Long story short: I have been waitlisted at 5 schools. Sent 2 loci, visited. It's been 3 weeks with no answer. I want to keep in touch. Should I send a quick email? What should I say? Is it appropriate to send a transcript addendum?
Waitlists don't start moving until after seat deposits are due, usually first week of May. Perfectly normal to have not heard anything back at this point. Hang in there, things are about to start shaking up!

What if it's a May-entry program at my top choice?
Hi! Ack! No word yet, huh? For the May-entry program - my guess is that perhaps you were not accepted to that program since its already May and presumabley classes would start in a few short weeks. You can always call the school and check in and tell them you applied for the May-entry program but have not heard. Perhaps the school is pushing you back to the fall?
What would be the transcript addendum? Final grades or another letter?

I recently posted a new lesson about waitlists: https://7sage.com/admissions/lesson/what-to-do-after-you-get-waitlisted/
I hope it's helpful!
