What does accepting a waitlist offer mean?

Accepting a waitlist offer means that you decided to accept a spot on the college’s waitlist. Before you decide, find out whether there are any conditions attached to being waitlisted. For example, because you’re notified later than other applicants, you may have fewer housing and financial aid options.

Keep in mind that college waitlist offers aren’t binding. You won’t be required to attend the college if they accept you from the waitlist.
