Wait List
The number of students who accept Dartmouth’s offer of admission varies from year to year. Accordingly, the College maintains a wait list of applicants who may be re-considered for admission – typically between mid-May and July 1 for first-year applicants, and early-June to July 1 for transfer applicants.
Generally, fewer than 10 percent of applicants are offered a place on the wait list, and the number of candidates offered admission from the wait list varies, from zero in some years to dozens in others.
