For future posterity...

From Eileen, received at 3:21 PM ET:

--

It’s Eileen with a brief update on the waitlist.

Round 2 interviews are almost complete, and soon we will be making decisions on the Round 1 waitlist.

We plan to finalize as many Round 1 waitlist decisions as possible. We anticipate that we will be admitting about 30-35 people, and will release most of those who are not being admitted. These decisions will be communicated via your online application on March 26, which is also the Notification Day for Round 2. The majority of you should expect a final decision (admit or release) on March 26th.

It is possible that we may hold onto a small group from the Round 1 waitlist to continue on the waitlist past March. If we would like you to remain under consideration, you will receive a separate email from me on March 26 with more information.

If there is any additional information to share before the March 26 Notification Day, I will be in touch again before then.

Thank you all for your patience with us.

Sincerely,

Eileen

I'd estimate at least 20. There are 15 listed in the first post of this thread, and I've seen at least another 5 (myself included) that aren't listed there.

I'm still somewhat confused by the fact that a number of people have gotten calls already (a friend of mine received a call 2 weeks ago as well...), contrasted with Eileen's note that formal notification would go out March 26th.

Am I being neurotic (realizing the answer is probably "yes") with the suspicion that this likely means that the majority of the 30-35 admitted have already been notified, with the portal notification to come only being to release (majority) or solicit continuation on into R2 waitlist?

Yes...equally confused as well...per recent email we received, the wording indicates that decisions are yet to be made...

It would be helpful to assess how many out of the 35 offers have been issued. Wild guess 5-15, with 20-30 offers left to make. I wonder if people will receive calls from now until the 26th.

From Eileen's email above, the decisions will be communicated via your online application on March 26. So, I guess the waitlisted applicants will only hear on March 26th and not before.

do you think calls will go out to accepted waitlisters over the next week or do you think we will all find out on the portal?

Would be surprised if anyone heard before the portal is updated next Tuesday. My friend who was admitted from WL R1 last year said didn’t hear anything until the R2 update at noon decision day
