For any questions or discussion regarding waitlists, such as how to write LOCIs. For specific school waitlist discussion, it's recommended to use their school specific thread (if it exists) for organizational purposes. If the school's thread doesn't exist, feel free to use here.
Results, such as getting accepted off of waitlists, should still go in their respective school specific threads and/or #👻-the-medium-place.

Where is my UC Hicago waitlist

This might be a stupid question, but I got waitlisted for UCLA and I know my chances are astronomically low, but I wanted to do anything I can to stand out and show my commitment as it has been my dream school. I already submitted the LOCI when it was due like a week or two ago, but during my research on how to best write one, I found some people recommending contacting your regional AO just to say hello and express continued interest and say that if they were excepted, they would 100% go. Is this even worth doing? Would it do anything at all? I don't want to come off as annoying either but just trying to do everything I can. Thanks so much for any advice

They admitted a lot less this year. If they predicted yield rate wrongly then it might work
And even if yield rate stays same it's around 30 from waitlist
Although being international makes it much less likely to get in from waitlist
hoary viper
Although being international makes it much less likely to get in from waitlist
think this holds true for every school
grave aurora
They admitted less because of astronomical yield rates in previous years tho 😭
rustic badge
But in the same way, if you didn't intend to take internationals from waitlist, why waitlist too many
grave aurora
But even then MIT wl as intl is cracked so congrats!
rustic badge
I know 5-10 international who got waitlisted
rustic badge
They admitted less because of astronomical yield rates in previous years tho 😭
Yea but I feel like it was because of pandemic
I don't really know what exactly affected it
But it's not really normal for it to get +15% yield rate at the beginning of pandemic
3 years ago it was aorund 70, 2 years ago it was 86, last year it was 84
I believe and hope it will be around 80 or less this year
And they admitted 1250. 80% yield rate means 100 waitlist admission

But even then MIT wl as intl is cracked so congrats!
Thanks. Also congrats for you and good luck for waitlist

Any updates for cmu waitlist?

was just looking through the columbia 2026 waitlist thread and i think columbia's waitlist procedure last year went something like this:
also this all happened on may 13th 2022, doesnt seem like those on the extended wl ended up getting offers as they never updated the thread lol
also based off of class of 2025 profile and statistics published at the time, columbia admitted 137 off of the waitlist but it could totally be a fluke coz it was kind of still a covid year, cannot estimate c/o 2026 because no stats of total admitted students are available as of yet

the dc server for columbia's c/o 2027 has like 278 members, and their insta page for c/o 2027 has like 425 posts but that still doesn't really mean much in helping us determine yield for this year because they're not that representative + some who are on the insta page are going to barnard

Yes that helps! I set up a zoom meeting with my regional admissions counselor, talked to him and was very vulnerable but insistent that it was my first choice and i had discussed the financial options with my parents. I made sure to come off as independent, responsible, knowledgable, respectful... etc. I sent in a LOCI earlier detailing my accomplishments + why I wanted to go. Also i naturally have charisma if i do say so myself unfortunately so that might have been a factor.
Just come off as very patient and willing but not desperate
With a lot of effort
Setting up a meeting and talking about the waitlist isn't desperate at all, just shows how willing you are

Yep! Totally out of my hands and I did indeed send an LOCI and have sent updates to him since I got WL in February. Whatever…I’m kind of over it at this pt.

I committed to a school I’m happy with and a major that’s amazing and competitive and once I get my roommate and pick my classes I’m done.
