Anyone know when they'll begin to release waitlists?

[Rigo]

People still merely under review: did you send in your CSS to Stanford yet?
I'm wondering if I should wait it out in case I get a reject in next few weeks or just send it and be done with it.

Wondering same. Is it too hopeful to just send it in?

Not yet, because I'm superstitious. I think I will in March, though, so if I do get lucky and get in, I'm not scrambling.

[ohgosh]

Do we have to fill out the financial aid documents before the March 15 deadline even if we haven't received a decision yet? And which documents?

Got an e-mail from Stanford University with the subject line "Invitation to participate..." My heart stopped.

Then realized it was my work e-mail and it was just a survey for government employees in my state. NOT. OKAY.

Can an admitted student please tell us how many people are in the FB group?

Mid-April, from last year's thread (I think Apr. 18 was the first officially reported WL, from someone who went DLS a week earlier).

Unrelated, but in my thread stalking/research, it looks like the mailing section on the status checker popped up for people during March/April and wild speculation ensued. I have it and thought nothing of it -- was it ever confirmed to be correlated with a decision? I'm assuming not, but I'm never going to pass up an opportunity to speculate some more.

Like just the blank box with the title Mailings? Thought that was always there.

Exactly -- I remember wondering if it had always been there a month or so ago, but figured I was just staring at too many status checkers. Given that, the two-ish pages of speculation last year piqued my curiosity -- I'm assuming it doesn't mean a damn thing, but was curious if anyone knew otherwise.

It's always been there.

Thanks!

Went DLS today, no call... I think I've been dinged!

Ouch, sorry that blows. Hope the rest of your cycle is going better though!

Thanks, ill update with my stats when I know for sure. Stanford was a hella reach anyway.
Yeah I've pretty much already moved myself in at Georgetown so, I'll be okay!

[mer2020]

Hey, does anyone know if there is a way to check that Stanford received your FAFSA and CSS? Thanks!

So if waitlists don't go out until April, we could conceivably hear nothing until then?

Correct. Sad right?

[anonperson2017]

oh my god! was not expecting this at all today... just got the call! submitted early jan.

Last year, the last WL/rejections went out the first week of May!
