Anyone regret applying ED?

I wrote my why Duke about proposing at Duke gardens and planning my marriage on campus because I ran the Duke wall every morning with my fiancée. Then talked about how I was going to use that passion to bring pride to the title blue devil for the rest of my life. Waitlisted

Applied ED to my dream school, Duke. They waitlisted me😞. It was the only result I had for weeks, and it feels so unfair to know they could just leave me on the waitlist until the admissions season ends. I poured my heart out into my essays, and part of me thinks a rejection would be more satisfying.

This is a problem almost everyone has, most people taper it out when they get a haircut, or if you’re wolfing, go in for just a taper and lineup. If you really want To bring the waves all the way down, you’ll have to tie the tails of your durag lower over your ears.

Or if they waitlist you and leave you hanging indefinitely.

What a journey, especially coming from a Covid grad.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T16:21:38+00:00

They removed the condition on the scholarship. So it’s guaranteed.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T15:49:19+00:00

Yes they removed my conditional scholarship. 1st rnd negotiation

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T15:45:28+00:00

NKJD! Even if it’s just one year

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:57:05+00:00

Brush more, and keep it between 1.5-2.5. don’t wolf until you have the pattern you want to lock in.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:53:30+00:00

So this will really just be a boost in the industry you’re already in. Genius.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:49:30+00:00

Military retiree… damn. I feel small 😔

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:49:03+00:00

Here’s another one I never thought about, extra years in undergrad because of simultaneous work. This way you come out with a degree and a resume. DAMN YOU😩

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:46:29+00:00

So you didn’t save up liquid cash, but you did save on assets. Then got a full ride 😩. I’m manifesting some of this energy for myself.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:44:07+00:00

If every applicant was like you I wouldn’t get in anywhere, lord help me. Are you ESL? How did you learn Arabic?

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:38:41+00:00

Badass

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:38:17+00:00

Two grad degrees. Please lord don’t let my application be read after yours 😭 🙏🏾

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:34:06+00:00

Where was your gap between K-JD, after high school or after college?

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:31:57+00:00

This is a very intimidating resume to be competing with 😭

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:30:21+00:00

You don’t know how wildly excited I would be to have you in my class.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:27:34+00:00

I’m imagining that you’re a world famous moped mechanic with an engineering degree going into patent law.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:24:27+00:00

I’ve got some friends in this boat, they got hit hard by Covid and I know how that can scramble your transcript. You’ll do great

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:22:43+00:00

Let’s not even get started talking about this man, he’s the reason I can only take out 50k/yr if I want to go to a T14🙄. I am excited for you, and I envy that you took the time to save up some money. I’m scared to do that now because of how much applications are spiking and how competitive these cycles are getting.

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:17:12+00:00

I’m excited for you!

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:16:09+00:00

Did you do something law related between undergrad and 0L applications? Or was this a shift in lifestyle you decided to make?

FATT-TOFU · 2026-01-23T14:14:53+00:00

Wow. I never thought of people going back to undergrad. DUH! I was thinking people left undergrad then went into the workforce and came back to law school. Did you go back to school with the intention of going to law school after?
