I have just received notification that I have been put on the waiting list and should expect a final decision later this spring. What are the chances of getting in and when would I expect a decision? I also applied to NYU and Michigan and didn't get in, but got accepted to Northwestern and the Fletcher School of Diplomacy. I'm still waiting on Georgetown and Leiden University. Any suggestions are appreciated!

I also applied to NYU and just received a rejection, but applied to Fordham and have gotten in. If anyone has an opinion on the odds of the waitlist I'd love to hear it... or if you know how big the waitlist at this stage in CLS is? Thanks!

That makes me doubt if i'm at the bottom of the list or what. Given that I applied before and that they said that my file was gonna be reviewed with everyone else, it's kindda strange that other s have been admitted or rejected or waitlisted and nothing for me. At this point, no news might be good news? Is anyone else in the same position?

What you say might be true, but from what I've read in other posts, most people accepted to HLS are dropping their seats at CLS, so it shouldnt be lots of spots, but at the end of the monnth some new seats should be available. In my particular case, I applied early review and they deferred me. They could have just rejected me, so I thinkl that means that I wanst at the top of the pool, but wanst at the bottom either. In that sense, I still have my hope up. I beleive that the end of the month should bring news, good ro bad, but news at the end.

First it was the application process and now the decision making process - going slowly crazy!
