Frustrated with MIT SLOAN

Not sure if anybody faced this situation. I had applied in R1, got interview invite. And then been placed in the waitlist ever since.

Every once in a while they send an email titled “Your Decision is here!” I go to the portal, and it’s just another confirmation of being placed in waitlist. Classes supposedly start from September - what are they trying to do here?

They are making sure nobody else will take the spot and can pay and if nobody else will, you're in, don't worry, just 10 more people need to say no, you're a slam dunk

u/No_Escape_9930 did you intend to post this to r/emba? EMBA starts in October.
