I was offered a spot off the waitlist today for the Waterloo campus! I am giving myself a few days to think about it before making a decision as I have other OOP schools to consider. To address some things others have brought up on here: - I received my original waitlist email at 8:18am EST on May 12 and my name is near the end of the alphabet - I ranked Waterloo second - I have until June 3 to respond I'll let you guys know if I decide to decline. Best of luck to you all! -
