I thought they were going to release a bunch of people off the waitlist?

Did you just pull that out of your ass or did you actually hear that somewhere? because I never heard anything about them doing that.PAR12 wrote:I thought they were going to release a bunch of people off the waitlist?

I think he's referring to last week's email that said they would pull a lot "late [this] week."chimp wrote:Did you just pull that out of your ass or did you actually hear that somewhere? because I never heard anything about them doing that.PAR12 wrote:I thought they were going to release a bunch of people off the waitlist?
They may have, and it could just be that they just pulled a bunch of people who don't really post much.

Re: USC Waitlist 2011
Oh by "release off the waitlist" par12 meant admit people off the waitlist? Who knows. It was a pretty vague statement.helloperson wrote:I think he's referring to last week's email that said they would pull a lot "late [this] week."chimp wrote:Did you just pull that out of your ass or did you actually hear that somewhere? because I never heard anything about them doing that.PAR12 wrote:I thought they were going to release a bunch of people off the waitlist?

They could have admitted a hand full of people today who don't post here, but who knows if they will accept. Either way, those of us still waiting definitely still have a chance, if not later today then later in the summer. USC seems to use their waitlist a lot.
Edit: For example, just from searching their posts I know that the person who started this thread got in off the USC and UCLA waitlists and placed a deposit at UCLA so we shall see.

Why you were ever on the waitlist at USC is beyond me. Have fun at Columbia!

Re: USC Waitlist 2011
Gotcha. Well good luck negotiating with them. With your numbers I don't know why you were waitlisted in the first place.jman77 wrote:I mean I don't even want to leave at all if I had a sensible option to do so.chimp wrote:But you can get back to so cal easily if you go to Columbia.

I wonder if there is any use visiting the school this week to try to put in a good word? From last year's thread there still seemed to be a fair number of waitlist-acceptances right up until early-August.chimp wrote:From the look of it USC is just number whoring (which doesn't surprise me).
