Hey, I'm in the two waitlist club. I think of waitlist notifications as "Well, you're qualified, but nothing really clicks" notes. Which is, I suppose, polite rejection. Also, you're going to Miami?
W00T, good way to think of WLs! Join the kewl club! Also, yes I will be in sunny Miami, drowning my sorrows in strawberry daquiris, JUST KIDDING! Although Ilse told me the virgin ones are quite good. Anyways though, TTYL! HAVE A GREAT SB!
Congrats to all y'all seniors on college acceptances so far, and good luck with the ordeal that is April aka decision month... I definitely remember that.
Also, when you're applying to schools like Columbia and get waitlisted, it's not at all a "You're qualified but nothing clicks." It's a "Half of our applicants are more than qualified, but we can only take 12% of them, and the orchestra director happened to say he wanted more cello players this year so we took a couple of them first. Oh, and that Asian kid from Alabama, because hey, he's an Asian kid from Alabama."
