And I started to say random stuff

And I had to correct what I saying so I wouldn’t embarrass myself by making no sense

😭

[fervent vapor]

[dry magnet]

22 minutes now

Good luck

[fervent vapor]

ohh ok

[fervent vapor]

u 2

I mean i didn't interview so I guess this is a rejection

[dry magnet]

It doesn’t mean rejection

[dry magnet]

it looks like we're basically the only people who applied 😭

[unreal tide]

I applied to dku

[fervent vapor]

lol

[foggy fjord]

how am i on the rankings

what's my rank

[umbral sonnet]

I swear I applied by mistake 🤦🏿

[fervent vapor]

[dry magnet]

hi fellow dku applicant

[umbral sonnet]

What’s up

So only two of yall applied

[unreal tide]

we will get in

[dry magnet]

im assuming almost everyone who applied to dku also applied to duke

😭

[unreal tide]

I mean its on the duke common app

[fervent vapor]

that's prob true

[umbral sonnet]

Yeh that’s true

[fervent vapor]

I mean I just discovered dku because of duke's common app

[unreal tide]

I also discovered dku on the duke common app

[dry magnet]

my interviewer is based in nc 💀

[dry magnet]

so basically we all discovered dku there

[fervent vapor]

did you received an invitation for this interview or it was on their portal to ask for one?

[dry magnet]

i got an invitation

[unreal tide]

invitation via email

[fervent vapor]

ohh ok

u in I believe so

like just based on assumption

[foggy fjord]

[foggy fjord]

it seems everyone got the interview but me

[unreal tide]

nah a lot of people didn't

[umbral sonnet]

Nah I didn’t

[foggy fjord]

how was fnaf 2 yall

[fervent vapor]

I didn't also

[unreal tide]

they only had about 250 interview slots for like 6000 rd applicants

[fervent vapor]

neither for duke 💀

[unreal tide]

duke interview doesn't matter low key

[foggy fjord]

who said so

[unreal tide]

acceptance rate about the same

for interview and non interview

t-minus two minutes

[foggy fjord]

is it bad luck that everytime i get a decision i need to pee

[umbral sonnet]

I gotta pee too so Ionk

[violet jungle]

try appealing, its always worth a shot imo

[umbral basalt]

Yeah I'll try.

Also is it possible to get summer internships there ?

I've heard that the top US schools offer this but idk about DKU...

[opal hornet]

how tf i got waitlisted at dku ☠️

yo china wants me so bad

[thin prairie]

why is it called duke white dots

[prisma quail]

white dot on banner that's blue

[plain plover]

so funny story

duke’s portal has a singular period u can copy in its banner

thats left over from the design of the website

and people on reddit found it and have been going insane

because half of people see a white dot and the other a blue dot

and its only because of the os (apple vs windows etc) that causes it

[thin prairie]

😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭

ts only could happen on a2c

[umbral basalt]

Need based.

55%

[dreamy snow]

LMFAOOO

[craggy cave]

Rejected

[analog walrus]

Does Duke ever admit low stats kids

[lavish hatch]

If they have a blue dot then yes

[analog walrus]

Wait what does this mean

What does white dots mean

[golden tiger]

blue mean they got in?

[analog walrus]

😭😭😭

[native steppe]

Purple dot is for athletes

[dim wadi]

waitlisted DKU

[lavish hatch]

Secret gray color prob does

[fallow bronze]

did you apply to white dot?

[dim wadi]

yea

[fallow bronze]

good luck!

[maiden apex]

Any deferred people here 😢

[unreal hazel]

I got duke kunshan waitlist

😔

[foggy fjord]

how are you even deferred now?

[maiden apex]

im asking if anyone who was deferred ed is waiting for rd rn

[keen fulcrum]

How high was your CSS profile if I could ask?

[umbral basalt]

380,000 Moroccan Dirhams which is probably equivalent to 41,000 USD

So yeah

definitely my fault here

I did it mostly for the US colleges. I couldn't change the value for each college

[keen fulcrum]

That's your contribution which you inputed or what css calculated? Becouse if you intentionally put that I think it might be hard for them to make higher aid /:

[umbral basalt]

Intentionally...

