ACCEPT ME!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE

[toddly76]

Anyone know the deal with priority track? I received info from Duke and was told I'd be considered priority track. I registered for it and they received my registration confirmation. Will they give me a status check password when my app is complete? Does anyone know the deal?

For anyone waiting to hear back from financial aid:

I sent in my scholarship form on 1/6, got the scholarship application receipt e-mail on 1/26, got a status update 'Scholarship decision mailed' on 2/15, and received the decision 2/17.

Just saw a $16K a year scholarship from Duke in my mailbox today!

In at Duke via a weekend email. Stats in profile.

Cheers! May this be the start of a wave of acceptances for all those waiting!

[lightswitch]

God I hope I get in. Duke is my first choice by far.

Finally UR at Duke after going complete 1/9! Don't kill me for asking/being lazy (I need to finish a book for a presentation by 2:30, so I don't have time to search) but how long can I expect to be UR before a decision? Thanks guys

Dear Duke,

Please don't waitlist me. "Yes" or "No" will do.

Best,

T

Nope, we're open for business.

I don't know, but mine updated from 11/28 to 2/17 last week, and I haven't gotten a decision yet. Maybe it varies?

From what I've read in earlier posts, it looks like most people have 2 UR dates before they receive a decision. And I think there are some who've been UR since November that are still waiting.

I went UR for the first time on 2/17 so I can't speak from personal experience.

That is CRA-ZY

[msblaw89]

I think the deadline passed to apply so we should see alot of movement soon

[mmk33]

I think the deadline passed to apply so we should see alot of movement soon

The deadline is February 15th. They do accept applications after this date (I know because I almost applied last year in very late February), but obviously they will get very few at this late date, and presumably they now know what they have--although they still don't know who all will accept.

[icedflames]

Just withdrew. I hope my acceptance goes to one of you (or many of you if possible) lol

[amandacr]

I applied 11/16, original update was 12/20, now another update 2/17. Since it's been about 14 weeks, is it worth it to wait it out or should I just withdraw my application? Duke is the last school I'm waiting to hear back from.
