Just got my package....and no mention of any scholarship whatsoever. Not even that I did not receive one. Anyone else get nixed in a similar manner? I am 3.5/169. Anyone with similar stats that can report zero money?

Are you sure you received the scholarship package? Did it come with a t-shirt? The Student Affairs Office sent everyone a package with a t-shirt. This is not the scholarship package.

Maybe Duke doesn't want to make us feel overweight, hence the apparently enormous shirts.

Shirt and terrific scholarship considering my numbers! I'd love to come but I don't think nc is in the picture anymore. We will see.

So just to be 100% clear, can we confirm that the scholarship letter and t-shirt package are two separate things? Cuz I got the shirt but submitted my scholarship form just a couple of weeks ago...

Actually the scholarship is the shirt. You need to keep your gpa above a 3.5 to keep yourself clothed.

This change happened in the last hour and a half too, as that was when I last checked my status (I know I have a problem). I have no idea what this means but it is weird...
Just noticed this occurring, so hopefully and based on others' experiences, that means I should have "Scholarship Mailed" by day's end, too.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