So yeah

I can only blame myself.

Now I gotta work my ass off and find a way to afford the school or lower the price tag

[keen fulcrum]

I hope you will succeed

[sonic flint]

whens duke releasing

[umbral basalt]

The Durham one ?

March 31st

7pm Eastern Time

[bleak oasis]

pls accept me

i got destroyed by ivies

[forest bison]

At this point, I’m just opening rejections

[lofty charm]

Fr

But duke is still my top choice

I was lowk fine getting rejected from ivies, but I’m gonna lose myself if I don’t get Duke

I’ve been hyping up this place way too long

[dreamy snow]

Waiting on duke!

[bleak oasis]

waiting on my rejection letter

[forest bison]

Friend said I seem like a duke person

[lucid sierra]

💔

good luck man

[mossy pier]

My only hope

[native steppe]

gl blue dots and white dots

[lofty charm]

Thanks 🙏🏾 js praying

[fallow bronze]

not tryna be miss portal astrology here but was there actually a reason for this

[still dome]

whats the reason

[crystal flower]

people were getting diff colors on mac vs windows so

[opal anchor]

likely just placeholder for when they say decisions are available on the day

[slender canopy]

eyy

[dusty axle]

Duke University (2025-2026)

[mossy pier]

Does anyone else have under review on their slate for Duke?

Some people are saying that it means u went to final round but with decisions in like 4 days why am I still under review lol

while everyone else is complete

[prisma quail]

I do

but uh,,, I was thinking that meant a rejection 💔

[modest oasis]

Have there been any intl students asking for aid that have gotten in without an idoc? Had an interview early March but wasn’t asked for tax returns or anything

[mossy pier]

One thing I can infer from this is each school has their own classification

decided complete awaiting all can mean numerous things

but under review seems like we might’ve made it into later rounds

or like atleast someone in the committee is fighting for us lol idk

I’m hoping

cause I see much more decided complete etc then I do under review

[frigid isle]

That's ok guys

If you got rejected from all Ivies - there's always a slim chance for yall. Mb it's not that big, but only 31st of March will show it. College admissions are just a lottery, where you need a good ticket

I think everyone here is qualified enough for all of this, it just breaks down to luck

[fresh turtle]

my status in slate changed

to Application Decided: Decision Pending/Released

omg duke pls come in clutch

[mossy pier]

What’s ur stats?

Was it under review before?

[fresh turtle]

yeah

im rd applicant so it was under review and changed to Application Decided: Decision Pending/Released like today

[fresh turtle]

1520 sat, ib 44 pred

intl ecs

awards

all physics phys major intended

no luck from ivies

so hoping duke goes well

wbu? @mossy pier

[mossy pier]

IB 44 predicted sat optional no awards 7 figure start up, successful food joint first dish kind in my country, orthodontic mouthguard with patent filing, managed and grew a political account to 650,000 followers

I think under review is iffy people

but better chances imo then rejects

Why would they take so long to just reject us

I got into CMU and UNC OOS so it’s definitely not impossible

[kindred river]

im also ib 44 pred, sat optional 2 intl academic awards 1 intl sport award, 1 research paper, raised 25k for sports training and equipment for underprivileged department of our school as sports captain of my school, marketing head for a tech symposium with 1500+ participants, intership at indias 2nd ranked telecom company. am i cooked?

where to check?

[buoyant mural]

forgot ts counted as astro nvm

[kindred river]

if youre comfortable sharing, could you dm me then?

[buoyant mural]

discord restricted my dms lmfao

so i cant even if I wanted to for a week

[kindred river]

😭

[fresh turtle]

what was this bruh

[buoyant mural]

the wind

[fleet scroll]

mine is still under review

[dreamy snow]

Mine changed to decisions releasing something

[bleak oasis]

I got absolutely destroyed by college apps

[runic elbow]

When is duke coming out

[fresh turtle]

next tuesday

[runic elbow]

Gold pls

Let me in

Just one chance

[native steppe]

Where r u seeing this

Wat mean

[bleak oasis]

i think this is a good sign

[limpid citrus]

If it changed several days ago it's a good sign

[native steppe]

advanced astrology

Where r y'all getting this info 😭

[limpid citrus]

I don't know, someone made a comparison for when your Slate status changes, and cracked people changed first

[sturdy saffron]

wait my gtech one says decision released

idk if that’s good I mean I got deferred ea

[limpid citrus]

Mines is still Application Complete & Under Review

Rip for me 😭

[safe coral]

oh no 😭😭😭😭

Same @bleak oasis

any waitlist?

[bleak oasis]

Only JHU, washu, rice, and Vanderbilt

Ivies full wipe

Stanford and Duke my last hope

[native cave]

where do yall check this

[delicate cape]

start.edu

[native cave]

i dont have an acc

can i make one?

[foggy fjord]

how did you see ur status

[mossy pier]

Please think logically rather then using causation = correlation

[mossy pier]

I made a good post explaining my thoughts on it

slate CAN never accurately depict a accept reject or waitlist this isn’t Astro in any means,
But with info that your decision is still being made thinking logically you can assume auto admits and auto rejects are gone, this is so late in the cycle and so close to the deadline they’re most likely building class body and seeing what borderline admits fit into accepts and what fit into waitlists. and that’s pretty valuable info to know

[plain plover]

clock it

100% true

[native steppe]

So I'm an auto accept

💯

[mossy pier]

Haha hopefully

I hope there’s very few entrepreneurs applying to Duke

I genuinely think that’s the only reason I could get in

I heard Duke likes unique ppl much more then t10s like I got rejected from Wharton but the ratio of entrepreneurs in the cycle compared to Duke trinity is definitely a lot more

Let’s see

[torn pasture]

this is my last school LOL

[dry magnet]

I have BU and Duke

[dreamy snow]

Thats what I have

[golden cipher]

duke

I loved duke but I loved Davidson more

[hallow oyster]

Heyy

[safe coral]

we got this!!!

[hallow oyster]

Gl gl

[dry magnet]

Which major did you guys put

[frigid isle]

So guys

This will be my last decision

Acceptance or a rejection - it's both fine

[frigid isle]

I don't remember, but either Economics or Business

[dry magnet]

I did English/Theater Studies

[frigid isle]

Ooo, I see some future Shakespeare

[dreamy snow]

Biology

[frigid isle]

Apparently

[dreamy snow]

Please duke 🤞🏽

[dry magnet]

Good luck!

I wish their decisions weren’t so late

[dreamy snow]

Same

The suspense builds

[frigid isle]

To you too!

I'm wishing you the best of luck guys

[dry magnet]

All in all I’m just glad I was able to get this out of the way

[native steppe]

"in case you forgot" ahh date

[dreamy snow]

Lol

I really loved dukes campus

Hope they love me too

[opal hornet]

where do you think you will go?

[frigid isle]

I don't know yet. I csn only decide once and for all after Duke

[bleak oasis]

DUKE UR MY LST HOPE

[frigid isle]

[opal hornet]

Is it one of your top choices...?

[lavish hatch]

was my second

but i got into upenn so

im probably going to attend penn

12 rejections 4 acceptances and 3 waitlists, 1 waiting

if i somehow get into duke, ill tour both penn & duke

[dry magnet]

I hope they’ll accept me

[dry magnet]

Wharton? CAS?

[lavish hatch]

CAS

[dreamy snow]

Same

I wanna tour duke again 🥹

[dry magnet]

If they reject me I’m probably going to commit to DKU or a CUNY 😭

[lavish hatch]

my list

lol

[dry magnet]

[lavish hatch]

penn cas

[frigid isle]

My evil ass fucking template

[limpid citrus]

[frigid isle]

Tell me abt it

[lavish hatch]

i hope that you guys get duke fr

and a turnover of luck

anything can happen fr

[dry magnet]

Thank you bro

[lavish hatch]

i opened up like 13 decisions, 10 of which were rejections

3 wls

before i opened up penn

[dry magnet]

Do you think it’s misleading if I decide to go DKU and put Duke ‘30 in my bio

💀💀

[lavish hatch]

uhhhh

can you take classes at duke?

[dry magnet]

Because after graduation you get degrees from both Kunshan and Duke Durham

😭

[lavish hatch]

yeah

[dry magnet]

I think students can do one semester at Durham

[lavish hatch]

uhh i suppose not then

i mean who cares anyway

[dry magnet]

Yeah

[lavish hatch]

whether u say duke kunshan or duke who cares

[dry magnet]

It was just a thought LOL

Because a lot of people started putting their schools into their bios

[lavish hatch]

yeah

i didnt even let my decision marinate 😭

instantly put "@uofpenn '30?"

i havent committed to penn yet ^

[lavish hatch]

if on insta you are putting @dukeuni '30 maybe it isnt the most accurate right now

but i mean u still receieve a degree from duke soo idk

but you should still be happy about dku since its pretty selective

[dry magnet]

yup! I’m pretty happy

my mom is going to leave me in China

Because I’m going on vacation

And move in is literally during my vacation

😭😭

It’s going to take me a day just to go from one province to another

[frigid isle]

0.9% shot

[dreamy snow]

Lol

[frigid isle]

If my ass gets in

This will be a HISTORICAL clutch

[lavish hatch]

i am rooting for you

as well as everyone else in this chat

[sturdy saffron]

I’m praying I get Duke I get free tuition if I get in

[frigid isle]

I don't care abt full ride anymore

Just let me in

Rest assured

[sturdy saffron]

yea same

but I wouldn’t be able to pay without the tuition grant

it’s for ppl under 150k

[lavish hatch]

[frigid isle]

[lavish hatch]

[frigid isle]

Gang I don't like being bombed

💀

[native steppe]

A t20 hasn't won March madness since 2015

[plain plover]

his country is actively in war 💔

[native steppe]

And the last t20 that wasn't Duke was UCLA in 1995

[plain plover]

what happened to f&m

[frigid isle]

I mean F&M is def an option, it's just that Duke would be a legendary pull🥀

Also F&M has some questionable stuff going on

[lavish hatch]

oh

dang sorry

[frigid isle]

All cool man

I have like 2 schools back in Europe tho

[lavish hatch]

did f&m give good aid

?

[frigid isle]

I mean they gave me like 68k or smth

[lavish hatch]

whats the coa

[frigid isle]

26.5k or sum

[lavish hatch]

oh

have u applied 4 scholarships

[forest bison]

International apply to need aware competitive college 😭😭

It’s not happening

[frigid isle]

Actually I couldn't find a single one I could qualify for

[frigid isle]

"Oh"

😭😭😭😭

[dreamy snow]

This

[native steppe]

No

[lavish hatch]

lol yeah no

sorry

[chrome halo]

Asari is correct, it’s only for mainland students. We can go back to our country for vacation or travel a week before the Chinese students can 😂😂

[plain plover]

that’s not a good idea

u have full personal information on there

[limpid citrus]

Fair

[dry magnet]

Bruh my parents keep mentioning how they had to do that when they were kids in school 😭😭

[chrome halo]

LOLLL

[plain plover]

like u have full government names and parent names and professions and jobs and ur school

[dry magnet]

I’m going to be in China for three weeks before classes start

[plain plover]

it would be a doxx party

[dry magnet]

💀

Have to fly from one province to another

[limpid citrus]

U could just send the activities list and such yk

But yes

[chrome halo]

actually, the military training for the Chinese students is comparably so much easier than the Chinese Chinese colleges

[limpid citrus]

🤘 Frat Flick

[chrome halo]

They lit just sat around for half the day in our gym on their phones.

[dry magnet]

btw are you Chinese lmao

I’m assuming so because of your name

😭

[chrome halo]

I’m ABC

[dry magnet]

That’s crazy

[dry magnet]

That’s what I meant

I’m also ABC

[chrome halo]

Niceeeeee

[dry magnet]

Which province is your family from

[chrome halo]

fujian

There’s quite a few ABCs on campus but only 4-5 of us are actually proficient in Chinese

[dry magnet]

My Chinese is okay I think

I just forgot how to read and write

Because my mom took me out of classes when I was in fifth grade 💀

[chrome halo]

I’m the same, you’ll be fine

Is DKU one of ur tops?

[dry magnet]

It is

[dry magnet]

I’m from Guangdong

[chrome halo]

If u want, I can add u and answer any more questions later in dms or u can put them in the other server

I’m working soon 🤮

[dry magnet]

W*rking 🥀🥀

[dry magnet]

Alright

[languid acorn]

Speaking of DKU, are DKU and Duke acceptances correlated? I got an interview at DKU and was accepted but didnt get an interview for Duke

I know they're separate programs with unrelated AOs but do you think that's a good sign?

[plain plover]

two different things

[dreamy snow]

Abba did u apply to duke

[plain plover]

yes! if i get in i will def be giving up my spot

so hopefully any waitlisted people can have it

[dreamy snow]

Ngl im pretty happy with my results so far

[plain plover]

u didnt get rejected at any ivies right? just waitlists

[dreamy snow]

Ive been on reddit and ppl with way better stuff than me had diff outcomes

[dreamy snow]

No i did

I got rejected from everywhere else but pton and upenn

[plain plover]

ohhh

[dreamy snow]

The only other one I cared abt was yale

[plain plover]

i hope u either get off the waitlist or barnard lowers their aid!

[dreamy snow]

I knew id get rejected from the tohers

[plain plover]

yale rejected me too its ok

who needs yale

[dreamy snow]

TWINS

[dreamy snow]

[chrome halo]

[dry magnet]

I need more aid 🥀

[modern swan]

hey guys I need help and idk if I should be worried

on my app it says my Parent Federal Tax Return was waived

should I call them?

[plain plover]

no

u dont need to call

[modern swan]

oh

[plain plover]

typically it happens when duke doesnt need information from it

ur fafsa/css were enough

[modern swan]

okay thanks for the help 🙂

congrats on harvard

[plain plover]

thank u!! i hope u get duke

[modern swan]

Thank you I hope so!

[errant igloo]

What’s the chance I get in without an interview

[limpid citrus]

My entire school didnt get an interview

We normally send a bunch

[dreamy snow]

A lot of ppl get in without one

[limpid citrus]

Is it bad i mentioned cooper flagg n he left 2 yrs ago

[plain plover]

tuesday

7 pm est

[exotic compass]

is duke the latest of all college decisions?

and the ugliest of all college mascots?

[exotic compass]

i thought this was your overall sat score and i was lost

[twilit minnow]

🫩

[hushed plume]

I did a Duke rejection simulator

[kindred river]

whats that

[lofty charm]

There’s a website where you can simulate receiving a rejection letter, you go through the step on website and get the rejection letter

[kindred river]

😭😭

[dreamy snow]

NAHH

[forest bison]

Man you could’ve just opened mine instead

[dry magnet]

We ARE getting accepted

[forest bison]

Eh who knows

[hushed plume]

nah we getting in

Generational clutch

[lavish hatch]

Oh hell nah 500 alone is wild

[solid dust]

e

[zealous oak]

yo is it bad if i submitted after priority deadline and didnt get an interview

[native steppe]

There's a priority deadline?

[plain plover]

the priority deadline isn’t a thing anymore

duke only gives out interviews if they “need more information on applicant”

which is what yale says

fancy way of saying duke pre screens ur app to determine if additional information would be helpful

[zealous oak]

this is in their 25-26 admissions doctrine

take that with a grain of salt if u will

[plain plover]

i submitted 20 minutes before the deadline and got an interview meanwhile i know kids who submitted weeks before who didn’t get it 💔

if u go onto their website it says this

[limpid citrus]

Do you have worse odds if you submitted after the priority deadline?

[plain plover]

there isn’t one

[zealous oak]

bruh they r so vague 💀

ig so

[limpid citrus]

What is this Dec.20 thing

[zealous oak]

atp idek

doesnt exist

ig

[limpid citrus]

It lowk makes sense

[plain plover]

my interviewer told me that if ur given an interview then u are making it through the process and told me congrats. take that as u will with that information i just gave in the screenshot

[limpid citrus]

Why nobody at my school got an interview then

[zealous oak]

same bro

we get 3 duke RDs every year

[plain plover]

don’t worry

tons of people are admitted to duke without interviews

it’s all availability based on

like a ton of things

read the bold words in that screenshot i sent

at the end

[zealous oak]

unlike yale this may not affect ur chances

[plain plover]

there is a very good chance duke sees ur file, needs no new or additional info, and passes u on

[limpid citrus]

Claude said I have a 7% of admission : )

Might need a miracle

[maiden apex]

I got deferred ed with no interview, everyone that got one was rejected in my area

So im coping hard rn

[zealous oak]

it lowk seems helal random

cuz yale getting an interview is correlated w an acceptance

duke ig its js genuinely to pull more info

dont read into it much than

[slender canopy]

last shot...

last thought...

[mellow shore]

Did you ask about it?

[slender canopy]

dang I didnt meet priproty

gg

[native steppe]

Samesies

[slender canopy]

cuz ur cracked gng

😭

[plain plover]

omg no i’m not cracked i swear

[zealous oak]

no u are not cooked

we get 3 Duke admits each year from my skl (feeder)
no one has gotten interview so far

and freind at duke confirmed he didnt get an interview (accepted RD)

[slender canopy]

harvard lol

[slender canopy]

ohhh fr

okic

[plain plover]

i guess 😭

[dreamy snow]

Its too late to be worrying abt interviews

Decisions drop in 2 days

[lavish hatch]

Just a small school in Cambridge

Btw only blue dots get interviews

[crystal spear]

when is this bum ahh school coming out

[crystal spear]

everyone knows u need to subtract ai predictions by 5 percent

[limpid citrus]

Oh

2%...

[crystal spear]

I’m joking

don’t trust ai predictions

[frigid isle]

https://tenor.com/view/yuji-breakdown-jujutsu-kaisen-yuji-jjk-anime-yuji-itadori-gif-2384733500658872785

[crystal spear]

just roll a dice at that point

[frigid isle]

Shit

[dreamy snow]

Duke please accept me

The better blue

Show me you're better than unc

[frigid isle]

Atp

Clutch ain't fucking happening

[pulsar wind]

yall idk if my region has an interviewer no one in my school got one like 10 kids but the kid who got in last year did

[modern swan]

yup they are NOT accepting my ahh

[native steppe]

lowkey claude got everything right so far 😭

[limpid citrus]

Kinda

[limpid citrus]

Yo do u wanna try out my prompt

Or is this too degen

[native steppe]

nahh

[limpid citrus]

[modern swan]

wait wym

[crystal spear]

I’m done with my cycle let me try

what’s the prompt

[native steppe]

i just gave it stats/ecs and such and asked to predict

[native steppe]

it said unc, ncsu, gt admit
cmu, mit, jhu waitlist/reject
pending duke but it said like 35-40%

i wouldnt give it too much weight though

[modern swan]

yea I'm not

[native steppe]

in 48 hours we'll all know anyway

[modern swan]

he said rejected from cmu but got wl

now he saying 5-10 percent

bruh

[lavish hatch]

Ai said I had a 45% chance at princeton

I ended up getting rejected by like 13 schools

Including princeton

it’s inaccurate

[limpid citrus]

Gotta use the right prompt

[viral pilot]

calling ai a he :Sully:

[dreamy snow]

ToT

[mossy pier]

You used the wrong prompt you have to be smart about it

I autistically learned how to make it good it predicted 6-7 accepts out of 14 schools

I ended up getting 6 accepts 1 WL

doooo

soooooo

buttt it’s not very accurate on what schools u will get into that’s really a toss up, acceptence rates can be useful indicators though statistically the personalized acceptences rates it gave for my profile were within ≈3% accuracy

[devout kindle]

what prompt

[lavish hatch]

Send me the prompt I’m curious

[lucid sierra]

DUKE IS BUNS

DUKE IS ACC SO BUNS

LMAOAOOAOAO

[dreamy snow]

Wait they lost?

[lucid sierra]

AHAHAHAH

BLEW a 19 PT LEAD

[native steppe]

This is a bad omen for us

[dreamy snow]

[native steppe]

They're gonna come to work mad so everyone in final review will be rejected

[dreamy snow]

My dad said they would

[dreamy snow]
