Denials / Re: Wisconsin "On Hold" Still?!?!?!
« on: July 14, 2006, 12:17:02 PM »
I know HippieLawChick was taken off the list last summer sometime in late July and was able defer to this fall. I've heard that there are some people so dead set on UW that they go there the first day of orientation in case some people don't show up. For people like you (and me) who have other options in much different geographic regions, it's borderline impossible. But for someone that needs to stay in Wisconsin and is going to Marquette (or else one of the Chicago schools), it's not as big of a deal.
I think what it comes down to is that they have X number of people going (which was indicated to be more than 300 from the last time I heard from UW). So more than 30 people would have to withdraw between then and the start of classes for them to even go to the hold list (since their preferred class size is 270). They won't ding anyone on that list because they don't know if they need to go to it yet.
I was willing to wait into the summer since I'm only about an hour a way right now, but I sent my deposit to my place in Tempe yesterday, and withdrew this morning.
