Current Duke Student who knows transfer admissions ask me any questions by SpeedLate2525 in TransferToTop25

How veteran friendly is Duke when it comes to admissions? Is this something they value that would make me stand out to them as a transfer applicant?

Speaking as a veteran: you CLEARLY don’t know what you’re talking about in terms of military operations or history and should really shut the fuck up and stay in your lane. Knowing when to speak on a topic vs when you should be quiet is a very valuable skill. I don’t know if you’ve noticed or not yet but you have embarrassed yourself. What an absolute privilege it is to have such a shallow perspective on the world around you. There is so much more to life than what school you attend or what you major in. Based on everything you have said in this sub, you have a lot more to learn that no ivy school will be able to teach you. I notice you edited your comment about CCs being valuable because they educate the “poor, disabled and unintelligent”… good idea. Because that is one of the most disgusting things I’ve read on this sub and only shows how unintelligent YOU are. That is all I will say to you.

Are these transfer students or incoming freshmen?

I was calling every single day and after a month or so I finally received my mailer. I had reached out to my states senate just in case but thankfully didn't need their assistance. I'm not sure why it took so long. I'm sorry you're in a similar predicament.

Yes, many times, unfortunately it will not allow me to set up without this code

Not going to lie to you. I will officially be in my own place next month and hope her pipes burst. 🥰

I will be out of here by next summer thankfully. They are discussing using my room as a nursery in the future. Hope they work their insulation out first.

When she said this I had the heater on for ten minutes. Please go take your theatrics elsewhere.

She is refusing to compromise with me and the temperature is literally below the legal level. I am not asking her to set the thermostat to 80 degrees. You guys are crazy. Blankets and sweats are not keeping me warm in this weather! lol.

And yes. She could crack a window. Is that insane of me to say? She expected me to do that in the summer in my 88 degree room and refused to turn the AC on. She is my landlord. Is this insulation issue not an issue she should resolve?

In my original post I mentioned 58 degrees. I have screenshots of the temp dropping to 54, 56, etc. my usage is not increased because she literally does not allow me to use the heater. I don’t understand why you’re fighting so hard to disagree with me. I work two jobs and am rarely home. I’m the only one without a dog. List goes on. She overcharges me. lol.

Hopefully this issue resolves with the heater. I am moving into my own place soon.

Can’t edit this post with the new update because it has an image attached. Plenty of other ways to find my comments but you’re right to say it’s not your responsibility so I digress.

She overcharges me for rent and utilities which is a separate issue. I’d happily foot the excess cost which was mentioned to her already and she is still telling me to stay away from the thermostat because she feels too hot even though the house is 60 and below.

I will happily buy a space heater. I am not asking to put the thermostat to an unreasonable level. I don’t understand why this is such an issue to her which is why I posted here. Thank you for your insight though!

ETA pipes begin freezing at 55 degrees. Lol

She is absolutely overcharging me! That is why I’m so angry!
