    Since May 1st is the college decision day, and we would choose which college to attend. What happens if we get accepted into our dream school after that date like in July even though you already payed for housing and committed to a different college on May 1st?

      If you accept a waitlist offer after May 1, unfortunately you will forfeit the deposit that you made at your previous school. However, at least in my experience, housing payments are not until August, so you won't have to give that up. Either way, housing may get refunded, but deposits won't.

      i got off the waitlist at my dream school. i had to forfeit almost 1k at the other school i had been committed to. for me, it was 100% worth it, but unfortunately that is something to consider if u got off the waitlist. but i wouldn’t let that stop you from at least opting into the waitlist!

    I applied to my dream school early action and was first deferred. I then wrote a deferred supplemental letter detailing what I’ve achieved regarding my extracurriculars and academics since my first application. Then, I was unfortunately waitlisted in the regular decision round. The school is allowing me to write another LOCI, but as I wrote the deferred supplemental only a month ago, I do not have any additional achievements to add. What should I do?

      That's a good question, maybe you should write about why that school is so important to you

    But UCSD don't want LOCI right? The ucsd portal didn't prompt me to do anything else.

    How to get off the waitlist and get into your dream school: tell them you are not white and you made a mistake when you checked that box.

    i got waitlisted at Berkeley, and there was an option to submit a waitlist essay in the opt-in form, and they said they don’t require anything else. so in this case i don’t have to submit another LOCI, right?

    • @AchievEDPrep
      @AchievEDPrep  3 года назад +2

      Yes, in this case the waitlist essay = LOCI

    The colleges in Canada like Humber ,Seneca etc have the word waitlist beside their courses for example I wanna apply for a graduate certificate course of Business management but in the status of that course it’s written as “waitlisted “ so do you think I should still apply to those courses? Or go for some other intake?

      Probably not required, but some students may send them in after they get waitlisted. Good grades can't hurt though!
