Has anyone received their scholarship forum yet? What kind of information does it ask for?

it's basically nothing. you just check either that you want to be considered for need and merit aid, or just merit aid, and then you sign.

Accepted as priority track admit yesterday!
3.49/172
KJD, Female, Canadian
non-URM
Why Duke included
(No strong undergrad softs and limited WE)

Very pleasantly surprised, to be honest, considered those who were getting priority reserve...I feel like lots of YP occurred in these cases

Lurker first time post! I thought I finally contribute.

I got my Priority Track provisional admission last night!

My stats:

170/4.0
non-URM
I'm an electrical engineering major, so I have some decent engineering 'softs.'
(I included a half-assed Why duke)

I'm pretty excited although Duke isn't my top choice. I'm really happy to finally seeing the decisions coming in.

After your status tracker changes to "Under Review" is there a typical amount of time that it takes for you to receive your decision? Does that mean I'll be getting a decision within the next two days? Just wondering as this is one of my first apps and one of my top two choices so I really, really want to know... hopefully good news only...

It is Regular Decision but it's Priority Track. It's only the first day after I submitted though so I was curious if it was typical to see it change to "Under Review" that quickly as it seems that most of the people in this thread had to wait the full ten days before getting a decision...

Right after submitting my application I got any email titled "Priority Track File complete" telling me that my app was being considered under PT, and that I needed to register on the school site. But, when I type in my info, I get a message saying that my LSAC# was not eligible for PT.

Has this happened to anyone else? My numbers (3.6/174) are well within the PT range that I've seen, so this doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

yeah. I had a pretty much identical experience. Ended up getting PT consideration, but only after some cajoling.

Any admits get the aid form they talked about in the acceptance email recently? Haven't gotten anything.

And how long after acceptances does the actual packet arrive? Kind of anxious, really like Duke.

people in the first round of admits got the form, but I don't think anyone else has, so I wouldn't worry about it

I was admitted on 11/9, but I haven't received the aid form yet. The packet arrived about a week after acceptance. There's a large folder with the provisional acceptance letter, brochures on the school, a Duke Law lanyard, and a notepad. :)

Been ready for review on RD for about a week. I'm guessing it'll be a while?

we don't really know at this point. last year duke RD decisions started coming out in october, so they seem to be switching things up this cycle
