I think I submitted too quickly after December scores were released and then missed out on that batch of PT invitations.
I'll give it a shot, I suppose. I actually had a non-PT fee waiver offered after a previous score, so I used that to apply. I just don't want to seem neurotic or imposing if I ask for them to switch me to priority track after I've submitted.

No change all day. I guess that means tomorrow is the day I get waitlisted.... otherwise they go over their 10 day limit.

Re: In at Duke!
Why are you so sure you're getting waitlisted? I went UR 1/13 with PT and haven't heard yet either. I guess if 1/13 counted as Day 1 then today would be Day 10...Interminable_Waiting wrote:No change all day.

I am not sure.... but my numbers and some recent posts by others with higher scores have made me expect that... or a denial. Good luck to you though. Post when something happens.

lol I ask this like every two days. I called last week and they said the scholarship committee should be meeting within the next couple of weeks. Last year they came out in early Feb via snail mail so I guess it'll be the same this year.VoidSix wrote:Has anyone heard about scholarships yet?

+1 I went UR on 1/13 too and I'm still UR.
I wonder if they will be working on Sat to stick to their 10-day notice thing...
It's not fair that they will keep me waiting anxiously on Sat too. I need a break!

It's ten business days, FWIW. But they also have called on Saturdays and Sundays in the past.

Same. I'm mostly going on the notion that ITT I think everyone has heard in <10 days from UR.Sauer Grapes wrote:My PT invite didn't say business days, just 10 days.

They haven't. There were a lot of people in November that heard in 12-14 days. I haven't been following this thread since, but I imagine it's still the same.

I got my PT acceptance via email last Saturday, 1/16. I was UR 1/6. So it could definitely happen today.

Re: In at Duke!
Has anyone accepted in the last couple of weeks received the snail mail packet yet?
I got an acceptance e-mail on 1/13 and haven't received anything in the mail yet.
Thanks!

Re: In at Duke!
Hopefully they'll clear out all these PT applications and keep on plowing right through the RD apps. I'm getting increasingly nervous as February approaches.
