What is the wait list?
Once the first-year class has been filled, applicants will be placed on a wait list for admission. Admission will not be offered or denied at the time the student is placed on the wait list. However, the College will only offer a space on a wait list if there is a strong possibility that an offer of admission will be made before the admission cycle ends. Final status for wait-listed students will be determined between May 1 and August 1.
Since we don’t know until after May 1 how many students will accept our offer of admission, we invite a number of our applicants to stay on our wait list in case we find there are remaining spaces in the freshman class. The list is unranked; if spaces become available, we will review the entire group of candidates on the wait list.
