Hi all,
I was admitted off the SOM waitlist today, so we know there was at least some movement this year, although I heard it was very minimal.

Congratulations. There orientation starts in 2 weeks, so there must be a last minute drop out. Are you going to matriculate?
Absolutely. I'm a joint degree student, so I think that might have helped me get the call at the very end.
For anyone wondering the path I took to get off the wait list: two follow up letters within a week after being asked if I wanted to remain on the wait list highlighting grades, leadership activities on campus and YSPH website feature, and emphasis on SOM being the only business school of interest to me. Also, a letter of recommendation from a YLS professor was submitted in June, and I'm sure helped a lot with me getting in.
If anyone has any other questions, feel free to PM me. Best of luck to you all with your apps in the future.
