How late do calls typically go?
It's hard to tell by looking at last year's thread, since some people will post that they were accepted a little later. From people that actually posted the time they were accepted, looks like they called until about 4 PM EST. Someone said one of their callers had 30 or so people to call, so it will take a while. Last year calls didn't seem to start until 2 PM EST, though, so it may be different this year.
 
Accepted 🙂 Honored to have the opportunity to attend. Hoping to meet y'all at Second Look!

Wishing all of you waiting to hear back good news soon!

Also, as an aside, I know others have said this but @DBC03 you are perhaps one of the best people on SDN. Keep doing what you're doing!!!

Any advice for coping with the stress of waiting? LOL

It is 3:20 on the east coast and they have ~300 calls to make. I don't think it is over. Wouldn't be surprised if they call into the weekend either but not counting on it.
 
Current Duke student here. I thought I hadn't gotten in because I didn't get a call on Friday, but got a random email the following Monday congratulating me on my acceptance, fwiw. Congrats to everyone accepted, and fingers crossed for all of you still waiting to hear!

Hate that they keep us hanging over the weekend tho. Wonder why they don’t call everyone?
