stanford waitlist :( Forum

what's the likelihood of getting off a WL? I'm WL at Stanford--I really want to go there, but my other school requires me to withdraw from all waitlists by June 1. What should i do meanwhile?

Did they notify you via mail about the waitlist?

I would also just send a LOCI, updated grades and/or resume, any new and interesting news maybe another LOR.

no

what about LOCI and maybe additional recommendation? or would it raise a flag like "if she went to the effort of sending all this stuff in, why is the updated transcript missing?"

AHHHHH not another LOCI!!!!!! 2 holds, 4 WLs.... WTF IS THIS!

I'm also trying desperately to get off the waitlist. I'm sending another letter of recommendation, an updated transcript at the end of the year, and I'm including a LOCI with my form saying that I want to keep my spot on the waitlist.
