70

....

So does anyone have an idea of how many admits there have been total? Any consensus on if there will be any more or if we're just in WL vs ding territory here? Best of luck to everyone!

Seems to be only WL Ding territory, but who knows at this point. We've heard there may still be some straight admits.

Still waiting. Wow.


Website says they get decisions out by the 30th after holding a number of applications for review at the end of the cycle.

Hmm.

How can Stanford do this and expect anyone to actually come?

Because they're Stanford.

Most of us would consider going if they called us.

Since we haven't had any detailed summary of speculation in a while, allow me to offer the following...

I think what they're doing is relatively intuitive. We know they hold some applications for an April review, in order to fill the class. They probably drag out this process as long as possible to hear back from accepted candidates so they know how many more (if any) to accept. This is why further acceptances are “possible."

In the mean time they probably wittle down the pool by making some waitlist / ding decisions, hence the stream of dls's in the last week.

Any thoughts ?

Sounds about right. The slow bleeding off of applicants is frustrating, but it's better than them just doing nothing while they wait for a final wave I suppose. I'm of the opinion that they are still going to accept some before the end of the month.
