Or does it depend on your interviewer (adcom vs FA officer)?
Yes, the interview is part financial aid and part why duke/Law.

I applied back in November via PT and got put on the PR list. They offered me an interview when they put me on PR, and I flew there a couple of weeks later for an interview with Dean Hoye. Since, I've sent a follow-up email after the interview, a LOCI, and a diversity statement. Is there anything else I should do? I want to increase my chances as much as possible without badgering them... Also, does anyone know if they've went into the PR list yet? Or when they typically do?

According to last year's thread, the earliest reported date of someone accepted from the PR waitlist was April 19th.

I can't get the status checker to work. The routine for 5 months has been to always check my status during lunch. So. Lost. Without. You.

What are the rules for common law marriage in NC? You might be approaching the requirements with your status checker. :P

So are we thinking decisions will come out today? It seems people went UR on the 16th and 17th, and apparently decisions come a few days after UR 2. So, today or next week?

Does anyone get in without an interview? I went UR 2 on the 17th, but was never contacted for an interview. (Was UR 1 for a long time) :|

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
