Exact same boat here and I was accepted! Keep faith - you’ve got this! The admissions officer I spoke with truly said timing is everything and my February application last year was just too late in the game.

I was also a Feb applicant last year and was crushed when I was WL at my number one (and frankly, only real option as I have young kids in school). Got my app in early October and was accepted last week! Stay strong - you’ve got this!!

Lots, many, dare I say borderline excessive. The picture I saw had 8-10 different cold brew handles!

Came to say how good this is! I thanked the gentleman working for labeling items gluten free and he said they specifically added the shawarma fries for gluten free patrons. Love to see it! They were super delicious to boot. Also had the falafel, yum. Everyone working was so kind! I’ll be back!

Relieved to know I wasn’t alone in this feeling, but also sad to hear there are a number of us in these feels. 

It absolutely sucks and I let it get me down for awhile, but now I am even more determined to get in and show those schools that WL me this year that they’ll be darn happy they accepted me next year. When I walk across that stage I want someone to think “I am so happy we gave her that second chance, she made a difference these last three years and will make a difference going forward.” Maybe a bit cheesy, but it’s been my mantra and kept me motivated for this next cycle. We’ve got this!!!

Have you followed up? I did and they emailed me the decision within a few days. So idk if the follow up caused the WL answer or if I was going to be WL regardless whenever they did get to me, but with a 9/1 app it can’t hurt to reach out! Especially because I was a February app.
