Just checking in/first time using TLS!

I submitted my Duke PT application before Thanksgiving, and status checker just changed. So now playing the "awaiting email waiting game :/" not a very fun game...

Good luck, Whitey. What you need right now is some booze-fueled temporal distortion!

Do you think they invite December retakers for the Mordecai if the retake score is high enough? I got in with a 169, but retaking this weekend. Worried I'll be late to the scholarship party.

This is a paranoid person question. Is it customary to email them back/say anything to them after you've been accepted? (admitted priority track last week). All the sudden I'm imagining my acceptance being revoked and my spot taken because I didn't say anything lulz. Just hasn't sunk in and feels weird waiting around, for an email about schollys/financial aid.

You could send an email, it won't do anything but ease your mind though IMO.

Checking in. Duke is yet another reach for me, but I gotta take a crack at it! N.C. is a great state and Duke is a great school!

When should we expect to hear about financial awards from Duke (I got accepted in September). Just wondering since Michigans and UVAs are out

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
