if they're going to pull people from the regular wait list, would that mean everyone on the PR is getting in?

Per my conversation with Hoye, showing interest is one of the biggest factors they consider when pulling candidates off PR/the waitlist. Now is a great time to reach out to them.

Are you talking about the email about staying on the waitlist or did you get a separate email?

Is the interview opportunity only granted to PR candidate? I am willing to do anything to strengthen my application.

To those who have been accepted, mind sharing what you did to show interest between being put on the wait list and being accepted? LOCI(s)/LOR(s)/etc?

Radio silence over here. I'm trying not to let the anxiety get to me. But failing.

No news on the wait list page either. I thought I heard the deadline for PR admits is the 15th? So maybe some movement then? Plus double-deposited people will trickle away.

Can confirm the 15th as the deadline for PR admits.

So if we haven't been admitted by May 15th, that means we've been rejected? Did you guys hear this during a PR interview?

Not at all. But the PR individuals who were admitted were given a May 15th deadline

ETA: USN does a much better job of explaining.

No no no. Those who *were* on the PR list who *have been accepted* must deposit or decline by the 15th. Those of us who haven't just remain on the list. The importance of that date to us is that if those who were admitted decide not to go to Duke, spots might open up for us.

If anyone has been taken of the regular WL I haven't seen it on TLS. (Maybe you could glean something on LSN? I'm LSN illiterate.)

LSN doesn't differentiate between WL and PR. I haven't seen or heard anyone reporting acceptance from the WL yet, either.

I'm thinking you could look into the profiles to see if they specified?

But I mean I'm spiraling into neurotic applicant mode and that's too much effort even for me.
