How competitive is Duke Ellington to get into?

Special thanks and biggest hugs to all you Kind and thoughtful posters out there. As they say at the Academy Awards, it’s just an honor to get this far. OK I lie, I’m gonna be heartbroken, but that which does not kill us, makes us . . . Oh, who cares?

I open my school DC and it says “match, enrollment pending”

May I presume my child was admitted?

Yes

Are you as dramatic as your child?

Hey Everyone
The lottery results are in. My son didn't make the cut which we figured after not reviving the family interview.Hes taking the news pretty well. He did get accepted into his second choice. He did express that he will be re-applying next year. I'm just glad we don't have to be anxious anymore. Best of Luck to you all!

Ditto for my kid. Second choice doesn’t really have much of an arts program, so it’s a bummer but at least it’s another year to work on audition skills if she chooses.

Same here. She’s super bummed but also knows what she needs to work on. I am almost sure that she will apply next year. The anxiousness is over and we can move on.

His second choice was McKinley Tech.

Congrats to all the Ellington admits. We have known several families who’ve gone through that application process and have heard it can be brutal, particularly depending on what specialty you are seeking.
