Just an early Good Luck to all ED applicants tonight. No idea of numbers but Iād expect little decrease in applicants and similar acceptance rates from last year.
Thereās a lot of factors in the process many having nothing to do with academic readiness. We will seeā¦

Whatās odd though is the amount of discussion on here compared to this time last year is way down. I think morning of, there were over 500 comments and weāre sitting at 65. I honestly think there were less ED applications this year, at least at Duke.

Thereās no press release either yet. Historically Duke has a chronicle article revealing stats. Maybe weād need to wait some more for the details to come out.

I agree. It traditionally comes out when they announce when decisions are being released. This year has definitely been odd.

I was wondering the same about a press release. I wasnāt sure if they typically send the press release before or after they checked their portals.
Good luck everyone!

Typically before
Please just keep posting, everyone! Reading these makes me feel like Iām getting some kind of information and gives me something to do. Fooling myself into thinking it will somehow be helpful when I know that Duke is an incredibly long shot. Losing my mind waiting for 7PM! Feels like weāve been holding our breath for weeks alongside DS. Good luck to all awaiting results!

When my 2018 daughter was admitted RD, the page was down for a period of time before the decision release that day.

Essays,LOR are imo well prepared
Awards: a couple regional competitions and some accolades for the research and its program here in NC
No hooks whatsoever
Apologize for that last post was attempting to write a couple items:
Have watched these posts for last few years attempting to get a general idea of stats required for different schools since Iām applying now as a senior. Iād agree- seems very quiet this year on this one. Read extensive data from College board regarding applications since Covid.
Northeast had a surge of ED increases- example is BC +50% this year. Selective schools are being targeted as possible acceptances whereas prior scores would have tamped it down.TO definitely in play. I feel for students that have a ādream schoolā especially legacy which feel somewhat slighted at times but these schools are again accepting on many factors.
The first acceptance was posted by a QB applicant accepted and its imo the way it should be; diversity is important to Duke and a reason I applied ED coming from rural NC.
Again GL.
Lastly Iāll post stats prior to decisions. Looking at prior years I donāt have a good idea about chances.
4.0uw/ 4.65 W with another 4 additional college grade of A first quarter
1/200
Very rural NC school
12 DE with another 3-4 next semester for 15 total
Research , 1.5 Years with Journal publication pending last revision.

Thanks @hopewhite25 - I was freaking out for a few. Worried more for my son - weāre ready for the decision tonight

I read an article that said that if they arenāt boasting about breaking the record, then it is lower than last year. Yale posted their stats and its lower, not by a lot, but it didnāt exceed last year.
