2013-2014 Duke University Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I was rejected way back when pre-interview, but good luck today guys! May the force be with you and the odds, ever in your favor. May you always beat the troll senseless and later tonight, revel in drunken (or sober, whichever you prefer) celebration or dgaf-ness. Hang in there!
 
C'mon guys we gotta take it easy, I'm also in your shoes but a little humor won't kill us !
 
So nobody has heard anything? Maybe we will have to wait until Monday.
Just a thought, but someone posted on here saying the committee was meeting today so maybe the decisions will be out later than they normally are. I hope the MS1 who posted saying they would be out today is right!
 
I called and it didn't sound like they were going to be in today. 🙁
 
by in do you mean the acceptanceS?
I just asked for decisions in general. I didn't give my name so it's not like they'd be dodging me, hopefully. It's equally possible that she just wasn't allowed to say that they're going to be in today. If you think about it, if she had said yes, she knows that I would probably press her for me then everyone else on SDN would after I posted about it lol. So I guess we're back to not knowing anything.... Sorry
 
Well when I called to ask about receiving my update, she said next week for acceptances... So maybe that's it.
 
She said that they would come out soon and that she didn't know anything about them coming out today.
 
That's so weird. I called on Tuesday and the office told me definitely Friday...
 
Going to call it at 1 pm EST and anxiously wait for next week if no one has heard anything by then.
 
Just sayin....I got my interview invite on a Saturday so who's to say decisions won't come out tomorrow?
 
Darnit I just want some good news before this weekend starts and a Duke-centric bracket this year. Give me that RW!
 
My friend who's an ms1 at duke told me just now that admissions is still finalizing the decisions so none have been released yet. they're hoping to put them out this afternoon but most likely decisions won't be out till Monday.
Merp I just realized it's already 1:30 EST.
 
Or maybe someone could call again...although they have probably just unplugged their phones at this point haha.
 
I hope you make it too, even if you are a bloody Barca fan.
Hey at least they aren't 18 games below .500 😀😀😀

Weekend release? Don't they know that this could be one of the most important emails of my life?! Today! Today!
 
Quick update:

Y'all *might* have to wait until Monday. The adcom is still deliberating over a couple applications!

From the info they gave me, this will be an incredibly competitive class! The numbers point to ~25% acceptance rate post-interview.

Good luck everyone! We're aiming for a class of 115 people!
 
Just called! She seemed hopeful about a weekend release. I guess we'll all be anxious this whole weekend anyway.

ack. I am going to be a nervous wreck this weekend. And I finished House of Cards already! Maybe I'll go to the gym and run until I wear myself out haha

Oh man, maybe I'd rather not hear then...
 
Sorry guys, I think they're probably just arguing over my application: reject or bottom of the waitlist?
 
Yeahh, during my interview we were told 550 ish as well.
