Duke Waitlist 2014 (c/o 2017)

Didn't see this thread anywhere.
Looks like there's a Priority Reserve and a regular Waitlist.
TLSers reported WL pulls as early as March 14 and as late as Aug 5 (with money, nonetheless). Some pulls reported a call from the school ahead of the admission email.

Thanks for creating this thread. Ii'm on the waitlist for summer LLM program.
Anyone know if there's a priority reserve for the summer start program, or just the regular waitlist? Not sure where I stand right now.

I was WL'd way back in Nov. Haven't written a LOCI yet, bc I wanted it to be fresh when they start reviewing the WL.

I'm on the WL for the summer LLM program as well! I'm on a (regular)wait list as well, i believe, but i'm also not sure if they have a "priority reserve" for us Summer starters... Good luck to both of us!
PS: do you mind sharing your stats~? PM me if u don't feel comfortable sharing on public..
mine was 169/3.5... i applied for the Summer LLM in International/Comparative Law~

167/3.85, same LLM. Educated guess is that there's no priority reserve for us, only because I've never seen one anywhere. Best of luck! Would you mind PM'img me if/when you hear, so I know if there's been movement?

I'm part of the regular WL crowd. So hoping to get admitted, Duke is my 1st choice

I'm on this list for the long haul. Anyone know generally how many people get off the priority list vs. the regular waitlist?

Sorry guys, I meant IN as in I'm in for the waiting list action. I would never be callous enough to come bragging about acceptance in a WL thread.

Ah, I see.
Well, if you DO get in, you should let us know, as I'm sure many WLers would want to know numbers/dates/PRvsWL etc

I wouldn't consider that callous, especially since (as jk alluded to), inquiring minds would love to know stats/details.

Does anyone know the material difference between PR and WL? From the email I got on Monday it seems like they want people to really, really hammer home their interest in Duke and that there's a good possibility of getting in from PR
I just wanna know how long I should realistically wait before depositing

From the sounds of things, Duke's class is pretty full right now MIT doesn't seem as though there will be much movement off the WL, but we will see...

I believe this is based on the responses from Dean Hoye to TLSers requesting deposit extensions. They aren't being granted.
