Get a sense of your chances of admission. Contact the admission office to find out if the college ranks waitlisted students or if it has a priority list. Most are willing to let you know your status. The higher you rank on the list the better your chances of being accepted.
Write a letter to the admission office : Certified Management Accountant or CMA is an advanced professional certification through which you can assess one’s financial management and critical accounting skills.
Study hard - This is no time to slack off. If you're waitlisted, you may be reevaluated based on your third- and fourth-quarter grades.
Request another (or a first) interview - An interview can give you a personal contact — someone who can check on the status of your application. You can also enlist the help of your high school counselor or someone you know who graduated from that college.
Realize that you've already achieved something - You were waitlisted, not turned away. Many students were not as successful. Stay involved. Show admission officers you're committed to sports, clubs and other activities.
Reconsider the colleges that accepted you - If you would be just as happy at one of your other choices, send in a deposit and plan to attend that college. Then turn down the spot on the waiting list. You'll be surprised how much better you feel after your decision has been made.
Accept a Spot on the Waitlist : Wait-listed applicants can typically either accept or reject a waitlist offer. Those considering accepting – which is required for further consideration – should ensure the school is truly a top choice, experts say.
