Negotiating a waitlist acceptance with another waitlist
Posted: Tue May 29, 2012 11:46 am
I'm waitlisted at two identically ranked schools. If I'm accepted off one, can I use that acceptance to put the pressure on the other? Like "School A just accepted me and gave me 5 days to decide, but I really want to attend school B. Is it possible for you to reconsider my file before I have to decide on School A's offer?" Or is that considered pushy and not recommended?
