Only a small percentage of all applicants was selected for a waitlist.

Any chance for those applicants who didn't get waitlisted?

Any chance for those applicants who didn't get waitlisted?

Yes, we are taking the time to go over all the applications that came. If you did not get the rejection, there is still a chance.
