Waitlist chances

Published

Hi everyone,

I am #8 on the waitlist for Goldfarb's nursing program at Washington University for Spring 2011 term (2-year Upper Division BSN Program). They said that the class contains 70 students, but that my chances are 'very good'. How is it possible? Wouldn't roughly 15% of the class have to change their minds for me to get in? I am confused :)

Thanks!

did they send out a letter or something telling you that or did you call to find out your place on the list?

It took a few months before I got a letter, so you don't have to worry :)

More than 15 percent of the students they admitted will not go there. So many people apply to multiple programs, I would say you have an excellent chance. I was in the same situation around the same spot on the wait list in a smaller program. Got in and now have one year left!
