Well, at least the coordinator is straight-forward about it. Emailed the coordinator and they said the official letter may come tomorrow on the system. Had epsilon expectation after learning that I'm not invited to visit day so it doesn't hurt too bad.

I had not heard anything from them since my interview until March 31. POI contacted me saying I had been on the waitlist up until now and they wanted to make an offer if I was still interested. Will attend! He said they will finalize admissions and send out the final rejection letters later this week.

Not WL. At this point, should we just be expecting rejections?
