Is anyone else having issues with the hyperlink to get to the scholarship app form? Mine won't open anything.

What's this?
It's how acceptance is for everyone who applied PT this year. You're "provisionally accepted" and then you receive an official acceptance after you apply for scholarships and complete the interview process for that. In the letter, it says you can also request your official acceptance now if you don't want to apply for scholarships.
Ahhh gotcha. Thanks for shedding some light on that

Congrats to all who got in! I know it's early but if any of y'all are female summer starters who are going to be looking to sublet a place just for the summer before getting fully settled (or a fall starter who wants to move to Durham over the summer), shoot me a PM. I've got half my house available.

We do summer start for folks who are doing dual degrees (mostly JD/LLMs or JD/MAs).

Anyone know when non-PT will go UR? I think I was right under the cut-off for PT, so my chances are probably slim anyway, but just curious.

Same here.

I don't think PT is really that indicative. Plenty of PT folks are PR, and plenty of non-PT get in.

Good to know. Thanks y'all.

Is it possible for Duke to revoke an offer of provisional admittance? I can't decide if I should retake the LSAT on Saturday... I'm worried if I do worse, Duke might revoke the offer since I heard LSAC automatically sends score reports :( Also, praying if I do better, I might be able to get a better scholarship/financial aid package!

They won't revoke for that. Just take the test. Only upside here.

if you hide things in the spreadsheets, it doesn't just hide them for you, it hides them for everybody, and then it messes up the data. PLEASE DON'T HIDE COLUMNS IN THE SPREADSHEETS

(don't mind me just spamming this everywhere bc it's messing up literally every single spreadsheet right now)

just got an email from duke law telling me to update/confirm my address because they tried sending me mail but it got returned. That's a detail I'll sort out with them soon - but my question is, what would they be trying to mail me? I received my acceptance packet sometime in October. Has anyone gotten more snail mail from Duke after the admit package?

This is a stupid question, but when filling out the Duke Law Application Form after being provisionally accepted, an electronic signature is fine, right? No need to print, sign, and scan?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
