<p>I have always wanted to go to Duke, but didn't get in tonight. Does anyone know how the wait list process works? When would I hear if I am on it?</p>
<p>Were you rejected or deferred? If you were rejected you were rejected and there is no second chance. If you were deferred you app is pushed to the RD round and considered there. People are waitlisted after RD.</p>
<p>Thank you. I guess, I will have to apply as a transfer next year.</p>
<p>As useless as this may sound right now, coming from somebody who is at Duke, attend a school next year that you would be happy to spend four years at. As much as I love Duke, there will be another school out there that’ll be perfect for you. And if you end up at Duke as a transfer, that’s all the better.</p>
