WUSTL c/o 2015 Applicants (2011-2012 cycle) Forum

My app status checker still says Application Complete 2/28. After sifting through earlier posts, I think it's likely I'm being waitlisted or rejected, just wish I could find out sooner! I'm 99% sure on Minnesota, but Wash U is closer to home and seems to be generous with scholarship awards.

When did you go complete? Is 2/28 your first date?

I applied 2/15 and then complete 2/27 and again 2/28.

Well, the graph on the last page pretty much sums up the hope for the rest of us.

Our options are wait list and rejection. I was expecting something from them today, but no-go. Ah-well. Fingers crossed.

It looks like they are still making some offers. What concerns me is that they wait until the end of March to make all their rejections at once, which means people who applied in October are being rejected the same time as those who applied in February. However, it looks like they typically wait-list quite a few people and admit quite a few from the waitinglist.

Yea them waiting that long is kind of dirty to applicants who applied early and in "good faith" at this point those who've been complete for months know its WL or a rejection so what is the hold up?

Deposits are due April 1st, and decisions are due April 15th. They'll look at their yield numbers on April 2nd and look for LSAT and GPA boosters in the remaining applicant pool.

Where'd you get April 15th from? I don't see any final decision date, just a second deposit by June 1st...

Ah, ok. I thought you meant that applicants had to make their final decisions on attending by April 15, but if I'm reading it correctly it means that the school will make their final initial decisions on applicants. Sorry for the confusion there, you had me panicking for a second!

Waitlisted. Doesn't look like they give much out in scholarships to WL-Admits, so I'm probably withdrawing.

Waitlisted/withdrew.

Wait list via email... Will wait it out... Does anyone know if they tend to let many people in off the WL? Their email didn't seem too optimistic.
