Does anyone know what the post-interview acceptance rate is?

Does anyone know what the post-interview acceptance rate is?

I think it’s a little under 40%

Cannot confirm. They said they would be targeting the week of the 22nd for decisions but traditionally release decisions around next week.

Longest 7-14 days of my life.

 

[toastedbutter]

MSAR says Feb 16, that's going to be a hell of a day

I so cannot relate to this

Would it be out of pocket to email the admissions office some point in the next few days and ask if they've settled on a date to release decisions?

 

[sillychemistry]

I spoke with someone from admissions this past week and they said the committee was meeting one last time this week and decisions would be released shortly after. So I think end of next week is a safe bet based on previous years and this. I prob wouldn’t call and would just sit tight 🙂

Their website says accepted students will be notified by phone call in Feb 2024.

Yes

Yes but if you do ask let us know 🫣

Do people think it's going to be tomorrow? I read earlier in the thread that Dr. Yee said they were aiming for Feb 20th...

My guess is this or next Friday since over the past few years it’s usually been one of the last two Fridays of February

 

[misterslack]

Didn’t they come out Thursday 2/16 last year?

only acceptances, so maybe it’s possible calls start going out either tomorrow or the 22nd?

 

[CRISPRi]

Didn’t they come out Thursday 2/16 last year?

i guess but it’s so random year to year that deluding myself into thinking its at the end of the week makes the wait easier

 

[ByThe+C]

I didn't see anybody post them in the earlier pages, so I'm leaving the previous acceptance call dates since 2019:

Fri, Feb 22, 2019
Wed, Feb 12, 2020
Fri, Feb 26, 2021
Fri, Feb 18, 2022
Thu, Feb 16, 2023

 

[sillychemistry]

Crossing me fingies for us all

 

[mylittlerowboat]

I feel like judging by the fact no calls have been reported yet, it's not today...

 

[CRISPRi]

Glad to see the neuroticism for this thread is finally starting to pick up lol

 

[Holland]

Cringing as I remember some of my stations here.... Not expecting much but hoping I'll be pleasantly surprised

 

[FortuneDoesntFavorFools]

Are we going to continue the tradition of posting that “today is the day!” GIF of the starfish from Finding Nemo daily? Every previous Duke thread seems to have done that 🤭

 

[shy_hulud]

Holy ****, OOS A! Phone call from a 704 NC phone number, just got the email as well (regular MD, not PCLT)

I just sent them an update with a screenshot of my $100k bet for Duke winning March Madness and a selfie of my new Blue Devils' face tattoo, which probably helped. Although they also said that if I remove my fresh ink, they'll revoke my acceptance.

Read the room my guy

 

[mylittlerowboat]

soooo are we thinking it's one more week or one more day?

i remember in my interview, dr. yee said earliest, sending out acceptances feb 16th (ish), and latest feb 23rd. he said most likely the week of feb 18th will be when we could expect acceptances

 

[WaluigiWAH]

YIKES, I forgot that having a sense of humor was a no go on here😚

we still got 12 hours (or anxiety) left in the day...

 

[mylittlerowboat]

maybe they're going on cst lol

 

[Thanks4Playing Bye]

So if it doesn’t come today, will it definitely be next Friday or would it be random throughout that next week?

 

[Holland]

Could be either. All we know is next Friday by the latest

 

[mylittlerowboat]

okay so MSAR says that earliest acceptances released is feb 16th. i thought that meant they are definitely sending out stuff starting feb 16th. the other dates on different schools align with that. or it is a range?

I’m not sure where msar gets that info but it’s been right and wrong for some schools so definitely take it with a grain of salt.

yeah... that makes sense! thanks 🙂

 

[toastedbutter]

Msar said Feb 12 as earliest for Mayo, for example, even though we were clearly told Feb 19 by Mayo themselves. So yeah maybe not completely accurate

 

[CRISPRi]

Today not the day huh

 

[Thanks4Playing Bye]

Well now that we pretty much know it’ll be next week do you guys mind sharing when did you guys get interviewed?

 

[misterslack]

so instead of 2 anxiety-inducing days this week we get potentially 5 next week!!

Dang you right

 

[Holland]

Thinking about that previous post, would any of you guys actually get a Blue Devil face tattoo (or any T5's respective mascot/emblem for that matter) for guaranteed acceptance at that school? Interesting thought experiment

Hmmm. How big and where? Could I do the school emblem in a small size behind my ear?

I'd absolutely get a tramp stamp though but only if they gave me a scholarship

At least 1.5x1.5" and needs to be on a visible part of your face. However, your circumstances are made known to others and it's guaranteed not to be a problem in terms of professionalism/career
