    Will we get an owl if we are on the waiting list? The anticipation is killing me

    Yes, all applicants will hear one way or the other. It might take several days though.

    Yes! Can't wait! I hope I get an owl! Anyone else in the Philadelphia area running the Firebolt 5k on October 17th at the Harry Potter festival in Chestnut Hill?

    So, I got wait listed. Which is the saddest thing in the world. Just wondering- will I be told whether or not I make it?

    As spots open up throughout the challenge (people drop out, etc) we go through the waitlist in order. Spots do open up, don't despair!

    However, if you don't make it in this term, you'll be notified when enrollment starts for next term before the general public.

    Really bummed... was waitlisted.

    Is there roll-over enrollment for previous house members (means fewer spots for the incoming/applying hopefuls)? :(

    I am so disappointed! I was waitlisted. Hoping I can get in soon?
    It seems with all the interest in such an awesome group challenge, maybe each house could get bigger. If there were more people willing to lead each house? More head girls and guys...
    I understand it is a huge amount of work to run the group. Just something to consider. I really feel I could be successful with my weight loss goals if I had a challenge like this to participate in.
    Thanks!

    We actually increased house size last term, due to the response, but we are at a number we feel is manageable and don't currently plan to increase again. As you can understand, we all do this voluntarily while holding down pesky muggle jobs as well.

    However, don't despair! Waitlisters do get called up to the big leagues! Stay patient!

    Bummer! I am also on the waitlist. Good luck to every one still waiting for word one way or the other. And to everyone who received a position this term, have lots of fun!

    Fingers crossed for the Hufflepuff house. Looking at the other responses - the houses may be mostly filled, but this is an awesome set up for a challenge!

    What if we hit our weight loss goal during the challenge? Should we keep going for this or are we dropped or something?

    We allow for maintenance and even weight gainers. You can switch from losing to maintaining at any point.
