Well after all that stress, I am in! I'm about 95% sure I'm going to Duke.

Congrats to those that are in - hope to see you this fall. For those on the waitlist, I am betting that quite a few people will come off.

It is your fault - you told me if I liked basketball over football to go to Duke...hopefully you'll get into Kellogg anyway.

Waitlist... man, this thing is getting crowded!

Every school uses the waitlist to manage yield, but I think Fuqua is using it even more this year, especially since they had such a high conversion rate last year. They increased class size by ~30 or so and probably want to trim that number a bit, so I'm not surprised that they would put so many on the waitlist this year, as it may give them a chance to manage their numbers a little bit better. Anyway, good luck to everyone on the waitlist, and congratulations to all those who got accepted today!

WTF!!!! I was trying to update as well. All that hard work. Took me a good 30 minutes to sort it all out. It would be more awesome if billyjeans and ACNguy tried to update it. Too many moderators applying to Fuqua.

With all that double effort, we deserve some kudos, so here's

Does anyone know if how scholarships work? I assume that since no one said they got any $$$ then no one did...my letter didn't say anything about $$$ so I am assuming that I didn't get any.

If you get $, they'll let you know in the admit packet in the mail.
