Isn't the wait list by order of application only AFTER the deadline? I applied a couple of days after the application opened to everyone, and I'm fifth, which makes sense because my average was 77.83%. |

Not sure, I guess that would also make sense. I couldn't find anything on their website about it though. There could also be a chance that people haven't signed up before you, a vast majority of people procrastinate after all.

I'm pretty sure that's how it works, I read it somewhere on the website, can't remember where though.
EDIT: Here it is. http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /calen...07/sec_927.htm |

I know that the lottery is based on marks, but I've never read that then waiting list was... Oh well, it doesn't really matter to me. If anyone wants to know they could just give housing a call.

That should be the case... As spots open up they will be filled by the waitlist.
