Hi everyone,
Up until today, I had my mind made up to attend Vandy with $$. However, I was just wait listed at UVA. I really want to ride it out but I'm not sure if they'll be willing to give me money. I heard that they don't give merit aid for students accepted of the WL But I am eligible for need based. I guess I need advice as to If it is worth riding it out? I have ties to the south so either would be ideal. Does anyone know the chances of getting off WL?

Re: Ride out?
I could be wrong...but is there any downside to depositing at Vandy and riding out the Waitlist? (other than the deposit money for Vandy I suppose). You don't have to take their acceptance if they offer it to you!

I'm not sure if I'll have the money to deposit at both (if accepted)

Re: Ride out?
Maybe sign up for a June take to get off the WL? Stats? I know that sucks having to lose a deposit, but I wouldn't gamble on UVA accepting you and not having put down a deposit at Vandy (unless you are cool sitting out another cycle).

Re: Ride out?
FWIW I got 60K off the UVA waitlist last summer. And they offered it to me late, like in August I think.
