Welcome to the club :(

What does the "aam" part of your URM status mean? It can't be AAm, since you said you're latina. Did you mean AAf?

Sorry to those caught in the waitlist wave.

I am still alive, amazingly. I have been checking my email all day. Still nothing from Harvard yet.

Wait, you're African American?

No way. No AA with your stats gets rejected at H, like historically it just doesn't happen.

Whew! I am glad to hear that you're still in the game. Some URM folks got the WL today with shockingly good stats (Koala?!?!?!?).

Still here as well...doesn't look like anyone with recent JS1's heard anything today. I'm really grateful to have dodged the WL wave but it's incredibly frustrating at this point. I just want to have a home for the next 3 years and not have to worry about it anymore. Gahhhh just gotta hang in there I guess

Yep, I was one of them! I'm not as devastated as I thought I'd be (because let's face it, this was inevitable). I know that all things happen for a reason. The reason for this particular happening was just that I had sub-par numbers, haha.

Do you mean schools from which we are still awaiting decisions or schools in which we are on the WL?

I have yet to hear from UChicago, Duke, and Vandy.
