Any waitlisted candidates here.
I was waitlisted and there is no updates yet, I have been asked to wait till July. Need to deposit in other schools.

What do you guys feel, is there a chance for me?

Definitely place the deposit for the other school if you want to go for MBA this year.

Look at the yield of BU to have a sensing of waitlist chance. I would say BU waitlist convert should not be that tough.... But definitely dont bank on it esp if you have not done anything to boost your profile (ie. new GMAT score, new promotion etc)

The yield of schools in the Top 20-50 bracket is not that high.
Speaking of BU(2016 data) ->


# of apps = 1067

# of admits = 381

# of enrolment = 147

Acceptance rate = 35%

Yield = 38%




So all hells to the yeah, you have a pretty good chance.
A dear friend of mine just gave up 70k aid at Questrom. So some of you might get a great aid too.

HANG IN THERE !

P.S -> Off-course you should pay the deposit to other school!

You can find other waitlisted candidates here

Have you to reached out to the adcoms asking for a feedback and telling them that your still interested? If not, I would suggest doing so.
