They should give you one if you filled out the FAFSA/Need because they have to notify you about your loan status as well. They should. But email them if you're getting antsy in your pantsy.

Thanks. I'm not, though. They told me they sent it. I was just wondering if this meant I should get my hopes up for some more money or not. Looks like the latter, but I'll just have to wait and see.

Sad part was that I even had one of their alums who actually happens to be successful (trust me, she was hard to find) write me a letter of reference. Oh well, not meant to be. As you may imagine, I have received offers from schools with more prestige, although BU did really appeal to me.

Well you got waitlisted at your safety. Congrats! If you actually want to go, then write them why. Otherwise enjoy the T14 where you probably knew you'd end up anyway! :wink:

Seems they accepted way too many people at the beginning of the cycle and coupled with their shrinking class sizes, found themselves SOL with all these super-qualified applicants.

Shit, if you guys are all getting WL'ed, there's no hope for a 164/3.8 to get off the list. :?

Did they just fill up or something? These WL's seem ridiculous to me.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
