Have You Recently Been Waitlisted? We Can Help.
You’ve recently been applying for colleges and you learn that you are put on a waitlist for one of your dream schools. This can be a very stressful part of applying for colleges but don’t worry, it is not too late to turn your application around and become an admit! AdmissionsCheckup is here to review your application and help you make the case to get off the waitlist and on to the ‘Accepted’ list.
Yes, It’s Possible. Here’s Why:
Consider these three facts about Colleges and Universities:
- They care about their admissions numbers and offer acceptance rates.
- They determine who to accept based on a number of factors, including (but not limited to) the quality of the student applications and essays.
- They have the flexibility to hear appeals, change their minds, and reverse their decisions — but they won’t do that unless there’s a compelling case.
- Students get waitlisted for a variety of reasons that are beyond their control. If there is something in an application that gives the admissions officer pause, we help you identify it so that you can address it in future communication with the school.
If they’re on the fence about admitting you, your job is to gently nudge them toward admitting you and give them a reason to change their decision.
How to Get Off the Waitlist
What you’ll need to do to is shore up anything that could have been lacking in your application and make sure the school knows you will attend if admitted.
AdmissionsCheckup is here to help review your college application and then guide you to making the most compelling case for admission with our Application Critique service:
- We will help to clarify aspects of your application that might have been unclear when you initially submitted.
- We will help catch the “red flags” that could have caused you to be waitlisted, and provide you with advice on how to mitigate them.
- We will provide you feedback about where your application and essay could have been stronger.
Additionally, we’ll also send you an example appeal letter you can use as a template for crafting your own case — along with your revamped application — for gaining immediate acceptance to the school that waitlisted you.
Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value. Our son received an offer from his top choice and many others (including 2 Ivy Leagues). They are thorough.
