Got my acceptance e-mail today! I went under review on the 5th and have been checking my e-mail obsessively ever since. Good luck to everybody who hasn't heard yet, don't read too much into the wait.

Is everyone who has been hearing back a PT applicant?

I didn't get the PT track invite and I'm fully expecting a WL with my 168/3.37 but it would still be nice to get an early answer.

My application went under review on the 5th. Do you think it's a bad sign if it's still under review today? It sounds like another batch of people got acceptances last night

My PT app status just changed to "fall grades requested." Does anyone know anything about this? I am also planning to graduate early, so I am only enrolled in 6 credit hours this semester, as I will be done in December. Will this hurt my chances?

My status also just changed to "Fall Grades Requested." I'm also graduating a year early, so I only have four semesters to go off of. I sent them an email asking what it means. We'll see how they respond...

Thanks Wizard. Congrats!

Here's the response: "That typically means that we would like to review your fall semester grades before making a decision. The status was updated today, so you should receive an email soon (today) with additional information and/or instructions."

For people getting accepted via PT, did you write a "Why Duke" essay?
