The fact that you got a mailing with those numbers makes me confident that I am not getting the decoy scholarship letter.

It's the decision status date we are talking about in conjunction with the 2/9 mailing

Consensus is that it was mailed today, especially since a D.C. and Florida person haven't received them yet. The USPS calculator said Durham to Gainesville is 2 days and I didn't get anything today. Of course, weather is a factor.

Hm this is weird. Why would it say decision mailed 2/9 if they didn't mail it? But yea status checker definitely use to say "decision made you will be notified soon." Damn and I was so excited to get it today boooo

Yea, DC cant be counted because of the weather. I still dont know if I will have mail today. But they could have mailed them out on the 9th, but the post office didnt receive them or something until the 10th, so we would get them today? Hopeful...

Mine changed as well. In the admissions letter it says that they wait to formally admit you until they are done with the scholarship offer. Could the mailing in fact be on the 9th and the change on the 11th be the formal admittance?

It's also possible that it got taken by the post office on 2/10 even thought Duke "mailed" it 2 / 09. Depending on how often they pick up from wherever they put them in. In that case, you'll be getting your letter in Jacksonville today.

I got mail yesterday after not having it for two days... I had ONE letter and it was for my wife! We usually get several items of junk mail at the very least, so I know that this wasn't a full two days worth (plus we are due some netflix).
I am jealous you got mail yesterday! I live right downtown and our mail guy never showed up
