Robertson Scholarship at Duke and UNC-Chapel Hill

Okay, so, my semi-finalist kid was outright rejected from Duke ED. Not even deferred. She also applied to UNC, for EA. (UNC has seemed even more of a long shot, given that she’s out of state and given her high school’s admissions history there.) I know Robertson has a separate admissions process, and being a semi-finalist is no guarantee, but everyone says the Robertson people are in close contact with the colleges’ admissions offices and I’m confused that they’d waste a semi-finalist slot on someone who wasn’t being accepted. Has anyone heard of a semi-finalist being rejected from both schools? Trying to manage expectations. thanks!

Maybe they felt she is a better fit for UNC?

Anyone hear from Robertson on being a semifinalist please?

Yes, end of December. From what I read in this thread, they were rolling the calls/emails, not sending all at the same time. I don’t know until when
