I'm the first person on a waitlist (and have been in the first position since the beginning) at a small school admitting 30 students per class. Classes start Aug 30, which doesn't leave much time between now and when classes start. A few questions I had was: 1) The no payment drop date is this thursday, does this signify a chance for a cut? 2) Is there anything I should do to prepare in the meantime? 3) Has anyone had a similar experience at a smaller school and have any luck? It's making me completely nervous for something I'm really excited for!!! Thank-you ahead of time for any advice you may have.
