4 ppl got off the waitlist yesterday and none were on the forums - I think the handful of ppl here might be too small a % of the 300+ long waitlist

Also, Wendy usually sends these out later in the day, up till 6pm so I wouldnt discount today as over until then

I just got an offer!!!! Maybe I got @TheFlyGuy's offer!

 

Time stamped 3:33pm EST

Niagara Campus

 

I had already arranged for a Master's program, I'd lost hope but here we are. Good luck to all of you!!!

More waitlist offers = more chance we will get off the waitlist

An interesting analogy, may I say. When a tsunami is about to strike, the tide retracts into a seemingly calm moment of stagnation. However, this transient tranquility is overshadowed by a continuous 40-feet-high column of water striking the inland. Like this, the offers will come for you In the coming days. Good luck and stay positive everyone

Would schools email you if the waitlist ends once the class is filled?

yeah I believe I read in previous forums that they email when the class is full

[guacamole17 2]

do you think that they have already sent out most waitlist offers?

I personally don't think so. I feel like we would've seen more posts, since there aren't as many when compared to last year's. so I really hope a big wave comes tomorrow... that is assuming that they didn't over offer

Hey congrats! Niagara’s lovely, imo the best campus; good luck in the fall!

Best of luck today to everybody, we all deserve the best and even if luck isn't on our side i'm sure we will all get through anything life throws at us!

[Dr. Doofenshmirtz 1]

I believe last year or the year before there was some waitlist offers on the tuesday (1 year ago yesterday) , then there was no movement on the wednesday, and then another wave on the thursday. So it is possible no movement happens until tomorrow. 

[seewhathappens 80]

I'm starting to think that it doesn't matter when they were sent in previous years.  Fact is, there's been no real pattern to it, and it can come at any time - though they do tend to come in the afternoon...

Since they do rolling, I doubt Wendy goes "Hmm, what did I do last year - gotta leave a pattern for the PM101 kids".
