Getting Off College Waiting Lists

Getting Off College Waiting Lists April 12 At Ivy Coach, we help students every year gain admission off college waiting lists. Getting off college waiting lists is more of a science than many believe. So many parents call and write us and say something along these lines: Its a shot in the dark to try to get our kid off the waitlist. Actually, no its not. Many students become our clients for the first time after theyve been notified that theyre on a college waiting list. Its our task to try to help them gain admission off this list. And indeed, over the many years in which weve been in business at Ivy Coach, we have had great success with helping students gain admission off waiting lists at every highly selective college. Yes, even Stanford has gone to their waitlist in the past and weve helped students gain admission off of it (one parent wrote us that Stanford has never gone to their waitlist). Not so, not so! Does every student who we help with their Letter of Enthusiasm gain admission off the waiting list? No. Waiting lists are indeed tough to get off of. And yet we enjoy great successes every year  with our creative, unique approaches to the task. Many parents ask for the percentage chance their son will get off of a certain college waiting list. We dont answer that question. Just like a parent doesnt answer the question of the child in the back seat on a long car ride, Are we there yet? Sometimes a parent will ask twice. We dont answer the second time answer. All we can say is that by working with Ivy Coach on trying to get a son or daughter off a college waiting, you will be giving your son or daughter the best possible chance of gaining admission off that list? Does that mean he or she will definitely get off that waiting list? No. And anyone who says they can definitely get your child off a waiting list should be avoided like Athletes foot. Were not sure why we just referenced Ath letes foot. Gross. But you get the idea.
