Me too... but I haven't seen any update on the online system. It's still the same "decision" as last round...
did you see anything new?

I was waitlisted in R1 and remain on the WL. I can't tell if anyone has been admitted off the WL in any rounds.

I'm not sure how many applicants are wait listed but historically it looks like that Tepper admits more than 10% of it's class off the wait-list.

There was a Business Week article a few months ago and someone from Tepper was quoted as saying that last year they only admitted 16% of people on the wait list.

If 10% of a class of 200 gets admitted from the waitlist and those are the 16% then the math tells me that there are roughly 125 people on the Tepper waitlist. I don't think that the odds are actually very good.

Wait listed too, Tepper is my top choice and I am going to wait even if that means rejecting other offers.

Looks like they'll put all waitlisted applicants till the end of the application.
I've been waitlisted in R2 w/interview, and now received another WL in R3.

I hope so for the international applicants at least, due to the visa process.

However, it's a very tough decision up ahead. It's already very late in the game...


So you will reject the offer?

Yes -- I applied late, was interviewed late. Thought I bombed my interview, too. I stayed in touch with Adcom though, and updated them with additional materials.
