Duke University School of Law C/O 2019 Applicants Forum

When do we think non-PT folks will start getting news? I've been complete UR since 10/12 (per the status checker) and haven't heard anything.

UR since 9/28 here; hopefully we can hear something this week.

Last year's first acceptance was 12/9. I think we are in the window

Thanks! Hope you're right, Numbah1!

Let's hope my intel does not let us down this week

Question for non-PT folks - is there a UR2 to be expected or are we just waiting for a decision? Haven't scoured the old threads - just wondering - and waiting - for Duke

[yargnon]

Found out this weekend that I'm in! (via PT) Hope all of you non-PT folks start getting decisions soon too!

[yargnon]

This is my first acceptance, and I am so happy and I am actually going to law school and I can quit my terrible job and everything is wonderful.

THIS. So much this.

I think some people go UR2 and other's don't. The Duke status checker is a place of uncertainty for us non-PT folks. It will say decision made when the decision is coming.

Submitted Priority Track app last night, will need a miracle folks! *Fingers crossed*

Hey, I got one, so you never know!

Should be getting scholarship information (at least the "application") as well as Mordecai invites sometime soon, if any part of last year's cycle can be relied upon.

The waiting is killing me. I got in PT on 11/22, and know I won't be hearing back from any other school for a while (I wanted to hear back from Duke before applying anywhere else) so this is the thing I keep refreshing my email for. Do you think it will be this week?

Dunno really. All I know is it's 9 days into December and we have yet to hear something. Last year people were receiving the applications promptly after acceptances. I think they are grouping them all in December this year to make it a more fair/structured cycle for the non-PTers, and the late PTers, so there's no real baseline from last year as for when they will be sent. Looks like a first round of Mordecais were reported on the 18th, though idk how many people are expecting one (I, personally, would kill for one...then would go to jail and be barred from the practice of law for life).

Question about the timeframe for PT application. Does the 10 day count begin when the application is marked complete? (My online status checker has "Priority Track Complete" listed under mailings.) Or does it begin when the status is marked "Under Review" which is dated 4 days later for me, in the status section?

What did the email say when you went complete?
Also, did you read the information regarding the PT invite, both in the original invite email and on the registration website?

I feel dumb for asking now, I just love reassurance!

Date change from 10/12 to 12/9

[slizerd]

The package I just got in the mail is so beautiful that I'm almost sold on Duke just from that alone

Right?! Such pretty stuff.

I've been tempted to wear the lanyard, even though I'm still waiting to hear back from 8 schools, including my initial top 3 choices...

Right?! The prestige whore in me wants to wear it so that people know I was smart enough to get into Duke. The dignity in me says not to do that

I'm not going to speculate much about the Duke status checker life. Last year's first non-PT decision was 12/9 on a Tuesday. It just has to be time for someone to get some news :/

[WisGolfer]

New to the thread, and could probably figure this out by reading through... but i'll ask instead: what is the lowest LSAT you've seen get invited to apply PT?

Give it to your mom. She can wear it around AND brag for you.
