<p>Aw man. I was going to apply ED to Princeton, but I didn't because I persued this other scholarship... that I didn't get... and now I'm on the wait list on my first-choice school.</p>
<p>I've been accepted to Duke but this is still such a bummer because I thought I would know by now where I'd be next year, and at this point I still can't decide. Anyone else have any thoughts on this awkward limbo??</p>
<p>Are you choosing b/w just Princeton or Duke?</p>
<p>you have to think whether Princeton vs. Duke is worth the trouble appealing the waitlist. Duke is a damn good school, too. not to say that you shouldn't try :)</p>
<p>well, I've also been accepted in the UNC Chapel Hill honors program and the Echols Scholar program at UVa</p>
<p>UVa is an awesome school... and so so pretty. However.. if $ is not an issue, I would commit to Duke by May 1st, and then see what happens with Princeton. What's the worst that could happen? Either you'll be going to Duke (a very prestigious, incredible school), or you'll lose your deposit and go to Princeton. Also, have you been to Duke? It's GORGEOUS. My interviewer told me it was the Princeton of the South...so u're in good shape honey!</p>
