2019-2020 Duke

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Can someone new call and ask if As are still going out tomorrow
 
This is so cruel. I’d rather they just tell everyone all at one time through a portal update instead of this drama of calling people.
Yes, I've spent a lot of time thinking about how out-of-touch adcoms are with the experience of the applicant. Duke probably thinks the phone calls are personal and appreciated, but in reality it presents a form of cruel agony to a majority of their interviewees. There has to be a better way to do things...

But honestly I'm imposing this cruel agony on myself by even being on SDN 😉
 
Got the acceptance call today! Anyone know how good financial aid at Duke is? The person who called me said that financial packages won't be available until after second look, which is March 13-15th


Same. I got the call today as well. I was kinda bummed that financial aid comes out then.

I totally agree!!!!!!!
 
I am so happy and excited to be accepted to Duke, and the PCLT. I’m still a little in shock, it was so sweet to be able to call my mom and dad to share the news. Now just have a hard decision between Duke and my state school/proximity to girlfriend.

congratulations!!! seems like your options are great, either way!
did you just get the call?
 
I wonder if they won't start calls until the afternoon again. Doesn't seem like anyone here has heard anything today so far

Congrats!!! Just out of curiosity (because why not beat the dead horse?), did your essay disappear?
 
Does anyone know if there's an accepted students page/group?? Got the call yesterday 🙂
