Has anyone been on hold for Morgan Stanley's IBD SA position? Do they usually just put everyone from the superday that didn't get an offer on the list or do I have a fair chance of getting off it? I have been looking around WSO and haven't found any information. Thank you!

No, some will be accepted and some will be rejected outright and others will be on the list, to be perfectly honest, given the reputation of MS relatively few people will reject an offer and so the chances of getting off a wait list are likely slim - hope for the best but definitely pursue other opportunities like you've lost this one so you don't miss out elsewhere.
@notthehospitalER Thank you so much for your reply! Have you had any experience with this process? Do you know when I would hear back if they decide not to accept me from the hold list?
I am aware of how it works. It could be a while, because they will give out offers to people first on their list if anyone rejects (ie if spots open up) and then wait and see what they do - if they reject, the offer will be made to the next on the list, and so on and so forth. However if this process happens quickly (ie everyone accepts, for example, or enough people reject so you are top of the wait list and there are spots remaining) you could hear back relatively soon.
@"camw" Have you heard back yet? Also had February non-target superday at MS IBD

@LAist They told me I am on the hold list and would let me know a definite answer sometime in the next few weeks, after they finish their last superdays and figure out who is accepting or denying. Not quite sure how the hold list works though :(
They really said hold list to you? I'm skeptical.
@CountryUnderdog I asked if I was on the waitlist and HR said I was "on hold". I just assumed there was a list of people on hold and referred to it as the "hold list". I am still not quite sure what the difference is between the two. I would appreciate any insight!
There is no difference, on hold = wait list.
Guys, I was put on the hold from the AC hold on October 29th 2016. Ever since, I've talked 2 times with the associate that is following the recruitment. The first time was the Monday after the AC to tell me that I was on hold and I had to wait for 2 weeks for the next AC to be hold. The time past by and nobody called me so I send them an email saying that I was considering other thingside to do, then this guy called me and asked me to wait for the following AC. Right now, I send them another email since they were supposed to contact me last week but nobody did it. What should I do? Thanks guys!
Similar situation! Was supposed to hear back last Monday about a hold situation and heard nothing. I emailed HR last week and got no reply, but they opened my emails over 30 times(I have an email tracker...).
I had a superday with MS S&T. Didn't hear for a week or so and then HR called me saying I was next on the waitlist and that they wanted to know my status. At that point I had already signed with another BB so I told them to take me off.
