i know duke has priority track that gives you a decision in 10 days

any other schools known for being particularly fast in their decisions (excluding ED)?

Is priority track by invitation only? Or how can you opt for priority track (i.e. why doesn't everyone applying to DUke do it?)?

University of Texas has their non-binding early action decision process, but they call it Early Decision.

They rejected me in six days, so I'd say that's a pretty fast response time.

W&M is very fast with scholly acceptances. Everyone else has to wait until March.

Georgia was super fast for pretty much everyone, though there were a few holds.

im not sure but i suspect it would be based on some profiles at lsn

im at/over their 75% and i was told by a former applicant that i'm golden for one, and you are pretty close to their 75% so i think you'd be ok too
