duckmag Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Hello All, I just interviewed and was waitlisted. I was wondering how I should respond to the waitlist email. Can I ask what position I am on that waitlist or is that a no-no? Also, is there anything in particular people would reccomend me to say in my first email-other than the obvious thank yous and why i am interested in the school-? I am planning to do some shadowing and send a hand-written letter in the next couple months if I don't hear anything. Thanks so much for the help guys and good luck to you all!

futurePA2016 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I think you can totally ask what position you're on at the waitlist. Some schools rank and some don't so you can ask your school what it does. Also, definitely write a letter of continued interest. You can find some excellent examples here: http://www.top-law-schools.com/appendixf.html While those are for law school, the same principle applies. Write about aspects of the program you loved, how the school is a good fit for you and how you yourself are a good fit for the school. If something new happened between the interview and this letter, include it. Otherwise include that as an update in a future letter if you still haven't been accepted. If the program is your absolute top choice, you can also include a line about how you will definitely accept a seat if it is offered (only say so if you mean it though!). Best of luck!

winterallsummer Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Not sure what to tell you. Asking can't hurt but they may or may not reveal your spot. Either way, there is no way of knowing if you will get in or not. Just know that last minute is when spots open up, when people who can't decide finally do decide to go to a program besides where you are wait listed. Best of luck to you.

newton9686 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Just express your thankfulness for being on the wait list. Few make it that far. I wouldn't recommend asking about your position. It doesn't help you any. I'd be more concerned about showing your maturity and appreciation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
