Craziest College Admissions Process

 

For everyone applying to college in 2026 call admissions process actually made me spiritual. 

 

I always wanted to ed to Duke, but my college counselor told me to not throw away my ed. So I applied to Vandy ed (I don’t know why he thought that would be safer). I got rejected from Vandy. Had an awful rest of the process. I ended up only getting into CU Boulder, Lehigh, Lafayette, and Wake Forest. I committed to Wake Forest and hated it. I cried during admitted students day, but then two weeks later got off the umich waitlist. I thought it was destiny and I bought so much gear. Then, I got off the washu waitlist, but I decided to stick with michigan because I was OBSESSED. Finally, every waitlist I was on closed. So I was 100% going to michigan. Fast forward to yesterday, I was at Michigan orientation and I got an email saying the Duke waitlist was reopening. This morning, July 30th, I got off the waitlist and am committed to Duke. Don’t give up on your dreams and apply to Duke.
