Being waitlisted isn’t as crushing a result as being
rejected, but it can feel like you’ve been exiled to admissions purgatory. It’s important to know if your waitlisted status means you still have a serious shot at being admitted to your first-choice university or if it’s the equivalent of a Powerball ticket. For example, at Middlebury, Brandeis, Georgetown, Tulane, and UPenn somewhere between zero and 20 students are likely to be plucked from the waitlist. On the other hand, Colorado College, Cornell, Lehigh, Williams, and William & Mary all
took more than 60 students off of their waitlists. The following table indicates waitlist statistics at some of America’s most selective colleges and universities for the 2019-20 academic year.

Our sample of waitlist statistics from 138 private and public institutions paints the following picture:
- On average, 11 percent of students accepting a place on a waitlist were admitted
- 71 percent of the schools admitted 10 percent or less of the students accepting a place on the wait list last year
- 57 percent of the schools admitted 5 percent or less
- 24 percent admitted no one
There are several factors driving the low rates, including the size of the waitlist [often very large], and how well a school anticipates its admissions yield.
