yeah im not sure what their thinking is, perhaps they might fill their class manually since they have so many applicants, but the longer you wait the more you are just getting the rest of the t20s scraps (which may be their strategy)

with vandy, in 2020-2021 which is likely the most similar cycle to this one, Vandy gave out 350 As total. Right now we are at 299. So I think there will still be some movement, and quite a few off waitlist
Has anyone heard from Cincinnati lately?

@starfishies: I think it depends on stats, if ur within target of stats its probably an actual WL, they do take a couple people off their every year

Mostlylegal

its also holy week this week so we might not get any movement from them either since friday and thursday are probably days off
i love that we have to psychoanalyze these institutions to get any sort of semblance of clarity on their decision-making
