I'm an American study abroad consultant, so part of my answer will be in English. I hope that is not a problem. One of the most important things you can demonstrate to Duke is your willingness (and history) to become an engaged student on campus and desire to collaborate with others. I suggest highlighting this in your LOCI, as it is your final time to show school fit.
Your LOCI for NYU should show your appreciation of diversity and your ability to thrive in a very urban setting.
Here is an article I wrote a while ago (obviously translated :p) that might help you get off the waitlist. If you decide to use the LOCI templates, please alter them somewhat to your own words. Feel free to reach out on WeChat if you need help (kvanderweert). Good luck!!
申请美国大学,被列入候补名单(waitlist),心情肯定挺复杂,我理解这种感受。
而且我不得不遗憾地告诉你,从候补名单中脱颖而出也很困难,有时是非常非常困难。
但这并非毫无希望,一些申请人确实从候补名单崭露头角,最终获得了录取。如果你希望成为其中之一,你可以这样做来提高你的成功率:
遵循学校说明
许多学校会要求申请人正式接受被列入候补名单上,那么申请者就需要以书面方式告知学校。
有些学校会要求申请者更新成绩单或者经历,而有些学校则明确告诉你不要这么做。请务必遵循指示,不然你可能被直接拒绝。
直接联系大学
如果邮件或者学校官网没有更新结果,那么直接联系大学可以帮助你了解从候补到录取有多大机会。通过致电学校,你也表现出对该学校的兴趣。可以尝试问以下问题:
1. 候补录取名单上有多少人?
2. 有多少人倾向于被移除出候补名单?
3. 您什么时候能做候选录取的决定?
4. 候补名单上的申请人是否有排名?如果是这样,我在第几名?
接下来,你应该通过电子邮件向你刚刚通话的人发送邮件表示感谢,并附上一封保留信(letter of continued interest, LOCI)。下一步会详细阐释,什么是LOCI。
保留信(LOCI)
让我们从你应该发送邮件的人开始说起。大学通常会收到非常多对学校感兴趣的申请人的邮件,如果你希望自己的邮件真正脱颖而出,你应该给你所在地区的招生顾问发邮件。
有时找到你所在地区的招生顾问很容易,有时很难。以下是你需要做的:
1. 从学校官网开始搜索。如果你无法在招生页面上快速找到地区招生顾问,可以直接在网上按地区搜索“[大学名称]招生顾问”。
2. 如果只显示招生顾问的姓名,你需要找到他们的电子邮件地址。可以直接到官网的教师目录里查找。
3.如果你仍然无法找到地区招生顾问的电子邮件地址,请下载http://hunter.io。然后到领英(LinkedIn)搜索“[大学名称]招生”。滚动查看出现的人名,直至找到你的招生顾问。如果还是不行,可以直接向院长或招生办公室的其他人发送电子邮件。

Dear (regional admissions counselor),
Thank you for taking the time to review my application for the (year) school year and for offering me a place on the waitlist.
I am writing to reiterate my interest in University Name and to assure you that, should I be moved from the waitlist, I will immediately withdraw my other applications.
Aside from (one thing you love about the school), University Name perfectly aligns with my (academic / personal) interests. Specifically, I am interested in (course / professor’s work / program / club / campus tradition) because (why).
In addition to (above mentioned factor(s)), I am confident that I will bring a unique perspective to University Name. Due to my (relevant background / experiences / interests), I will bring (something no one else has) to the school community.
I also want to take this opportunity to update my application. Since my submission in (month), I have (completed a research project / earned perfect fall semester grades / started volunteering in my community / accepted an internship / started working part time / won an award / raised X for my club / something NEW and INTERESTING about you). (Why is this important and interesting?)
University Name remains my top choice. The (major) program aligns perfectly with my (career) goals, and I can see myself fitting in on campus because (why).
From the campus tour I took in the fall, to the alumni interview I had with (name), to my most recent conversation with (name) in the admissions office, every interaction I have had with University Name has been enjoyable, and I look forward to continuing these positive experiences should I be offered a position off of the waitlist.
Thank you very much for your time.
Sincerely,
Eager Applicant

(大学名称)仍然是我的首选。(专业)课程完全符合我的(职业)目标,我可以看到自己会非常适应在这个校园里学习,因为(理由)。

Dear (regional admissions counselor),
Last week I (talked with a current student / interviewed with an alum / found a new program that interests me / discovered a new campus tradition / something NEW that excites you about the school). I was impressed with (why). Now I love University Name even more.
Although I have been waitlisted, I am excited to have the opportunity to prove University Name is my first choice and that I would be a good contribution to its (descriptor) campus. As my favorite university, I will immediately withdraw my other applications if I am accepted from the waitlist.
Since submitting my application in (month), I have (completed a research project / earned perfect fall semester grades / started volunteering in my community / accepted an internship / started working part time / won an award / raised $X for my club / something NEW and INTERESTING about you). (Why is this important and interesting?)
Thank you very much for your time. I am excited to have the chance to attend University Name, and I wish you a restful summer.
Sincerely,
Eager Applicant
亲爱的(地区招生顾问),

虽然我被列入候补名单,但我很高兴有机会证明(大学名称)是我的第一选择,并且我将对其(描述)校园做出很好的贡献。作为我最喜欢的大学,如果我被录取,我会立即撤回其他大学的申请。
自从(x月)提交申请以来,我已经完成了一个研究项目/获得完美的秋季学期成绩/开始在我的社区做志愿者/接受实习/开始兼职工作/赢得奖金/为我的俱乐部筹集了$ X /最近做的有意思的事情)。(为什么这很有意思?)
非常感谢您的宝贵时间。我很高兴有机会在(大学名称)学习,祝你度过一个美好的夏天。

老实说,从候补转为录取很难。但是,如果不试试通过联系招生办公室和发送LOCI来提高被录取的机会,那么你可能永远不会被录取。
但必须要把握的一点是:你需要马上做这件事。所有的大学会在5月1日国家大学录取结果日之后填补他们的所有的录取空位。
不要放弃!
祝你好运,申请人!
