Read a random definition: limitation

A quick definition of Grand Remonstrance:

Grand Remonstrance: A document created by the House of Commons in 1641 to complain about King Charles I. The document listed many problems with the way the king was running the country, including unfair treatment in the courts, bad advisors, and not punishing Catholics. The Grand Remonstrance caused a big argument between the king and the Parliament, and the king even tried to arrest some of the people who wrote it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: The Grand Remonstrance was a document issued by the House of Commons in 1641, which listed many political grievances against King Charles I. It demanded three main actions to be taken: (1) improvements in the justice system, (2) appointment of trustworthy ministers, and (3) enforcement of laws against Roman Catholics. This document caused a major split between the Royalist and Parliamentary parties, and led to Charles I seeking the arrest of the five members who pushed the document through Commons.

Example: The Grand Remonstrance was a significant event in English history, as it marked the beginning of the conflict between the King and Parliament. The document was a list of complaints against the King, and it demanded that he take action to address these issues. The Grand Remonstrance was a clear indication that the power of the King was being challenged by Parliament, and it set the stage for the English Civil War.

When was the WL session held?

It looks like GULC's seat deposit deadline is May 1, so it wouldn't surprise me if "in a few weeks" meant "around May 1"

I received my GULC II yesterday so they seem to still be genuinely considering applicants

yesterday. Based on the recap from reddit, Dean Andy told them to expect some movement from April 23-May 10.

I found a post just now that says he mentioned a first WL-->A wave around May 8. If I were you, as tough as it is, I would sit tight; they don't like to feel that applicants are hounding them (sucky system tho tbh)

It's my top choice so waiting has been really hard. I'm guessing at this point I'm on the cusp between WL or R

Andy also said he wouldnt be surprised if there was movement before seat deposits. Also to make sure to send a good loci. He said its basically another application cycle which doesnt make sense since preferential waitlist was supposed to be unranked?
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
11:48
I wonder why there would be movement so early. Are they experiencing lower-than-expected yield? Seems unlikely given this cycle
UnevenInstinctiveSeal
11:48
They said they underadmitted
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
11:49
That's good news for you!
UnevenInstinctiveSeal
11:49
I'm really worried my application is on the cusp of WL/R and that's why I havent been given a decision
ParallelAgreeableOrangutan
11:51
That kind of thing is probably beyond anyone's ability to divine... but I feel like in that case, wouldn't they just WL you and circle back around later to decide during WL movement?
