I actually feel bad for the "tormented ten" and am looking forward to some resolution from my "release" letter tomorrow.

What do you all see when you look at your Applyyourself status? Curious if everyone still has their original letter as their current status or if some people have updated letters or a message like "your decision will be available friday at noon".

I still see my original letter from 12/12/12 with the most recent 5/15/13 timestamp. Basically no change from the last two weeks. What do you see?

Yeah, my mom went as far to say, "If you are still on that list come tomorrow, don't expect me to be happy..." Haha.

Same here. I was just curious because before the last release my app status changed and said "decision will be available at X time"

I also survived the (alleged) cut.

Feels like we're getting jerked around... again. I'm betting we can count more than 10 still on the waitlist. Would anyone else mind confirming if they were cut or remain?

The last communication said that "about 10" people would remain on the waitlist, which I interpret as 8-12 people. With 941 spots already filled, and with very few people changing their plans this late in the game (especially for HBS admits), I doubt that there are significantly more than 10 people still on the waitlist.

Does anyone know when there has historically been movement on the summer waitlist? Does it resolve in July or go all the way up to the start of the fall semester? There are (exactly) 10 of us on the Stanford list and our thread is dead, so I figured I'd pop in here.

Svalbard, can you provide any color as to when (date/method) Stanford notified you that you were A.) on the summer waitlist and B.) one of exactly 10 people on said list?

It was just a simple update on ApplyYourself; the decision letter changed on 6/12 and mentioned we should expect another update by 7/10, then again in August and early September.
