Not who you were asking, but it had "wait list" right in the title of the email, which I appreciated. We're offering you a spot on the WL, blah blah blah, "We will begin to review the waitlist in late May and the wait list will remain active until late August. If space becomes available in the entering class, we will make offers of admission."

Link to accept or decline the spot and reassurance that if you accept now, you can decline later.

Just add JSWL (over both, over one, under both) and JSD (same)? That's a lot of options...

well let's differentiate too btwn JSWL with an interview and JSWL without

I'd be interested in seeing whether applicants are JS2s and attending, still deciding, or withdrawing (for Y, S, or $$$), JSWs and are waiting or withdrawing, or JSDs and what type of school they are choosing (YS, CCN, etc.)

EDIT: or whether people are still waiting, as I know some are. Basically, a "What was H's decision, and what will yours be?" poll

Email. And thanks! Honestly it's an honor they offered me a spot. I applied to say I did and to get at least one rejection to deflate my head a bit. So I'm pleased as punch.

The issue with polling people who have already gotten decisions (dings or JS2s) is that a lot of them don't check this thread anymore. I know I don't check threads where I've already been accepted or dinged, personally.

How about "Who is the first person you would tell if you were accepted?"

Maybe change the "not yet complete" option to WL? Then the dedicated WL thread can break out all the options (e.g., pre or post-JS1, numbers above median).

Unreal that this thread is basically going to be over by next week... Although it probably contributed to more stress than peace, it's been nice to share the cycle with everyone. Good luck all!

Still sitting at a complete date of 2/18 after asking for my app to be held for my February. Score. Should I expect a WL at best at this point? Or are they still giving out new JS1s?
