Hey! I applied at the beginning of August, had my interview September 17th, and received my acceptance September 24th!
thanks for the info and congratulations on the acceptance!! i would love to go to duke and i know you'll have a great time in durham!
Thank you so much! I’m sure you will get in also! Keep me updated!!
Hi! Congratulations! So basically the interview process is a virtual tour, a Q and A session with former and current DPT students, two 15 minute individual interviews and one team based learning activity where they put you into a group and ask you a question and everyone has to work together to answer it. There are no right or wrong answers. I was extremely nervous going into the interview but several of the professors and admissions board members said that they were nervous as well and to just relax and be ourselves. They only have 1 or 2 questions prepared for you in the individual interviews and again, there is really no right or wrong answer. I second guessed myself constantly after the interview but reminded myself that I did my best in the moment and stayed true to myself and I ended up being accepted! You will do amazing! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions!
Hey! I'll also be in 2025, feel free to message me 🙂
Congratulations on your acceptance! Thank you so much for the feedback, I am looking forward to speaking with the faculty and students!
Such great information! Curiously, about how many people are in each group?
I honestly don’t remember too well. I would say in my group interview there were maybe 8-10 people!
I just got my interview invitation for the next interview day!
Did you attend the interview last week? I haven’t heard anything from them and I’m getting a little stressed
Nothing here either? Thought I’d hear today! So much anxiety!
Well hopefully it’s a good sign that none of us have heard anything, lol
Yay!!! So excited for you!
Congratulations! I also got an acceptance email!
I got a phone call around 1pm on Thursday and an email at 7:30 pm on Friday (11/5).
How was the interview?? I have one coming up this week.
The team portion was way less scary than I expected and the professors during the two one-on-one interviews were really nice! There was lots of time for questions too if you have them. Best of luck to you!!
I think we will probably hear back by the end of the week. Just a hunch but I haven't heard anything yet.
Do you mind me asking if the questions in the individual interviews were behavioral questions or more generic "tell me about yourself" questions?
Honestly there were only like one or two questions and maybe more behavioral/situational? They were fairly short like 15 min or so and it wasn't very structured so you could talk about whatever you wanted to!
Sorry to bother you about it but have you heard back yet? I am so nervous because it sounded like people from previous interview days got a call on Thursday and email on Friday but I haven't gotten a call yet...
No worries! I haven’t heard anything either and am also mildly panicking lol. I looked back in these forums and sometimes it seems they don’t notify until Saturday. I am hoping that is the case this time!
Ahh, well it's a relief that we're in the same boat and I think we'll be fine! It's so hard not to get paranoid but in reality we have no idea when they'll notify us HAHA thank you for the reassurance.
I heard back today and got in, hope you get positive news too!!!
Congratulations! And yes, my interviewer called me at 1 pm PST and I got the email right after! 🙂 Excited to be classmates!!
I was accepted back in December and I actually just recently toured the campus. During my tour, I actually ran into Dr. Clendaniels in admissions and he mentioned something about how he was calling people who hadn't paid their deposits yet to get a clear answer from them. He said he was calling people off of the waiting list as soon as people turned down their spots. This led me believe that they are getting close to filling their class if they are already calling people off the waitlist. I don't want to scare you or give you false information, but that was just my interpretation. I just turned down my spot, so I really hope it goes to you or someone else who's still waiting.
I JUST got an email saying that my app is still being considered. Kinda late tbh especially since their is whole the interview process. I was expecting it to be a rejection email.
i just got this email today too, and not really sure what it means ...
I also got the same email. I am thinking we are in the maybe pile...
Ditto on having the same email. This is odd
I got the same email as well haha. When did you guys submit your app, I did mine pretty close to the deadline which is why I’m guessing my decision is so late with the rolling admissions.
I did too! I had so much going on and I knew Duke was a stretch but went for it haha
I also applied close to the deadline and got that email as well. I was very confused when I read it because I had no idea what they meant haha
Does anyone have any updates on the email we recieved?
Second this. The Facebook group has like 102 members though so I’m pretty sure we are out of luck and they are just keeping us around for insurance if people back out.
