Duke 2011 - Priority Track Forum

[lshamlet]

is it 10 days after completion, or 10 days after going under review?

Got a letter in the mail today from Dean Levi. Congratulations on being admitted and this is why I think you should choose Duke. Also enclosed an article he wrote for the Duke Law Review on Justice Posner.

I am impressed with the correspondence I have received from Duke - they certainly seem to care about making their case and looking like the right school for me.

Anyone else get this letter?

Hmmm, was that a letter that came separately after you received your official "welcome packet"? I just got my welcome packet last week and it didn't have a letter from Dean Levi with the article, but in my acceptance letter I had a short handwritten note at the end from the admissions dean congratulating me and mentioning a couple of things from my application. Did you get that as well?

Yeah I got the initial packet with a handwritten letter from the admissions dean then a couple of weeks later the letter from Dean Levi.

For those that are filling in scholarship info- it says you must fill out info for your parents regardless of age or marital status. Anyone know if independent student status applies here?

Furthermore- can filling out the financial information for need-based scholarships ever hurt your chances at getting a merit-based scholarship?

Do we have a Duke non priority track in this forum? I didn't see one.... I guess I can say that I'm cool like you all, but I didn't get PT invite and applied ED 10/31.

Verbatim from my PT Registration email:

When your application becomes complete it will receive an immediate, comprehensive review and we will mail a response within ten days.

Decisions have been going out pretty late at night, IIRC.

Did you check your status? You should see if it says decision rendered, watch out for email.

Got a nice letter from Dean Levi today, about why I should choose Duke Law over other Law schools. I'm sure they send it to everybody they admit, but still, it was definitely a nice touch.

Broke out my little Duke notepad and used it to take notes in my genetics lab today. Left my real lab notebook at home so I figured why not put it to use.

My pen broke the first time I clicked it . How can I attend Duke if they can't even send me a working pen .

Edit: Did you look in your acceptance folder and make sure you didn't miss it? I bet you did
