The College of Engineering offered a place on the wait list to approximately 2,000 candidates this year. This number sounds like a lot, but in truth, it is not the operative number. Of the 2,000 candidates offered a space on the wait list, approximately half will ask to remain on the wait list. Of those individuals who want to remain on the wait list, some percentage will drift away over April and May. They will develop ties to the college or university where they have deposited and their interest in Cornell Engineering will diminish over time. So in actuality, the operative number is much smaller than 2,000.

俺的理解是：4/30要commit去哪个大学上学。
5/1之后，各个大学才会根据commit的情况决定从WL上再发一些offer？如果幸运儿被选中，这种情况下反悔4/30之前commit的大学是允许的，对吧？几大藤校里面的WL上复活的概率相对大一些？
谢谢紫檀有经验的大佬们解答。
康有时还会问是否愿意自费？
不然從WL撈起來等於是中獎

又有一些人离开，还给waitlist 的学生一个小作文，还可以再上载材料，倒是认认真真把 waitlist 的事看得挺严肃。
Y没有ED。算了一下，去年Cornell 录取了4908， 其中early 1930,也就是RD 2978
按68.36%的Yiled rate,最好accept的是3355，去掉1930 early的，regular只有1425 matriculate.1425/2978,实际Yield rate for RD is about 48%
caltech off 0 个，213 个小孩接受上等候名单.

800 是访问学校时 AO 当着满屋的家长和学生说的。
