Wait List Acceptance Rate

The University of Chicago's wait list acceptance rate for the application year 2024 stands at 3.0%, with 18 out of 600 wait listed applicants granted admission. This marks a notable increase in activity as previous years had no admissions from the wait list, resulting in a historical acceptance rate of 0% from 2020 to 2023. The significant jump to 3% suggests a potential shift in the university's wait list dynamics, although it remains to be seen if this trend will continue in future application cycles.
