<p>I've been waitlisted to Duke. I'm glad Duke didn't turn me down outright, at the same time frustrated to be in limbo.</p>
<p>Anyway, I digress. Under "Click to Accept Waitlist Offer" there's a box titled </p>
<p>"I am currently planning to attend"</p>
<p>Beneath this is a list of universities. I was very surprised to see Duke in that list as well. How can I realistically "plan to attend" Duke when I am on the waitlist? Duke is my No.1 school so I definitely will enroll, but is this simply a glitch? If not, I would definitely pick Duke. But I'm confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>Same problem here!
Also, how does it affect your chances of acceptance from the waitlist?
I’m an international student and as such I have no acceptance offers from any colleges in my own country, because the process hasn’t begun. (I’m sure that I can get into very highly ranked ones though.) However, Duke is my first choice.
What do I do? Write a college in my country? Would that hurt my chances?</p>
<p>Since Duke waitlisted you I think it is none of their business where you actually plan to attend, but, since they have given you the option of choosing Duke in their waitlist question, I would click on Duke! </p>
<p>Thanks sdgal2. However I’ve already put another university in that option. My thinking was, since it says “currently planning to attend” putting in Duke there hardly makes sense, because I haven’t been accepted. Generally I guess it’s suppsoed to be a uni you are going to enroll in until you are, if you are, accepted from that waitlist…</p>
<p>SaoirseBefri What did you end up giving, in that option?</p>
Where are you from?</p>
