Waitlist. Knew it

Don't think I will remain on it long - fortunately, I have other choices that I love.

Good luck to all the rest!

time to F5 the status checker...

Been at it for hours already.

I'm past neurotic. I'm not even working at work anymore. I have my reports open but I'm either refreshing this thread/the status checker or thinking about a LOCI...

I went DLS (or the DLS equivalent) this morning, and the status checker hasn't updated since then.

First waitlist of the cycle.

Was hoping for an acceptance although I wouldn't have ended up going there anyway since in at Berkeley (im from Cali) and Chicago.

Regular decision, no priority track.


Best to everyone, congrats to those accepted.

DLS means decision letter sent/decision emailed? Sorry, it strangely enough wasn't on the lingo thread, but that's what I figured.

Haha it's also not what the status checker says at all, that was my laziness in typing. What it actually says is: "Decision made; watch for email" and it's said that since ~9am EST.

Ah, gotcha.

I creeped you a little, congrats on your other offers though! I'm in at UVA but concerned I wont receive scholarship info. I feel like Duke is harder to get into than UVA though, and I was rejected at Berkeley. So I wouldn't be surprised with a waitlist. Hoping for a Priority Reserve. But would be really happy of course if I'm in haha

[jotx]

waitlisted too

I believe (and anyone can correct me) that Priority Reserve can only be accessed if you started on Priority Track. Maybe I'm misunderstanding.

And thanks for the congratulations. It has been a pleasantly surprising cycle but (with the stress) I'm glad it's almost over

[ChocoFreeze]

waitlisted too

Were you UR2 today?

I understood the Priority Reserve to be basically another waitlist that Duke dips into before the actual waitlist below it. But a lot of people are confused about Priority Reserve so maybe I'm wrong too.

I was put on the Priority Reserve waitlist today, and I did not start on PT.

Well there you go! Good luck to those waiting - and on PR!

[WhiteHouse]

So do we know what time of day they stop with acceptances? Should I just wait for tomorrow?

[gobears!!]

UR2 yesterday but didn't get a decision along with some of my fellow 2/16ers. Purgatory is never ending.

According to their website, Duke doesn't do waves. They release a decision as it is made.

Perhaps some helpful information re Priority Reserve/Waitlist:

Priority Reserve is the waitlist they look at first when trying to fill voids in the class. When filling empty spaces, they look at numbers/diversity/whatever else they need. If they don't find someone suitable to fill that void on PR, they'll turn to the waitlist. PR just gets first look when filling empty spots in the class.

Source: Conversation with Dean Hoye last cycle.

Hope this helps.

Re: scholarship interview, if they ask "Any questions?" at the end of the interview, I could ask questions abt Duke in general (pros, programs, etc), just like I'm doing an admission interview, without being limited to only financial aid questions, correct? Or does it depend on the interviewer (adcom vs FA officer)?
