yes and I dont know whats happening either....this was my 2nd time trying to chase what everyone said was an impossible dream and money I could ill-afford ...anyway what can we do except wait and see if stars change (given am WL in 2 places ) with no movement in either, its real upsetting .....my interview hadnt been that great so I guess not much to do...

So i visited campus recently. It was great, I am so in love with that school! On a strange note, the admin and I bonded over my jacket and my bag.. and so I was like "Candidly, speaking, do i get a gold star for visiting" to which she joked and then she was like, "Send them an email letting them know you are still interested etc."

I haven't done anything so far, her official title (as per linked in) is MBA Program Coordinator. So now.. should I or shouldn't i send an email? I don't really have an update, other than when i see my Boss' face all I can think of saying is "F U IM QUITTING SOON!!!" So... should I or shouldn't i?

i feel like, at this point, they either know or they don't. I think it's a given that you would be still interested in Wharton and that it remains one of your top choices. Since they specifically asked not to send supplemental information, they might get irritated that you are blowing up their inbox to tell them you visited the campus last week. The person you talked to doesn't have any bearing or insight on the waitlist process anyway, which from what I can tell is done by the two people who keep emailing us each month.

High risk, low reward. You don't want them thinking you are some annoying and high strung type A person.

They ask that waitlisted students not submit additional materials, by they probably mean extra essays, references, etc. However it's ok to give them an update on your job situation or a new GMAT score or other change in circumstance. They also seem to welcome questions.

So I guess you can contact them if you have some update other than just that you visited the school and loved it and are stil interested.

Yes. Don't remember what was there before when I first opened my application, but my waitlist letter isn't anywhere to be found.

Thanks Dakells! Was kind of a surprise - I was bracing myself to get waitlisted again at 12pm EST. Now I need to decide Columbia or Wharton, but definitely leaning Wharton.
