The thought of waiting until at least late May for a final decision sounds unbearable at this point. So I'll make a final decision myself I'd stick it out for Chi at least...they do wp sometimes, I'd expect you to get in by mid April with $$

reserve at Columbia=waitlist, hold=deferred right???

The word "reserve" still makes me feel better about it though.I think "reserve" is worse than "waitlist", at least at Cornell. They review some apps and take them off the reserve and place on a smaller waitlist...so pretty much another cycle but only for WL this time around.
Dinged at BC today after being deferred for months...ugh. At least they were kind enough not to wait until their deadline to do so. (their deadline to mail out decisions is 2/29.)
