Drake, Creighton, Texas Tech, Valpo, etc. Waitlist

[newkirk101]

I am currently on several waitlists: Drake, Valpo, Texas Tech, Chapman, and Deferred at Creighton.  I heard through the grapevine that some schools rarely reject anyone one their waitlist.  Have any of you heard of this?  Any chance I will have at these schools or is there anything I can do to increase my chances?  Thank you.  One more thing,  Chiasu gives very little info on the entire applicant pool so if anyone knows what my chances are to get off these waitlists let me know.

I think a lot will depend on how strong your application is, what are your numbers like?
