<p>I recently received an e-mail saying the following:</p>
<p>As you’ve heard from Dean Guttentag, you were part of a small group of particularly outstanding applicants to Duke this year. We call students like you our Top Tier or “T2” applicants, and we’re especially happy that you’re planning to join us on campus this Monday for Blue Devil Days.</p>
<p>what does this mean? is there a such thing as a T1 applicant? if so, how many are there? how many T2 applicants are there? do I get any kinds of special privileges? merit money? bragging rights? a high-5? anything at all? </p>
<p>just a little confused at the moment</p>
