Soooo...after all the essays and interviews I have been added to the waiting lists for PCO, SCO, and PUCO. They are all wonderful and a place in either of their programs would be awesome. I was wondering...anyone know the details for these lists like, how many are usually let in etc. So far I have only been ranked at PUCO and would really love to know who may be giving up seats there to see if I have a fighting chance. Any info in regarding this matter would be super appreciated!! Thank you all so much and congrats to those who have already been accepted!

How late did you apply???

 

[PhysicistRobin]

I applied a little after Christmas and interviewed at all these places in early Feb...

When i asked at my interview, sco said that last year they let 15 ppl or so in from the waitlist. But he thinks it's because they started a refund policy with their deposits. So they don't really have a trend yet.

Hmmmm...I dunno where I stand on their list but they said it's always fluctuating or something. Anyone know how many pacific averages on letting in waitlisters? That's the only list that I actually have an idea of where I stand...thanks!

Do you mind revealing your rank for PUCO? Just curious

 

[PhysicistRobin]

Pleaseeee does anyyyone have any info? And I can't seem to get PCO to respond to anything...

 

[Commando303]

Have you tried calling P.C.O., if they're not responding to your e-mail messages? I suppose a number of the schools are exceptionally busy, these days, as it's the end of (or close to the end of) the application cycle.

 

[PhysicistRobin]

Thanks for the suggestion! You're totally right but, naw I haven't tried calling yet. I'll def add that to tomorrows to-do list. Ill make to sure to keep everyone posted if I find out any updates about all of this!

I called PCO yesterday and asked how many people were on the list. The woman I was talking to said she didn't know . =/

 

[PhysicistRobin]

Sooo PCO responded to my email this week and...their waiting list is bot ranked...and when someone gives up a seat they sift through the waiters and pick the "best" from the pool. This waiting game is killing me!...I had a nightmare about it last night...usually every finals week I always get a weird eyelid twitch thing, not visible to others just annoying to me, from stress....but it came early this year by way of waitlist letter #1...le siiighh!

 

[cheriemousse]

yeahhhhh. so may 15th should be a big day since that's the deadline for the 2nd deposit for PCO? *crosses fingers*

 

[PhysicistRobin]

Dude I'm in the sammeeeee boat! I did find out today that I scooted up a little bit in PUCO's waiting line. So yeahhh... all my appendages are crossed now in hopes to see a lot more scooting...

Just called PCO this morning and the admission said "...at this point there are about 50 students on standby..." I am guessing chance of getting into PCO from the standby list is slim now, since the refund date has already passed and the list is still long. 🙁

 

[cheriemousse]

hmm....i don't feel so good now
