My information says the PT dinner is Thursday evening, not Friday...
Sorry to hear that. Are you going to attempt to get off the waitlist? I'm not really sure what else they would want you to do.BigAristotle wrote:Waitlisted within the last hour.
Sorry to hear that BigA---I was hoping to see you get in! It seems like SMU may be overly-cautious in regards to minor criminal history. Best of luck on the waitlist!BigAristotle wrote:Waitlisted within the last hour.

Waitlisted along with you. Except that I am removing myself today. What a freaking joke.BigAristotle wrote:I'll sit on the Waitlist until the first week of June, give them a week after the June 1st deposit deadline. I'm visiting/Apartment hunting in Houston June 10thish, so they pretty much have till then to accept and/or match my need based aid.
Not sure what else I can do, another LOCI isn't going to do much. Might have my attorney write a snippet about my criminal addendum, which is about to be expunged.
Our two waitlists look mighty odd on LSN.BigAristotle wrote:With TC waitlisted as well, I'm surmising that SMU's cycle is finally over. Waitlists are all thats left for those who still want to get in, and they probably won't be altered till 6/1/2009 or later.

That sucks, sorry. I have no idea how they could reject your score.tcwhat wrote:Waitlisted along with you. Except that I am removing myself today.

Ignore any possible grammatical/spelling errors - I don't care about them in this letter and you get the point anyways.Upon logging into the status checker this afternoon, I discovered that a decision had been rendered and that I was placed on the waitlist for full time students. Unfortunately, I infer the likelihood of receiving a decision before July 1st, the deadline which I have given for all other schools, seems incredibly unlikely at this point. As such, please remove my name from the waitlist.
I'll spare you the diatribe and only state that I am insulted at the inordinate delay it took to render such an ineffective decision and I know I'm not alone. SMU's application was one of the few I paid for the application fee for and I now regret even considering SMU as a possibility and applying. Perhaps you will remedy the problems experienced this year in the future.
This is awesome.tcwhat wrote:Withdrew via email with a brief piece of mind:
