anyone know what this means
ooh, Duke "decision made" for me
I got decision made, watch email for Duke too.
me too
I’ve been hearing people getting called for As
So we might not be expecting much…
Interesting
I am a feb applicant so fully expecting absolutely nothing
Shit I applied feb too
Duke emails for As, but an A wave is highly unlikely
Duke openly states that they don't really take many late applicants
If at all
Exactly
Also reddit reflects mixed results following "decision made"

Usually it seems decision made watch for email results in WL or A. Decision made with no sub status typically indicates R
UnknownSpikyCow
17:08
Given where we are in the cycle, it’s likely a WL
Gotcha
makes sense - I'm surprised they would say that though
What could be the logic behind rejecting people since they applied in Jan/Feb? Higher likelihood to rush deadlines?
If so they got me haha

I think they just tend to proceed in order of receipt when reviewing apps instead of the more dynamic process some schools have
UnknownSpikyCow

And just naturally have fewer spots available when you reach the end of cycle
WHERE IS IT
anyone know how long it usually takes to get the email after "decision made- watch for email within 24 hours"
i know my chances are slim to none but like please put me out of my misery duke
lol waitlisted the second i sent that
WL. Anybody know how many are on the waitlist / how likely it is to get off?
lol i withdrew from the WL as soon as I got that email
