Wharton wouldn't exactly have been the greatest culture fit for me, but this is the first one to sting quite a bit. Starting to get nervous, because I'm not paying $200k to go to Tuck. And of course, tomorrow I'm flying out on a client project to the middle of nowhere and won't have cell or internet service all day (unless I can scrounge up some dial up from a local, lol)!

Dinged... the MBA dream is over for me...

Continuing on the WL from round 1.

Waitlisted - I wonder what the odds of getting in off the wait list are?

It has seemed quite hopeless from R1, but perhaps there will be some movement after R2 deposits.

R2 applicant, just got waitlisted. Any advice? Wharton is my #1.

Waitlisted as well. From what I gather when WL from Wharton all you can really do is wait. You don't really submit a whole bunch of updates or a biweekly/monthly emails. Is that correct?
