Thanks! And thanks to you members here on gmatclub. After the first WL, I submitted an additional essay. R3 decisions came around...WL again. Then I read the success stories in this very thread of those that submitted other additional information. Honestly, I wasn't feeling optimistic about my status, but I figured I truly had nothing to lose at this point. Submitted an additional letter of recommendation. Wait, wait, wait some more...and here we are today. Best of luck to anyone still waiting on any decision from them!

I got in off the R2 waitlist! Thanks everyone! I'm shocked, I honestly thought they weren't interested in me, because of lack of updates (even on decision day). I saw an e-mail that said "exciting news from the Tepper School of Business" and naively I thought "I guess David Tepper donated more money". I open it and it says "Congratulations! You're In!"

Got in Today. I was waitlisted from R2.

BTW, since I was admitted off the waitlist and haven't seen anything in the acceptance letter is it safe to assume that I have no financial aid? Should I call either way to find out?
