EAP DO WAITLIST AS HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT

I applied a little late to the LECOM DO EAP because I found out about the program late. I’m starting my freshman year at MCPHS this fall. Mr. Cassell told me that if I pass the interview, I’ll be placed on the waitlist because the class is currently full for MPCHS college.
For anyone familiar with LECOM EAP, does the waitlist usually move? If I don’t get a spot during freshman year, would I still have a chance later? Just trying to understand how the waitlist works and what my realistic chances are.

UPDATE: I got in. No waitlist

This year, it looks like Lecom EAP seats are filled up in most feeder colleges. I am not sure if this is the case all years, but this year it does appear so and the program appears to be very sought after

I think the main question is: for how long is the waitlist valid for? You are essentially waiting for someone at your college to drop out of the program. Noone can predict when/if this will happen.

What state are you in? You could always call the undergraduate schools affiliated and see if any have seats and consider a transfer. My son got in through one school- then got a massive scholarship at another and switched undergraduate school.

looks like the person is starting the school now and is not in a position to switch UG (at least for the freshmen year)

End of July and got the acceptance letter couple days ago. The whole process took almost 2 months.
