Just a quick not to say that we sent our second round of waitlist offers (eg. third round of offers) today. The deadline is Wednesday, June 5 @ 12:00 noon PDT. Congratulations to those who received an offer!
That’s a great question. What this means is that we are hoping to have a full class soon. However, we recognize that at this point in the process several applicants have already accepted offers at other institutions, or will be receiving offers from a school they are currently waitlisted for. Therefore, we will likely be sending a few more rounds of offers (in fact, I know we will be sending at least one more round of offers because at least a couple of people have already declined the offer we sent yesterday), so the movement off of the waitlist is by no means over. We anticipate that this movement will slow down to a trickle by the end of June. At that point we will shorten the waitlist (if necessary) so that we don’t give false hope to anyone who we truly believe has no chance of being admitted later in the summer.
If you are currently on the waitlist and are patiently waiting to hear, you do still have a chance at this point in time. We will let you know either way as soon as we can.
Thanks for quick response! I know the office wouldn’t tell how many waitlisters are left. While I wonder if the office could tell us how many seats are still available in each site/category.
Glad this helps. We plan to send the next round of WL offers as soon after the June 5 noon deadline as possible, so likely June 6. The deadline for that round will be sometime the week of June 10 and then the subsequent round (if necessary) will be sent one of the following days, again, most likely the week of June 10.
Does it mean the number of future available seats is significantly reduced after this round?
Thanks,
Ling

Sorry we are unable to disclose how many seats are still remaining in each site.
Hi,
Thank you for the updates. They really do help. Do you anticipate sending out Round 3 offers before June 14th?
Thanks,
Samantha

I hope to hear from you soon.
Hello, were all of the third round waitlist offers sent out today or will there be more offers sent out on June 6th?
Thank you.
