Exact same; Idk why they wouldn't just say business days if they DON'T do weekends, but that also seems incredibly optimistic.

I've read most of this thread and must have just missed that part. You don't have to answer questions if you can't do it without being condescending. But ok.

This thread needs to chill. Anxiety level high. Somebody pw maybe? No tolerance policy on condescending poses. We're all in this together.

Patronizingly making incorrect inferences regarding information already shared/asked/answered in this very thread...love the self-righteousness.

Does Duke send an acceptance letter or packet in the mail?

Based on what I've read on here, the acceptance email is followed by a welcome packet in the government mail.

Confirmed. At least for PT, not sure if there is a different procedure for RD.

Dope!!!
It's been 2 weeks since the WashU acceptance, and I'm still waiting on the snail mail. Also, Michigan said they sent a packet weeks ago that I have still yet to get.

I didn't think WashU did snail mail.

Welp, it's day 10 for me and I'm still UR2 (applied PT). Was hoping a decision might add some spice to a looooong weekend spent in the office, but c'est la vie.

Anyway, from glossing over the thread, it looks like 11 days is the longest anyone's had to wait for a decision after his/her PT app going complete. Is that correct? Or have some of y'all had wait times in the 12+ day range?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
