I can totally understand the parents being turned off by Duke’s waitlisting or rejecting their kids. I would be too if Duke turned my really qualified child away without explanation after I had stayed involved with the school years after my graduation. That said, I am sure your really qualified kids have gotten and will get into other great schools and end up doing great wherever they go, and I am guessing that if they had applied early decision to Duke their admissions situations might have ended up going differently.
