Wondering the same thing! Do you all think that waitlist movement is over?
The posts in the help me decide threads have some really strong other offers, also people could still get off waitlists for other schools. I think unfortunately this was probably the largest wave but there hopefully might still be some smaller movement in the next few weeks! (I do think we would have to wait until at least May 11th, although I would love for them call me today and prove me wrong lmao)
I sent a letter of intent and couple updates ( didn’t get off the waitlist though). Based on all the options in the help me forum looks like a lot of people didn’t send them ( duke prolly doesn’t care much about them).
Lol I hope. Seems like it’s mostly done after the first day.
I think it’s fair to ask cause I would definitely try to plan for next year. I’m basically treating the situation as if I won’t get off the waitlist because then I’ll be prepared 🙈
Congratulations! Do you know if they'll award you your scholarship/financial aid package before you have to make a decision?
I have no clue when I'll hear about that, but I was given 1 week to make my decision.
We’re only at 86 for the committed groupme.
Does the GroupMe only have people who have committed or is it also people who have been accepted?
Committed only. For every 1 person self-declaring commited I want to say theres 4 accepted because the accepted FB group is growing much faster than the groupme.
Not sure if I understand correctly - as in do they have a full class of "Committed" students? No one knows that, just conjecture from groupme membership counts. Although surely not. A from WL offers take time - students need to get fin aid, maybe negotiate, etc. Other Duke students will take other offers from schools they are WL'd by (until the CTE date), making more room etc. Things will continue to shuffle for the next couple of weeks and then it'll really die out.
Probably yeah the class seems full. At this point its just gonna be based on whether that last few who were accepted decide to commit or not.
@allseasons, haven't you made a final commitment to a school by now?
yup, I go to a school with clinicals pass/fail no internal rank. There's only 5 schools in the country (that I know of) that do that as of 2021-22, but during my interviews Duke and Vanderbilt mentioned that they were considering making that same move. I was wondering whether that ultimately ended up passing. Still have some friends applying rn and they wanted to go to a school with pass/fail clinicals, which triggered my curiosity.
