Waitlisted again. It's interesting to note that the decision letter doesn't mention that the decisions will be made along with the round 3 decisions. The R1 waitlist letter specifically mentioned the round 2 decision date as the waitlist decision date (if I'm remembering correctly).
You are correct, but the waitlist email I just received says decisions will be released with R3.
Quote:
Your application to the University of Chicago Booth School of Business has received the careful consideration of our Admissions Committee. While we are impressed with your application, we are unable to provide you with a final decision at this time and will place you on our waitlist for future consideration. I want to assure you that being placed on the waitlist signals our sincere interest in your candidacy.
This year, our admissions process was highly competitive. While Chicago Booth is grateful to have so many talented students seeking to join us in Fall 2011, we are simply not able to admit all of our most qualified candidates at this time.
During the coming months, the Committee will review waitlist candidates for admission as a part of our Round 3 evaluation process. Decisions will be released as part of our Round 3 process on May 18. While we hope to enroll as many waitlist candidates as we can at that point, the possibility does exist that some students will continue to be on the waitlist into the summer.
You are more than welcome to visit Chicago Booth at any time, though this is not necessary and will not directly impact your admission decision. In the meantime, we ask that you stay in touch should you choose to make other plans and no longer wish to be considered for a spot in the Class of 2013.
My waitlist letter has several blank lines instead of the paragraph about the Round 3/summer decisions. I'm pretty sure the blank lines weren't there when I checked at 9:01 am central.
