's why I was confused. I guess I have no hope at this point.

yes you have hope! They're just waiting for someone to pull out and go to a different school! The cycle is not over, people are still deciding and getting into their 1st choice schools.

Thank you for your replies. It is because I know some people having my batch are accepted in the end of January. That's why I was confused.
So, If I can't go to Nova this year, does that mean I can attend Nova next year (class of 2013) since I am actually accepted??

I just interviewed with NOVA few days ago and I was told that they will also rank the accepted ppl that are still waiting for a seat .. They are still interviewing so I am sure that they are predicting alot of ppl to decline their acceptance like last cycle. I m sure if you get an acceptance they will have to take you in for this cycle .. and everyone knows that NOVA dont mind having more students than usual 105 class size .. Congrats .. hope i get some good news soon !!!
