Stanford waitlist emails

I'd like to know where I sit in the Stanford pure math waitlist. I've emailed three addresses (two different addresses for the "director of graduate studies", who initially emailed me to say i've been waitlisted, and one email to "mathgradadmissions@..."). These were sent over two weeks ago, but I have not yet received a reply.

Is anyone else in a similar boat? Has anyone successfully heard back since enquiring about waitlist positions?

Got waitlisted by Vanderbilt and I sent them an email asking about my waitlist position. Sent this on 10th March. No reply yet. I think that’s how most grad schools work. Hoping for the best :)

I emailed 3 schools regarding my application status more than a week ago, but i haven't heard back from any of them. (Not Stanford though)

I received a reply from the graduate admissions person at Stanford:
I am sorry but I still can not say anything about the waitlist - the situation is completely unclear.
I hope there is more clarity at the beginning of April but at this point I can not say anything because
I do not know anything myself.
