As we wrap up our initial wait list activity, I wanted to take a moment to provide an update on our progress. We had space to admit about 100 students from the wait list. Although the final deposit deadline for this first group of wait list admits is today, May 16, it appears we may have filled our remaining spots. I deliberately used the word “may” because there has been a lot of buzz in the media about the large numbers of schools including Harvard and Penn, who have gone to their wait lists. In fact, I appeared on a local Boston TV show discussing this very topic. While we believe the Northeastern class is just about complete, more space could open up later if the wait list activity at other colleges and universities continues. For students who are still on our wait list, we will continue to monitor our enrollment over the next couple of weeks. We know how difficult it is to wait so we will do our best to wrap up the wait list process as soon as we can.
Until next time.
