Waitlisted from round 2, waitlisted from round 3.

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 applied in Round3 - waitlisted without interview. I'm not sure about my chances - given that I was not even interviewed. Should I be hopefull at all ? Does, Tepper waitlist a lot of candidates ?

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.
