V13W5 Posted May 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 isnt may 30th the earliest that waitlist offers are being sent out anyways? I think offers started going out 2 days before the accept/decline deadline last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meddream16 Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I think offers started going out 2 days before the accept/decline deadline last year. That's awesome!!! While I am very grateful that I've gotten this far and was waitlisted, I'm so nervous....couple of days earlier feels like couple of weeks.

Bcemslayer Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Booze. That's what is getting me through the next couple of days Complete abandon of responsibility and relationships and Netflix in lieu of that is the responsible way that I'm dealing with waiting.

Thermophilus Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thank you for sharing your admissions decisions with the rest of us. Trust me when I say that this helps relieve some anxiety of being on the waitlist I have a couple of acquaintances that are declining offers in order to attend other programs and I really hope you all get good news very soon. In the meantime, overuse of alcohol to deal with stress can be a truly slippery slope. I don't want to be "that guy", but the statement made about increased rate of alcohol consumption as a result of reading these forums and the stress of admissions has me concerned--maybe I'm just being a dork. Anyway, no judgment; feel free to PM me if you're not just joking/enjoying yourself and are struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, this wait isn't nearly as anxiety-inducing for me as the initial e-mails were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bcemslayer Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 Will we receive an email when waitlist offers go out, even if we didn't get an offer that round? Or will we only receive an email if we are offered a position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pokemaster Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Have we ever thought of the possibility that no one from this entire forum got offers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meddream16 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 That's always a possibility, but the chances are that people on this forum know of applicants outside this forum and they would post if anyone got in from the waitlist. So I'm just assuming that it hasn't opened yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ~50-70 people decline offers each year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
