[TheThinkTank] Wait list managment

Hello everyone,

Im curious to find out how people are managing wait lists for programs.

More specifically, are you picking students for your programs or is it first come first served on a sign up list.

If you are picking students, what criteria are you using?

We are starting to get more attention than we want to handle at this point. So we have programing slots for 350 students but we have 5-600 students sign up for the wait list. Up until this point we have always done first come first served. But we are trying to avoid telling a kid : Thanks for signing up, we will see you in 8 months when we have an opening.

Thanks Patrick
