YES

For context, WEPO is a selective study abroad program run by my college. I submitted my application over a month ago, and I was interviewed by the admissions committee last week. There's no longer anything I can do to influence my chance of acceptance, so why am I asking this question? The main purpose is psychological calibration. If the market says my chances of acceptance are low, I can brace myself for bad news.

I promise not to trade on this market after receiving my admissions decision.

Congrats! Glad I was wrong

Base rates (I have no particular knowledge of this program, but most things are competitive)

@toms I didn't include base rate information because I don't have exact numbers, but rumor has it that last year's acceptance rate was about 1/5.

bought Ṁ40 YES

@MilesKodama Sure, base rates, but I have reason to believe you're a stronger candidate than most.

bought Ṁ5 NO
