Independently very wealthy + a lot of free time to kill + insatiable love for western St. Louis. So, no, not without a large scholarship.

Makes sense since I can't see myself shoveling over sticker price, so I'll just withdraw from their WL. Thanks for the input.

No problem, a buddy of mine took out sticker to come here this year. Let's just say it's not really working out...

Is anyone "on hold" like me? I can't seem to find any one in the same situation.

Edit: Asked them about why I was on hold, immediately waitlisted. I guess the lesson is "don't ask don't tell"?

We have similar stats. I'm waiting for a decision from them, too. Good luck to us!

Waitlisted today and withdrew. GL everyone.

That's unbelievable! Are you a huge splitter?

Withdrew after being accepted. It was a hard decision, because it came with $$$$ too. Hope someone on WL gets some good news.

Yeah I'm a super-splitter but it still kinda surprised me. Maybe because I applied late in the cycle? Honestly, I'm kind of glad, I was really torn on what to do and this made it simple for me.

Just withdrew with a lot of $$$ so I hope my seat and funds go to one of you on the WL!

My application is still under review! Should I be worried

If you haven't heard back yet, you should just withdraw.

Seriously though, if they didn't accept between 2 weeks and a month after you applied, and you didn't hear back about an interview almost immediately, you're just not going to get enough money from WashU for it to be worth it (most likely).

I mean probably, but there's no reason to withdraw without a decision unless you have an affinity for making AdComs lives easier.

Hey 0Ls (And whoever else is reading this), hope those of you who have committed to WUSTL are pumped and those of you on the fence decide to hop on the bandwagon. I'm a 3L here and have loved my time in St Louis. Anyway - to the point. My roommate's girlfriend just graduated and moved to St Louis for next year so he will be moving out and leaving me all alone in my sizable apartment. While that's not really a huge issue, it's always nice to have someone right there to share a beer and a laugh with while watching the hockey game. Not paying twice the rent is cool, too.

I've been looking around for potential new roommates and figured the easiest source of people looking for a new apartment in St Louis would be you guys. I live a 5 minute walk from Forest Park, right near the metrolink stop at the history museum which is super convenient. More than that, it's about a 2 minute drive/cab or 10 minute walk to either the CWE or The Loop - best of both worlds, really. It's a great place on Pershing Ave where tons of other law students and other grad students live. Pretty young area. Anyways, I know you guys will be looking for apartments fairly soon once the second deposit deadline passes, so feel free to PM me if you think you might be interested or really if you have any other questions about St Louis or WUSTL in general.

Cheers

Just withdrew with about $120K in scholarship. I hope that it gets redistributed to those of you on the waitlist or on the fence! I loved WashU, but it just didn't "fit" as well as other schools. Best of luck to you all!
