Duke Waitlist Discussion

Hi! I made this in general to discuss Duke waitlist so we know when it moves.

Hi! My ā€˜25 also accepted a Duke waitlist spot.

Saw that some people already got accepted off the waitlist? Did anyone here?

Hi, where did you see that the wait list has already moved? My kiddo saw one post on Tik Tok but it was a report of one kid who was ā€œa friend of a friendā€ so didn’t seem all that believable.

Based on previous years, people should have already been getting off. Any waitlist movement yet?

I’ve been checking here and on Reddit and haven’t seen anything yet about any waitlist movement. I suspect this means that they will not be needing to use the WL as much this year as in the past two years. I have seen that Duke admissions state that they will move to the waitlist prior to May 1st ā€œif they need toā€, so this might be a sign that they are not needing to move to the WL. Given how crazy competitive this admissions cycle was, it’s probable that many kids had fewer acceptances to their reach schools and thus less choice of which T20 to attend - meaning kids with Duke offers might have been more likely to accept them than the last two years, when they might have been choosing between Duke and 1-2 (or more) ivies.

So I guess we’re in unknown territory with the Trinity waitlist. Haven’t seen anyone anywhere with an offer. Really thought they’d try to get some out before the weekend. Maybe their yield is just crazy high this year …

Hi all, did students in trinity get confirmation that their LOCI was received? I’ve seen some people on reddit received such confirmations for Pratt

Just received an email to reply of interest is high and submitted. This is for trinity. Not sure if that means I’m in

hey, exactly which time did you receive the email? I know they sent out a wave around noontime, but I was wondering if they’re sending out more throughout the day

Around 1pm est

I’m pretty sure they only send those emails to students they want to accept since if the student says no they’ll forget about them and if they say yes, they’ll move forward with an acceptance. Not really any other reason for confirming interest.

Not sure though, so don’t assume anything.

Hey! I’m on the Pratt waitlist currently. Have any international students gotten in?
