Waitlisted yet again…

Hey y’all. I applied to three schools, interviewed at all three, and just now received my third waitlist.

Did I apply late in the cycle? Yep. Was it silly of me to bank on the three schools closest to me? Sure. Does it still sting to not see an acceptance? Yes!!!!

I don’t know if I can endure a summer of torturous waiting to see where my future will lie. Does anyone have any success stories of being pulled off the waitlist because this feels worse than a rejection.
