    Since legacies are ig placed on there to get let down lightly, do they still have the same chance as everyone else to get off?

    I feel, as a parent, that it is income based. We applied to a private high school and have been waitlisted. Everything looked good to us, extra curricular activities, essays, letters of recommendation, grades, scores, etc...Do you think we can update the income part of the application and increase monthly payments? Would they see it or is it too late?

    it is mentioned that we should ask for admission in January or for the following year if rejected, but when should we do this? after getting rejected from the waitlist or before? please answer.

    Hello I have a question, what if we don’t have a representative at our school on the behalf of the school that waitlisted us? Will contacting the admission office be safe?

    10:26 1. Do what they ask 12:20 2. Don't be ridiculous 13:32 3. Reach out to the rep 14:26 4. Deposit somewhere else 16:21 5. Ask about admission in January or the following September 18:44 6. Play the waiting game well

    Stanford tells waitlisted applicants “to please refrain” from sending letters and recommendations and to just instead reply to the waitlist offer and send some optional updates. Should I still contact my regional rep or nah

      The video makes clear that above all else you should do as the college says. So when someone say refrain ... refrain.
