Thats pretty bad to know. Because being waitlisted you cannot clearly plan not knowing what the outcome is going to be. Both sv and Jay, from your experience it seems foolish now to me to hang on hoping for a positive outcome.

I was put on the WL as well - first thing I did was start my app for Spring 08. It's all done minus the introduction to Essay 1.

As soon as the hammer drops I'm back in the game :)

What do you suggest for a weak GMAT? Start studying?

Hi I called to ask - for those who haven't heard anything, even if you applied late, everyone should receive something by early august. If you haven't heard anything yet, I wouldn't fret yet - it's not an indication one way or another if you've been accepted or not, they're just doing things methodically.

It depends on whether you think you have time to improve your score.

It seems like all is forgiven if you're in the 700+ range. So if you think you can top 700 without much effort I'd do it.

I struggled harder to meet the May15 deadline and rushed with GMAT and the application. The deadline did'nt seem to mean much and applications were accepted late also - they might be accepting even now :)

I had lot of time when I cud have prepared and retaken GMAT - hard lesson learnt!

Xion - You mentioned that you are going to be applying for the Spring. Do you anticipate an improved application by then or do you think it's just easier to get in in the Spring?

I don't think either term is easier, but I have been improving a few aspects of my profile and hope to highlight those along with a letter of recommendation from an alumnus.

Agreed. Spring is not so easier. In fact, the number of admitted students is less than that of Fall semester.

Waitlisted [#permalink] New post   Updated on: 03 Aug 2007, 15:58
Hi everyone,

I heard back from NYU on Tuesday afternoon (07/31/2007), but I got waitlisted. I don't know exactly what I am supposed to do.
Does anyone know if there is a lot of waitlisted and what is the % of admitted from the waitlist (they said that it is not ranked)...

Thanks.

Congrats to all the admitted!

Sarah.

The adcom wait till the last day and wait list all of us whereas they're still accepting applications for Fall 2007. It seems unfair for the applicants who applied to beat the deadline..

I feel that they waitlisted a lot of the applicants, as I'm sure there are many qualified people out there. I think it is up to us to identify our achilles heel and fix it. I know what mine is and I'm going to work on it and give it another shot for the spring semester if I don't get in off the waitlist- which I have feeling not many people do. If I don't get in for the spring I've got a back up. Keep us posted if anyone does get in off of the waitlist. Congratulations to everyone accepted.

So there are very few spaces left for us all. I feel that the adcom waitlists us even though we're not THAT qualified, but it make us wanted to reapply for the next round, after we get dinged, which increase the number of applications and make the school looks competitive. They should have dinged me a year ago instead of waitlisted me twice.
